Invite members to a hidden group when friend component is inactive

What does the “hidden group” do when the friend component is inactive? How can I invite members? I don’t seem to be able to do that as there are no friends?? (I like to understand better the functions when the friend component is inactive, e.g. internal message – no adresses show when typing in adress field as their are no friends..)

Did you find what you needed with the Invite Anyone plugin? I tried it once and it appeared to just be a way to send mass emails to users suggesting they join a group.

Invite Anyone does have email functionality, but one of it’s key features is exactly what you are looking for. As the admin of a group (hidden or otherwise), you will see an invite members button that allows you to comb through and checkmark a list of users, or start typing their username in an autocomplete textfield to send invitations. Users receive a notification when they have been invited.

I use this with Friends turned off (I use BP-Followers instead)
