Inviting people to groups without friendship requests

[DiegoBRRSPF]

Hi!

As I understand, in order to allow us to send users invitations to a group, its mandatory to have the “Friend Connections” BP component enabled.

But, in my case, this don’t make sense. We have a company community and as it is used by all of our employees, well, anyone is friend of anyone 🙂

So, right after I create a group, it’s important to just invite the people I want to participate on the group. For example: I created a group “Business Opportunities”. I already know who needs to be included, so I just need to invite them. But, today, first I have to make the friendship connection in order to allow that…

Is there a option to invite people to groups without the friendship connections, or a workaround for this?

Thanks!

Oh, I almost forgot: I know that I can add members to a group through the WordPress admin, but I don’t want to give this access for the users.

I think an excellent option would be have a “Add member” button on the attached screen (section “Manage” of the group).
