Organic Groups confusion

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

Hello,

I'm trying to build a social network with private groups. Only an administrator (me) can make the groups and invite members. Users of one group cannot see or be a part of the other groups.

I am using Drupal 6 and organic groups. I created 2 groups, and when I click "Groups" in the navigation, it does not show any groups. When I click "My Groups", it shows only one of the groups!

I don't understand why it's not showing both groups in the main "Groups" listing, and why it only shows one group as "My Group." I also need the ability to invite members, but that option is not there, either.

I need help... somebody?

Comments

please?

Can someone please point me in the right direction? The documentation I can find does not help me.

Check to see if you chose to

Check to see if you chose to show the groups in the group directory (which you cannot do if you opt to make the groups private, and/or with private homepages).

You might need to create a custom view that shows your groups, and just show that to admins, to replicate the functionality of the directory in your case.

Cheers,

Bill

Ah - so even if I'm an admin, it won't show it if they're private? That sounds odd.
