Resend the pending invitations.
Chris Taklis PublicSeen by 88In our group we have some pending memberships, can somehow we resend it and not just cancel it and add them again or copy the invitation link and send it via email.???
Sorry, You can't just resend it via loomio.
The rationale is that it was already sent exactly like that. If they did not get it then sending it again is unlikely to help.
So we provide the invitation link for someone to personally send to them, as a way around a potentially undeliverable email situation.
Hey @christaklis and @robertguthrie Fully understand the justification, though I do see where Chris is coming from. With invitations hanging in the ether, it can be hard to know why they haven't been accepted.
In this vein -- and apologies for the newbie question -- are there plans for (or have there been discussions about and reasons for not) building the capacity for invite-recipients to actively decline the invitation?
From my end, this would help filter the 'I don't wanna join your group' folks from the 'I get 1000 emails a day and will need to be personally prodded and reminded' folks.
Thanks!
That's a good question @mattmcgregor ! I'll let @robertguthrie answer it for you. Meanwhile, I'm going to move this discussion into the feature ideas group.
Yea, it is a good question. It's not an immediate priority however. Would be happy to accept a pull request for this.
Despite the rationale @robertguthrie gave, I still think that being able to re-send from within Loomio (perhaps with a different subject) is an absolutely essential and sorely missing feature. Is this still the correct place to ask for the feature?
We've been discussing this feature recently; it will happen, and fairly soon I believe.
@gdpelican HELP! This feature was there and was used a lot in our newly forming group. Now it is gone, with only 'make coordinator' (?!) and 'cancel invitation' as options in the list. Please restore it to the contextual menus! If we can cancel, of course we should be able to re-send.
Alright, this feature is now back and better than ever, including the ability to see the email addresses of people who you've invited to the group (email addresses invited by other people will still be obfuscated :) )
@robertguthrie might be able to answer this?
