    I have created a registration plugin with meta-key/value categories. How would I format a direct hyperlink for users to send messages to a group? I plan to mirror these categories to groups and then display a dynamic hyperlink to send a message to everyone in that category.

    Kind Regards

    Can you please try following code to show link

    <a href="<?php echo fep_query_url('newmessage', array('fep_send_to_check' => 'group', 'fep_gm_to' => GROUP_ID ) ); ?>">Send Message</a>

    Change GROUP_ID with your actual group id.

    Let me know.

    I still haven’t got round to trying this method yet. Is there a shortcode for sending messages to groups? I most definately know how to create those easily with the do_shortcode if that is possible?

    Thank you
    Kind Regards

    Yes, you can use my above provided code to create a shortcode using do_shortcode

    Thanks I worked out how to do this from your suggestion above by URL, I did not try the shortcode version yet but that probably doesnt make a difference to my dillemna? This works but only if the user has already manually joined the group prior.

    Is there a way with the dynamic links for the user to add themselves to the group within this same link? It would be convenient in my case if the users could click on one dynamic link that adds them to the chat group and allows them to send the message in one go.

    Thank you
    Kind Regards
