User’s creating groups?

    Pre-install question:

    Is it possible to allow all users to create groups and manage who goes into those groups with this plugin? So if a person created a group, they would be the admin for that group and decide who is part of the group. Hope that makes sense.

    Thanks!

    Hi David,

    Many thanks for the question! It’s in line with other similar requests, and I couldn’t agree more that having this would be great. It’s not available yet though and I wanted to go into more details about it, which I’ve done in this post: https://www.itthinx.com/2022/10/14/users-managing-wordpress-groups/ (way to large to post here IMO, thus the post).

    Please have a look and share your thoughts if you like.

    Cheers

    Personally, I don’t want everyone to be able to create groups, because this could lead to duplicate groups. The whole purpose of groups on my particular website(s), is to bring people of like-mind & like-heart, who live near each other, “together”… rather than facilitate their separation from one another. So, even if you offer the “anyone can create a group” feature, I hope you will still continue to offer the current version that does not let anyone create a group. I think it would be nice to offer it as an add-on/extension. Namaste!

    @magnetic66 Thanks for your input! Yes, I agree with you, the way things work should be kept as they are, not allowing anyone to create a group, even if we were to have such a possibility built-in or via an add-on.

    Thanks for clarifying your viewpoint Kento. I feel better knowing that I will be able to keep things as they are on my site.
