Hi

I am relative new to WP & Buddypress & so I hope my question does not sound strange. 😉

I created a number of WP Community site users and for a number of reasons would like to send them their login information later. At the same time, I have created a group for this particular group of people. I know there is the usual option of members joining a group on their own, requesting admission or a member inviting them.

Is there however a way for me, the site admin & group admin to go a step further after creating memberships to CREATE GROUP memberships for this group of about 20 – 30 users, before I can then send them the site logins?

As said, for a number of reasons, among which is the fact that MOST of these folks are NOT web savvy & probably have some excuse for not signing up/joining group. We would like however to actively “encourage” them to immediately get involved in important project work by presenting them the site & group membership on a plate, with no excuse from them.

So is there any solution to create group memberships as site admin/group admin? A preliminary search of the buddypress plugins for one that would enable this could not be found, but I am gonna trying looking again.

I would appreciate a quick response to this. I am apparently no programmer & if any code modification is required, would appreciate the snippet & information of where exactly to place it. I am using the newest versions of WP, buddypress, bbforum, etc & the Custom Community theme.

Thank you in advance.
