Add/remove member
There are a couple of ways in which members can enter your group.
Added directly

Find the Virtual Organization via the Filter by name field and click on the row with the organization.
2
Select Groups.
3
Click on the group to which you want to add a new member.
4
Select members.
5

6
Search for the user you want to add via the Search user by name, login or email field.
Then check the radio button and choose Add.
7
If you want to check the addition of a user, search for it in the current group via the Search user by name, login or email field.
8
If you want to remove a member from a group, simply click on the box next to his/her name and confirm it with “remove” button.
Added indirectly (via subgroup)
Users gain membership in your group when they become members of subgroups under your group. This membership is indirect, and you can recognise it in the row Type by the icon. When you hover over the icon, you are shown what type of membership it is. First icon is direct, second indirect, third is both (user is a member of your group and subgroup). You can see more details by clicking on those icons.
Via application form
Users can ask for membership by clicking on the provided link (gained via direct invitation, requirement of service, etc.), filling the required fields and submitting the application.
The application is either approved automatically or manually.
When users are approved automatically, they will become members immediately after complying with all the necessary requirements (i.e. filling all required forms, possible email verification)
When users are approved manually, administrators will receive an email with a link stating that there is a pending application for their group. Once they approve your application in the system, users will become members of a group and depending on how the Notifications are set up, they might be informed via email if their application was approved or rejected.
Via invitation
When your group has set up Notifications for email-type invitations/users, you can invite users from the Members by clicking on the button Invite. You can also use the option Invite multiple members, where you paste from your table multiple emails in the format email;name or email. Users will receive an invitation to your group and apply for membership.
Via pre-approved invitation
You will proceed similarly to gaining membership via invitation, with two differences.
You need to set up Notifications for email-type invitations (preapproved)/user, and then invite via the option Invite preapproved member or Invite multiple preapproved members.
When you invite them this way, users will still receive an invitation to your group and have to apply for membership, but as they have been preapproved, they will gain membership by submitting the application.
