I keep having people message me asking to be an administrator to my groups. How are they doing this? Am I missing a section or button when I visit groups? Thanks in advance to anyone who can shed some light on this. Lynn

Hi Bridgette,

Yes have it on till you get as many as you need
you can then accept or deny the applicants.

As soon as you have enough switch it off by using the edit group option.

Hi Lynn

Yes and I tested it with them to make sure it worked.

As group owner right now you may see Administrators (Not Accepting)
on your page if it is on or off this will be corrected so it will be like before where theowner does not see any message.

Well, that certainly was fast. They have already implemented your idea. That is wonderful. Lynn

Thank you so much Bj. I just kept denying them as I didn't even know these people. I am glad that they listened to your request, as that should be an option. Thanks again for answering me. Lynn

Hi Lynn

The reason you are getting unwanted applications at the moment is because when people go to your group next to Administrators is a link saying apply now.
You will not see it when you look at your own group so look at any other group to see what I mean.


The good news is I have requested that this be made switchable just half an hour prior to finding this post.

I requested it as I keep getting applications and I am not looking for admins right now and on the grounds that
