I am just getting started with JomSocial and want to use it for a site for my extended family -- aunts, uncles, cousins, etc. But I want to limit membership only to family members. Is there a way for members to register, but to prevent access until their membership is validated and approved? I do not want to have a paid subscription, but would like to limit membership only to those with approved access.

Ninja Thank you for your response. However, as I said, I am just getting started with JomSocial. Can you please give me the step-by-step directions to "set the site to invite only mode ..."? Or, if there are already clear directions for such settings such as an instruction manual, please send me the link, and I will read it myself. Thank you!

Hi
Open JomSocial > config > Registration > Invite only > Yes
save it.
Now open Joomla user options > turn off Registration > http://prntscr.com/svlzep
Thank you!
