Is there a way to make it so anyone can see the members of a group but the admin has to approve you to join?

Thanks

@amahesh Set the group to private group and it will require approval first before become member

@intimez – good info – thanks.

I also came across this code: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/removing-members-ability-invite-others-to-a-group/#post-48304

Which promises to hide the “invite friend” links (haven’t had success yet…)–

Or you can create a child theme that removes the links from your template… Though really, I agree the system should be more set up like this:

Public — anything goes
Private — only mods and admins can INVITE (not just approve)
Hidden — same as private – only others can’t see

Cheers

hello, I want to make it so you can see the content of the group, you just cant join unless the admin approves
