I have an event to which only people can register who have a invitation code (unique code for every registration). Can this be done from within Event Espresso?
For now I solved this by using a invitation code plugin for registering to my website first and then make the event members only. But this is not ideal as people first have to register to the site and then again for the event.
Hope you understand and can help?

You could use the ‘groupon’ add-on, which is not actually groupon specific. You can enter codes into the admin which can then be used by the users to register for the event free of charge. You would still need to set a price on the event, say a million dollars, to keep people who didn’t have a code from registering. You could then hide the price in the EE templates, so that it wouldn’t show unless someone without a code tried to register.

Thanks Sidney.
Seems like a good solution.
Do you know a way to make the coupon field a required field in the template? That would make it ideal.

In plugins/espresso-groupon/use_groupon_code.php, change lines 216 and 217 to be:
<label for="groupon_code"><?php _e('Enter Voucher code:','event_espresso'); ?> <em>*</em></label>
<input tabIndex="9" maxLength="25" size="35" type="text" class="required" name="event_espresso_groupon_code" id="groupon_code-<?php echo $event_id;?>">
