How to share a server with a friend

You can give a friend access to help manage your game server right from the control panel. Your friend does not need to create an AleForge account first. Inviting their email from your server’s Users page automatically sets up their panel access.

This is separate from billing contacts, which are for your billing account.

Invite a friend to your server

1. Log in to the AleForge Panel and select your server.
2. Click Users in the sidebar.
3. Click New User, enter your friend’s email address, and check the permissions you want them to have.
4. Click Invite User.

How your friend logs in

1. Your friend will receive an email letting them know they’ve been added to the server, with a link to set their panel password.
2. If they need a new password link later, they can go to panel.aleforge.net/auth/password (or click Forgot Password? on the panel login page) and enter the email address you invited.
3. They sign in at panel.aleforge.net using their email and panel password.

Because a panel invite doesn’t create a billing account, invited users should sign in with their email and panel password on the panel login form rather than clicking Login with AleForge (which is for billing accounts). See How do I log in to the Game Panel?.

What invited users can see

A panel invite only shares that specific server with the permissions you selected. Other users on the server can see the invited user’s username and email address. Your billing name, home address, payment methods, and invoices stay private unless you separately add that person under billing User Management.
