wrong invite/join behavior of groups (Trac #572)

[elgg-gitbot]

Original ticket http://trac.elgg.org/ticket/572 on 38888049-09-06 by trac user fuhrmara@..., assigned to unknown.

Elgg version: 1.1

The behavior of invite/join in groups is wrong.

This must be set to :

if the membership is set to privat

• only the owner (and the members) can invite other users. This doesn't depends an the access state. Join or request to join isn't allowed.

if the membership is set to privat

• it depends to the access state
  • if access is set to public/logged in users => all logged in user can join the group
  • if access is set to members only => logged in users can request to join the group

I think a combination of membership 'privat' and access 'privat' is nothing what a groups need. because this was only a one man group. so it isn't a group.
