Group Invitations
Using Jamroom

Ceri:1. Is there a way for me to invite all members to a group created by another member?

There is the Invitations module:

https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/networkmarket/291/invitations

but it's not specific the Groups module - but a profile owner could sent out an invite for the group.

Quote:2. As site admin is there a way for my icon to appear in the members list of a group created by another member?

I think if you JOIN the group it will show - since an admin automatically has access to all groups, there's no need to join, but I think if you JOIN the group your image will show.

Let me know if that helps.

I forgot where a certain groups setting is...?
Using Jamroom

I just checked in your database, and you have customized the item_index.tpl file for the groups module and have purposefully excluded the button:

            {*** ADDED: Only allow admins to create groups ***}
            {if jrUser_is_admin()}
                {jrCore_item_index_buttons module="jrGroup" profile_id=$_profile_id}
            {/if}

So you'll want to fix that if you want it to show for your users.

Try saving it again , then reset caches. If that does not work then we'd have to come on to your site and debug the issue since it's working here.

Creating a module to change from the Follow model to the Friend model
Jamroom Developers

Nothing has changed in the followers. If a profile is set to APPROVE followers, when they get a new follower they will get an email that tells them they have a new follower, and give them the option to approve the follower. If they approve the new follower, then a reciprocal follow is created that goes the other direction.

It's a super simple setup and does nothing more that what I have outlined.

Correct - if you don't allow groups then NO groups will show on their profile.

Correct - the follow back is automatic - it's not an option for them - it automatically happens when they accept the follower.

The users CAN change it back so it works like the regular followers model.

I'm going to guess that you customized the buttons in that location and have it hidden. Do this:

- as a master admin visit the Groups page on a profile
- You should see the + button - next to it will be a button that says "configure these buttons and the order they appear in". Click on it.
- for the "Item Create Button" click on "Modify"
- make sure the "group" is set to "profile owners" and save

Reset caches.

Let me know if that helps.

Strumelia:Ok- so do you mean that simply by accepting the 'friend' request, that in itself completes the 2 way connection?
And is there a 'decline' or 'ignore' option when a member receives the 'friend' request?

The friend request is the same request the user gets to "approve" a follower. There is no "decline" or "ignore".

By accepting it adds the receiving user as a follower to the profile they are accepting the follower request from - i.e. it reciprocates the follow.
