Inviting to group?

Is there any possible way to invite someone to a group using LSL? Because I have renters that need invites to build on my land but I have to invite them personally to give them an invite.

No, there is no LSL command to invite to groups, only avatars can do that. There are two possible solutions:

1. Use a script that, when touched, creates a list of people who would like to join your group. You can then send them invites at your leisure. I have such a script that:
-- Allows a "group manager" (which can be either you or someone else) to manage group invites
-- In addition to compiling a list of people touching the Group Invite object, sends the "group manager" an IM letting them know the person wants to join.
-- Prunes the list if the script runs out of memory (so it never stops working)
-- Is controlled by chat commands on a channel of your choosing.

Let me know if you want this. You can also buy these -- there are a few on SLX, I think.

2. Buy a system that includes a bot that does the invites automatically when it gets notification from an object like that above.

LSL can not invite someone to a group. You can have it send you a message when they need added though, and I have heard (not seen or used) that a bot can be created that can do that for you - but not with LSL.

I think if you search products for sale, there's a few people offering group invite bots... the caveat being that the bot has to be in the group too

What is there is a group with open membership, and you simply want a script to open your group profile when they touch the object, so that they can join themselves quickly?

AFAIK the only window you can open for a user on touch is the map window, you can't even work around it by deeding the object to the group and going through inspect...

Actually, there is a script in world that auto adds to a group. It's 5000L and you have to have an alt on 24/7 for it to operate. The alt is given group add privileges. Check out detail at Cassini Creations or do a search for the finished version Subscribomatic.

That isn't a script. It is a bot.

Nope, you can't invite people to a group nor check what their group role is using LSL. For that, you'll need a bot, some of which are available on onrez.com

Its a script and a bot.

I use a simple script in a prim that sends a msg in chat when someone touches it, so that he knows his request was sent, and it sends me too a private msg in chat to know who touched this prim, so when i see the msg, i send him or her the group tag.
If I'm not online, requests are saved and I get all the group demands when I come back online.
It works good, if you are interested in, please contact me inworld

Just something I use for group invites. Sends an email to wherever I want and then once a day I can add new members. You can also set it for IMs. Works great.

string addy = "youraddress@abc.net";

default
{
state_entry()    
{
llSetText("Touch to Join........", <1.0,1.0,1.0>, 1);
}

on_rez(integer start_param)
{
llResetScript();
}          
                        
touch_start(integer num)
{
llSay(0, llDetectedName(0) + ", your request to join.... has been accepted. You will receive an invite within 24 hours. Have a great SL day!"); 

//llInstantMessage(llGetOwner(), llDetectedName(0) + " would like to join.......Group.");

llEmail(addy,"........Group Invitation", llDetectedName(0) + " would like to join.......");
}
}

So it isn't a script that auto adds to a group.

Now Zena, what needs changed in your script to be set to IM notification?

hey you got your bot in my chocolate!! (ordinal, i love you, and i never got back to the other thread long ago - i know you were just postulating) good for you, and good to remind me)

would be nice to have more 'group' hooks, looks like there are things cooking up for that, i think... i keep coming across things in lsl wiki and forums lately about the topic. so maybe not now, but soon

correction, it's a script that tells the bot what to do, the bot does the inviting, since there is no way to invite via a script in LSL.... YET.

I may have a way, but I'm still working out details... let's just call it an inspired hack....

To change to an IM notification, simply uncomment the IM line and comment out the EMAIL line ( or leave both uncommented to have IM and EMAIL notification ).

Here's just IM;

string addy = "youraddress@abc.net";

default
{
state_entry() 
{
llSetText("Touch to Join........", <1.0,1.0,1.0>, 1);
}

on_rez(integer start_param)
{
llResetScript();
} 

touch_start(integer num)
{
llSay(0, llDetectedName(0) + ", your request to join.... has been accepted. You will receive an invite within 24 hours. Have a great SL day!"); 

llInstantMessage(llGetOwner(), llDetectedName(0) + " would like to join.......Group.");

//llEmail(addy,"........Group Invitation", llDetectedName(0) + " would like to join.......");
}
}
