Invite Only Groups?

[nayastrance]

Hi
I just created a new group and had it set for invite only. I invited a bunch of people and several have responded that the link isn't working for them. I emailed an invite to myself & sure enough the link doesn't show up. I temporarily unlocked the group so people could get on, but how to I manage the private, invite only feature? How do new members join the group once they've been invited? Can I approve new members or how does that work?
I'm used to the features on Tribe, but have moved my group over to Bhuz because a) Tribe has too many problems these days and b) I want to encourage dancers in my area to use the resources on Bhuz more.

help!
Thanks
Jess

There must be a link here that is broken, and needs to be fixed. I will look in to it -- it will take a few days and let you know when it is fixed.

I *think* that even if they can't get the link to work, the invitation is still active, and if they can navigate to the group, bhuz will ask them if they want to join, when they get there. That's what's happened in the past with my invite only group. But it hasn't happened for a while. It's possible that something may have changed when Rosey was upgrading.

Thanks! I un-privated it for now and told folks how to find it on Bhuz. There's no action in the group yet anyways so it doesn't need to be private right now...
