I tried searching for this, but didn't see any topics that expressed exactly what I'm looking for (unless I'm blind - I apologize in advance if this is a duplicate topic). At some point down the line, it would be nice if we could select privacy options for each group.

Some examples:

Upon group creations, if there could be a drop down box with these options...

Open: Members and their posts are visible to everyone (all roles, except if the site is set so guests cannot view groups according to admin preference). Membership granted immediately by clicking "join".

Closed: Group description and member list is visible, but not what members post. Membership by request/approval...group creator handles approvals - and can perhaps designate group mods, but that might be pushing it... :\

Private/Invite Only: Membership by invitation only. Only members can see who is in the group and what they post.

I'm looking for functionality that's more similar to the Facebook or vBulletin forum groups, but I understand there might be other more important features being worked on.

A big thank you to the development team for providing this software as it is! My partners and I are thrilled to have found it :D
