Yahoo groups - when I "invite" by pasting in a bunch of emails, it...?

Question

Hi, this is about Yahoo groups - when I "invite" a list of friends to the club by pasting in a bunch of emails, it sets them to active right away, whereas if someone was to join the club by searching for it manually they are set to "pending".

I am fine with this setup of pending, BUT is there any way to set it so that "invited friends" can also be set to "pending".. ?

this is because i have a bunch of files they receive when they register, and one for pending status I am ken to have them read.

Thanks

Answer 1

invited members never go to pending. the idea is you're sending them an invite, assuming you'd then want them as members where as those that scroll past your group through the directory are not invited friends or those you even know; they become pending.

there is no setting to change this. invited members become mebers as soon as they click they link within the invite
