Some notes on this code:
The logic in the default email allows for invitations to boards and categories, so we maintained this logic. I don't actually think it's currently possible to invite people to boards / categories (since there's no notion of "membership" on those node types presently?) - but we kept the logic in in our version because it felt odd to remove it.
We have renamed "Group Hubs" to "Groups" throughout our community, so also did that here. Ideally I'd retrieve the text string variable for the name of "Group Hubs" that I already set in the community text (general.grouphub and general.Grouphub) - but I couldn't figure out how to do that.
I couldn't figure out how to uppercase the first letter of my $nodeTypeName variable, so I have the somewhat embarrassing "$nodetypeNameUppercase" variable. If someone knows how to do this within a Khoros email template, please let me know!
