Find and join a group

Every group has its own page: what it's about, who's in it, and the events it serves on. From there you can join it, ask to join, or leave.

A group's page

Select a group on the Groups page or on someone's profile.

123456

• About 1 (marker 1 on the screenshot): the group's description.
• Upcoming and Previous 2 (marker 2 on the screenshot): the next 5 and the last 5 events that use this group (signed in only). Select one to see it. The owner and admins also see History.
• Members 3 (marker 3 on the screenshot): select a face to open that person's profile.
• Additional Info 4 (marker 4 on the screenshot): the address (it opens in Google Maps), the owner, the privacy and when the group was created.
• Tags 5 (marker 5 on the screenshot): select one to see every group with it.
• Leave group 6 (marker 6 on the screenshot) once you're in (and, for staff and admins, Edit group).

Join a group

Open the group and select the button at the top. It depends on the group's privacy:

• Public Group: select Join group. You're in right away. You get a welcome email and the owner gets an email that you joined.
• Restricted Group 1 (marker 1 on the screenshot): select Request to join 2 (marker 2 on the screenshot). The owner gets an email and decides.
• Private Group: there's no button. Ask a staff member to add you.

Not signed in? Select Login to Join.

The page shows Request pending 1 (marker 1 on the screenshot). When the owner accepts, you get a welcome email and the group shows You're a member. If they turn it down, the request just goes away (no email). Changed your mind? Select Cancel request 2 (marker 2 on the screenshot), then confirm.

Leave a group

1. 1
   Open the group and select Leave group.
2. 2
   Select Leave Group to confirm (or Stay).

No one is emailed. If the group is linked to roles on upcoming events, you're taken off those roles too.

On a phone

On a phone, open More in the bottom bar and select Groups 1 (marker 1 on the screenshot). A group's page shows the same sections in one column, with the join or leave button full width under the name.

Don't see a group?

• It's private. Private groups only show to their members, their owner and admins. Its link doesn't open for anyone else either.
• A search or tag is on. Clear the search box and select Clear next to the tags.

Why is Upcoming empty?

• A group only lists events where one of its roles is linked to the group. Events its members serve on by themselves aren't listed.
• You need to be signed in.
• For a restricted or private group, only its members, its owner and admins see its events.
