How do I make a space members-only?

I want one space visible only to approved volunteers. I see visibility and join-policy settings — which combination gives me an approval-gated private space?

Adding a small note: the same idea applies on mobile, just with a bit more attention to tap targets.

Great point. I had not considered the angle you raised in the second paragraph — it reframes the whole thing for me.

This is expected behavior, not a bug. The guard you are hitting is intentional — it protects against a class of mistakes that used to cause data loss.

If you need the other behavior, there is a documented filter you can hook to override it per site.

We ran into the same situation last quarter. What worked for us was starting small and only adding complexity when a real need showed up.
