In this short guide, you will learn how you can make your public group a “Request to join” group, and how you can easily approve players to join your group through the app or the website.
Only public groups can be “request to join” groups (private groups, by their private nature, are invite-only groups, so having players request to join is redundant).
Once you create your group, on the app or the website, go to the Settings tab (on the app, click on the ellipsis (…) in the top right corner of your Group’s home page > Under Group Settings, your group must be Public (Private group is toggled off) > Toggle on “Require approval”.
Now, when players find your group, they will click “Request to Join” and await your approval, and you will be notified via a message in the chat box.
You will receive a message in the chat box, that a player wants to join your group.
From your group’s home page, go to your your Members tab > Under the Members heading, click on the Requested tab > Click Approve Request, and the player will be allowed in your group!
