    Solved Help with how to close group to public

    Post by LilaP Wed Nov 30, 2011 12:29 am

    I think my group was messed up by someone
    I noticed there are a couple of things out of place
    I have since fixed it but want to close the group to just anyone joining
    I am trying to close down the group from ppl joining and it won't work for me
    someone by the name of huh??@hushmail.com had joined and left again but something is strange
    thank you

    Does it show that the group is a closed group in the administration panel?

    Administration Panel>>Users & Usergroups>>Groups>>Group Administration

    think I have it now
    I went into users and groups and then users options and put a tick mark in don't allow new members
    see if that works
    thanks
