Can't add multiple users to a group

Strange. Few years ago i was able to add multiple users to a shared group. I dont remember exactly, but divider was a “;” i think. Now it doesnt work neither way. Was that changed or broken?

Openfire 3.4.5

Hi,

there is no way to do this using the admin console. (I checked the source)

But you could use the Helga plugin. Using a simple chat command you can add as much user as you want:

group add -g TestGroup -U user1 user2 user3

Thanks for your suggestion. Though i prefer to do this via Admin Console, especially when i have to add just 2 or 3 users at once. This was possible with older versions, so i think this could be added back again.

you can add multiple jids by ad-hoc

one jid per line

Yes, that’s another solution, similar to using bots. But i want a simple GUI solution in standard Admin Console.
