How do I join a group?
Join a public group straight away, or ask to join a private one.
Open the group and press Join Group. What happens next depends on the kind of group.
Public groups
You join straight away. You can now use all its sections.
Private groups
Pressing Join Group sends a request to the group's managers. You see Join request submitted. You are told when a manager accepts you.
While you wait, the button shows Cancel Join Request. Press it if you change your mind.
Secret groups
Secret groups do not appear in the list. You can only join one if a manager invites you.
What you can see before you join
Before you join, you can see the group's name, description and member count. The posts, discussions, files and other sections are only for members. You see Members Only or Join to see the feed until you join.
