Hi,
I have created a public forum.
I would like now to create categories only open to people who will have subscribed to one for my training courses.
I read the best way to do it is to create a group and allow this group on a Category.
But how can the users subscribe to this group?
Can I automatically send them a link, a password, an invitation?
Thanks.
Ced.
Hello on the group press this:
Add Members
In addition regarding
there are may settings for this you can play around with:
Welcome to the official discourse community!
What you are trying to do is allowing a specific group to see/create/reply in a specific category.
Fortunately for you, there are many options for groups. When you create a group, you can go to the settings and edit it to be public, private, or join by request. If you select the third option, a message will be sent to the owner(s) of the group and they will choose whether to allow the user to join the group or reject the application. If you want to have a group, where anyone can join, you just select the second option.
Configure private / closed group access, membership and visibility gives details about setting up a group so that users can access it. (That topic needs to be renamed and/or linked to other howto topics so that it is more easily searchable.)
Site admins and group owners can invite users to Discourse and include a list of group names in the invite. Users will be automatically added to the groups when they accept the invitation. This topic gives more details: Configure how users can create and send invites for others to join your community.
Another way to add users to a group is to use the Data Explorer plugin to write a query that returns a list of usernames or email addresses of users who should be added to a group. The results of the query can be copied into the groupâs Bulk Add to Group form.
Users can also be added to groups through the Discourse API.
Is there any Zapier integration?
There is a search feature. Adding howto to the words often helps.
I see that I can create a link to allow people to join the group but this link is not generic, it is specific to an email address or user.
Is there anyway to create a link for the group that would work for anyone I would send the email to?
Sou administrador do meu discourse em talk.newpathconsulting.com. Quando olho para um grupo que criei hå um tempo, "staff", não consigo adicionar membros ou alterar quaisquer configuraçÔes relacionadas a quem pode entrar. Quando crio um novo grupo, posso definir essas configuraçÔes.
O que pode estar errado? Aqui estĂĄ a minha interface de administração de grupo â âadicionar membrosâ estĂĄ faltandoâŠ
âStaffâ Ă© um grupo automĂĄtico para administradores e moderadores. VocĂȘ tem certeza de que criou o seu, ou reutilizou o existente? Pode ser que o que vocĂȘ criou agora seja tratado da mesma forma que a versĂŁo nĂŁo personalizĂĄvel.
VocĂȘ pode criar um novo em vez disso?
Talvez eu tenha usado o existente. Faz tanto tempo â vou tentar criar um novo que inclua a equipe do nosso time.
VocĂȘ tambĂ©m poderia tornar esses membros moderadores ou administradores e, em seguida, eles apareceriam nesse grupo.
Mas vocĂȘ pode preferir criar um novo grupo que seja apenas para sua equipe (talvez vocĂȘ nĂŁo queira que todos os membros da sua equipe sejam um membro âstaffâ do Discourse como moderador ou administrador).
VocĂȘ tambĂ©m poderia configurar o grupo para que pessoas com um endereço de e-mail da sua organização fossem automaticamente adicionadas ao grupo.
