Invite Button

How can I deactivate the option to do this by email for all invitations (e.g. in groups)?

If I got your message correctly, you want to remove the Invite Friends button in the header of the group, right?

You can edit this file: /components/com_community/templates/jomsocial/layouts/groups/single.php

Comment / remove this snippet of code:

<!-- invite friend button -->
<a href="javascript:" class="joms-focus__button--add" onclick="joms.api.groupInvite('<?php echo $group->id; ?>')">
    <?php echo Text::_('COM_COMMUNITY_INVITE_FRIENDS'); ?>
</a>

Thanks for the feedback, but I just want to deactivate the field for the emails, see the red frame in the image.

javanerd I got your point, pls revert above changes. Then you will need to override the layout files in template so your change will not be lost when you update new version of JomSocial.

To override, you copy this file: /components/com_community/templates/jomsocial/layouts/ajax.showinvitation.php

paste into: /templates/your_default_template/html/com_community/layouts/

You may need to create this path if it doesn't exist now.

Then edit this file: /templates/your_default_template/html/com_community/layouts/ajax.showinvitation.php + comment or remove this code:

<?php if ($displayEmail) { ?>
<div>
<span><?php echo Text::_('COM_COMMUNITY_INVITE_BY_EMAIL_TIPS'); ?></span>
<input type="text" class="joms-input" name="emails">
</div>
<?php } ?>
