Where do members go to join a usergroup?

[Greeksgal]

I have made a usergroup joinable. Where do members go to join it, I can't find the page? When they join it are they added automatically or is it through "Join Requests" on admincp, in other words, do staff have to validate their join request before they're added? Thanks

I know how to set up usergroups. I'm asking where members go to join them.

Have you considered moving one primary group to another under Users -> Prune/Move Users in the AdminCP?

Not sure if there's a tool to move an entire group from one additional group to another or if it's something your Users can elect to do.

If I understand you correctly, from your forum page, on the navbar, there is a community tab, click that for the dropdown groups..

That's for groups isn't it DemOnstar? I'm asking where members go to join "Usergroups". Like I've made a new usergroup with new permissions and set it as "Joinable". I have a "Join Requests" page in the Admin CP, but I have no idea where to send members so that they can request to join. I don't want their primary group to change...just need to know where they request to join usergroups, not groups. Thanks

Oops, sorry for the confusion..
I didn't know about joinable usergroups..My word, something else I have to learn. Thanks for that..

Ok...if I make a usergroup "public/joinable" then a link appears under Settings called "Permission Groups". Users can join usergroups here...but they go straight into the usergroup and their permissions change automatically, they're not put into a queue to be validated/added, which I expected would appear in "Join Requests" on AdminCP. If I make the usergroup non public/joinable then the "Permissions Groups" link in Settings disappears.

Is there no way to have members request to join a usergroup and be able to add/decline via Join Requests in AdminCP>Usergroups?

The way to make you have to approve users is to go to Usergroup Manager > find that joinable usergroup > select add Usergroup Leader (very right site) and add the name of the moderator that will have permission to approve the users.

Thanks Lynne! So "Permission Groups" under Settings is the only place members can join usergroups?
