Group Directory

Administrators: You are viewing User instructions for this module. For Administrator instructions, go here.

Selecting the Group and Club Finder option from the menu displays a screen similar to the following:

This module provides three search options:

• By the first letter of the interest group or club (chapter);
• Anywhere in the title of the interest group or club;
• Based on the category.

Click the Search button to display matching interest groups and clubs, sorted in alphabetical order by group name. Each group is shown with its title and category, and a short description.

On the right side of each panel is one of 4 options:

• If the module is displayed on the public side of the website (the member is not logged in), it will be blank.
• If the member is logged in and:
  • They are a member of that group/club, the text says "You are a member of this group". An "UnJoin" button is also shown. Clicking the button prompts for confirmation and removes the member from that group/club.
  • They are not a member of an interest group, the text says "No Fee". A "Join" button is also shown. Clicking the button joins the member to that group and the screen immediately refreshes.
  • They are not a member of a club, the text says something like "$20 fee to Join", pulling the fee information from the club's configuration. A "Join" button is also shown. Clicking the button adds the member to that club and takes them to the Payment Page where a misc. transaction is waiting to be paid.

In both cases, the group coordinator receives an email notifying him or her that someone has joined the group.
