Group Invitations 101

This ‘How To’ is going to be quick and easy, but its fun and can benefit someone you know here in the Community. If you don’t already know, you can invite people to join a group you think would benefit them. This is especially good for those of you who have been here a while seeing as you can help the new Community Members/Traders find groups that would help them further their trading journey. Click Here to view these steps with a visual.

To invite a member to join a group, follow the steps below:

  1. From the member’s profile click Invite to Group within the Control Panel.
  2. When the invitation box appears, scroll to the right and use the drop down menu to choose a group in which to invite the member to join. TIP: You will only be able to invite people to groups you are a member of.
  3. After choosing a group, scroll back to the left and click Submit.

Close the invitation box and you now invited that member to join the group! You may want to follow up with a personal message and friend request.
