Send request to admin instead of owners

[Francois_Douville (François Douville)]

I am not a member of the group and there is no owner right now. Would it be possible to add a feature that send the request to me (admin) instead of owners?

Thanks

You don’t have to be a member of the group to be the owner of a group (IIRC)

How can I add me as a owner and not a member?

I might be wrong, this is what I was thinking of (there may be other topics), but I can’t quite figure out if it is implemented

Group owners should not necessarily be group members

On my site I have a use case for people being given the privilege of managing group membership without being a member of the group themselves. I assumed this is how it worked and was surprised to see that someone I added as group manager is now also a group member. The use case? We use groups to assign badges. And to give access to private categories. And the people responsible for doing this are not always group members. Edit: having noticed this, I then removed some group owners only to real…

Yup, nevermind, it seems it isn’t implemented. Therefore, if a group doesn’t have an owner the request message goes nowhere.
