Devise invitable

Hello,

Does anyone know a tutorial on how to implement devise with devise invitable in order to allow users to invite other users? I read their documentation, but I am not convinced on how to create a view which will allow users to invite other users.

Thank you

In the end I did something, but I altered my Users table, and added few columns for storing t.string "invitation_token", :limit => 60 t.datetime "invitation_sent_at" t.datetime "invitation_accepted_at" t.integer "invitation_limit" t.integer "invited_by_id" t.string "invited_by_type"

Is this a good approach, or should I have a different table storing those and linking with the User table?

Thank you

Hey Alex Alex I would probably put that in a separate table. It's different information so it could be considered its own entity.
