Could you perhaps add a friend inviter tool to Etano or is there one that works with etano already?

Hello Smiley and Maverick, have you successfully installed this onto Etano? I installed it with success, but I have run into one big problem though and it seems that there are no solutions at the Open Inviter forums.

When I import email addresses, select them and then send, I get an error that says:

Email missing
Password missing
Provider missing

Do you know of a solution for this?
Tom

I've never actually used Open Inviter, I only know about them. The problem with inviter scripts is there are so many popular email hosts and SN sites around these days that it becomes a painstaking job constantly trying to update all the plugins because the popular email hosts and SN sites frequently change their API's, which many believe is to try and battle the abuse inviter scripts can create.

There used to be a popular inviter service called "Octazen" which had various subscription plans depending on your needs. However they don't seem to be around anymore, likely because it became too difficult keeping up with constant changes and updates, which I think is also becoming an issue for Open Inviter and why so many people are having problems with the script as seen in their forums.
