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**.

see `your.domain/g/the_group/manage/membership`

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](https://thepavilion.io/t/action-settings/2810) is up to the task (although I’m yet to try it 😅 )

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)

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.
