Some ideas about groups

ufukayyildiz proposed three features for groups:

  1. An approval feature for groups, where admins or moderators approve joining requests.
  2. Auto notifications for admins after adding someone to a group.
  3. Integration between custom fields and groups, allowing users to join groups automatically based on their selected custom fields.

Benjamin_D initially thought these features were already implemented but later acknowledged that they are not.

ufukayyildiz discovered that the approval feature does exist but is not easily accessible and lacks notification functionality. Admins must go to the group’s page to see requests, and notifications can be enabled by adding the admin as an owner of the group.

Benjamin_D suggested using https://thepavilion.io/t/action-settings/2810 for custom field integration, although they haven’t tried it yet.

ufukayyildiz found that making an admin an owner of the group enables notifications for joining requests.

Hi,

Below features can be nice?

  1. Approve feature for groups. Admin or moderators approve a joining request for a group.

  2. Auto notification after added to a group by admin.

  3. Integration between costum fields and groups. For example; there are custom fields on sign up page on my forum like “food engineer” and “chemical engineer”. If someone selects “food engineer” profession on sign up process he/she can join automatically the group food engineers.

Hi !
I’m not sure I understand :thinking: I believe these features are implemented ?
see your.domain/g/the_group/manage/membership

no, there is no these features or i can not see them :slight_smile:

Ha yes, that would be a job for the owners of said group, but I imagine admins or moderators might as well be owners (third option of the access section)

This can be selectable. Admin can allow everyone for joining or require an approving process.

For this one I believe Pavilion is up to the task (although I’m yet to try it :sweat_smile: )

sorry this is already exist.

To see requests admin must go to group’s page. A notification would be nice.

.

Indeed !
And you’d just have to add the admin in the group as an owner to be notified (along with the others owners)

yes.
i had already added “system” as an owner to group but i did not get any notifications for requests. After make an admin an owner of group i have started to get notifications.
