Anyone know of a way to restrict sign-up/registrations to those who are given a specific cod-word?

I’m building a site for a parent association for my daughter’s school and we want to make sure that only those who are parents will be able to create accounts. Having a specific field with a code-word I could control would make things easy.

I’m creating a website built on top of BuddyPress that could be used for a parents association and at the same time act as a fundraiser for the association as well. I’d love to chat to see what you think of what I’m creating.

The secure invites could work also. You could also probably modify a security question plugin to work like this. Usually they ask questions like “What color is grass” or some easy math problem. You could just have the question be, “What’s the code-word?”

Drop me a line, I’d be happy to give you feedback. As it is I think I’m going to have to modify a security mod.
