Someone correct me but I think that invite-only social groups are still visible to all, but only the members of the group can participate in it.

I'll go create one and not invite anyone just as a test.

Cindy, I can see it and click on the links. I can't post though unless you invite me to the group.

You are right. I can read it.

I made a moderation one. Not sure about what that means or if it can be seen.

There is a tab to approve posts. Maybe only members of the group can post to it?

Better let my mom do this. I'm supposed to be cleaning my room.

hmmm, I assumed that private would be private, meaning it wouldn't show to all...only show to the ones that joined...

Hi Jo.

The 3 tabs I got when I made the group, were invite, public and moderation. I didn't see one that said private.

Maybe it has to do with the following?

Group Options
Enable Albums
Enable Messages


Maybe you have to not click on enable messages? Would that keep the group invisible?
