[SOLVED] how to set group join approval was created by mothersofboys
as I have it now -
a registered user can browse a category, then browse groups and join the group without admin approval.
how/where do I set the permissions level that an admin/moderator has to approve all group creations and registered users joining a group?
on the groups - I have Type set to APPROVAL but as an admin, I am not getting any notification asking for approval when a registered logged in user wants to join a group.
That registered, logged in user is able to join a group with no admin approval.
My 'test' logged in registered user is also able to create a group within a category with no admin approval as well.
How can I fix this to where an admin/moderator has to approval group joins and group creations?
========
I found where to enable approval of creation of a new group -- but where/how to approve the joining of a group?
GJ GroupJive > config > groups > general > approval > enable
My group type is set to APPROVAL but yet registered logged in user is allowed to join the group with no moderator/admin approval.
AND I made a new group after changing this GJ GroupJive > config > groups > general > approval > to be enabled
I created a new group and got the message that said "Please await Group approval." but have yet to receive any notification about this new group being made.
I have my email set in the site global configs
I have set GJ >> Config > notifications > global > notify by > email only
Thanks

As an admin navigate to that group and click Notifications from the menu then set your self to receive notifications.on the groups - I have Type set to APPROVAL but as an admin, I am not getting any notification asking for approval when a registered logged in user wants to join a group.
They'll join, but they'll be Pending state and can't access non-public information of the group. It should have told you that you joined successfully and are awaiting approval. This is confirmed working. If not for you then you've configured something wrong (ensure you're not making everyone a CB Moderator by reviewing moderator usergroup within CB > Configuration > Moderation).That registered, logged in user is able to join a group with no admin approval.
You need to configure your notifications from the notification page while logged in as an admin to receive a notification for this. Notifications are user by user. It does not send a global notification.I created a new group and got the message that said "Please await Group approval." but have yet to receive any notification about this new group being made.

aha! this seems to be working for me now!
Didn't think that these permissions would be set up on the front end...
I have enabled all my categories, groups and nested groups to the notification levels that I want and am receiving emails about users joining, leaving and creating new groups.
thanks again!
