Getting to the "Invite a Friend" Menu

1
Log into the game. Click 'play' and click on one of the worlds you play in. Then, at the bottom of the screen, where all your neighbors are, there are 3 little buttons with symbols on them: the first one is your neighborhood list, the second one is for your guild and the third one is for your friends.

Click on the third button. It will load up the friends list. It should be empty if you are doing this for the first time.

Share the link on your Facebook and your friends and/or family can click it to start playing the game.

Find the symbol of an envelope on the menu. Click on it and unlike the Facebook method, it won't open up a new tab on your browser. Instead, it will appear like this.

Follow the instructions on the menu. Type in the full name of your friend at the top, insert your friend's email address and then insert your full name (not your Forge of Empires username).

Afterwards, click send email and it will reach your friend soon!

Via Twitter

1
Click on the Twitter logo from the "Invite a Friend" menu. You might need to scroll down to see it.

Via Google+

Scroll down in the "Invite a Friend menu" to see the Google logo. Click it.

Wait for it to open a new tab. Below the link is a bar where you enter your friend's email addresses and it will send emails with the link on them from there instead of from the game.

Question

Why don't my friends' names come up when I search for them?

Community Answer

You are probably logged into different servers. Just log out of and back into the game until you can see them.

Warnings

Your friend has to play in the same world as you are sending the invite in, if your friend plays in another world, you have to start in that world or log into it and send an invite there.
