<ul><li><strong>Status</strong> changed from <i>Assigned</i> to <i>Reporter Feedback</i></li></ul><p>I can't seem to recreate this. Simply adding a user to the list at the left does not immediately send the invite. If you close the tab and then reopen it later, the mistakenly invited user will appear under the 'You have already sent invitations...' section, but this is actually incorrect: the invitation exists, but has not been sent. This is in contrast to your situation, where the invitation was in fact already sent.</p>
<p>It seems to me that this is really a jumble of issues that is tued up with <a class="issue tracker-2 status-2 priority-4 priority-default" title="Feature: Allow members to rescind group invitations (Assigned)" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/3308">#3308</a> and <a class="issue tracker-2 status-13 priority-4 priority-default closed" title="Feature: Revise Invite Anyone Workflow (Deferred)" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/2978">#2978</a>. I'd kinda like to suggest that, instead of chasing down this bug, we work on improving the overall workflow and removing the possibility of this sort of bug.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #3307: Group Invites Sent before clicking "send invites"https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/3307?journal_id=158162014-07-12T02:45:01ZMatt Goldmattgold@gmail.com

<p>Actually, no -- and I wish I had explained this better in my ticket. I had an intuition from previous discussions that the invite had not actually been sent until the "send invites" button was clicked. But the issue is that if there is no way to rescind invites, and one wants to send additional invites after returning to the page, one has to send the mistakenly clicked invites.</p>
<p>Does that make sense? If not, I will try to explain again. The basic issue is that if one follows this -- "the invitation exists, but has not been sent. " -- there is no way to remove the invite, and it gets sent when you send other invites.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #3307: Group Invites Sent before clicking "send invites"https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/3307?journal_id=158172014-07-12T02:45:39ZMatt Goldmattgold@gmail.com

<ul></ul><p>Thanks for the clarification. This makes sense, but it suggests to me that this ticket is really a duplicate of <a class="issue tracker-2 status-2 priority-4 priority-default" title="Feature: Allow members to rescind group invitations (Assigned)" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/3308">#3308</a>.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #3307: Group Invites Sent before clicking "send invites"https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/3307?journal_id=158222014-07-14T15:09:21ZMatt Goldmattgold@gmail.com
<ul><li><strong>Status</strong> changed from <i>Reporter Feedback</i> to <i>Rejected</i></li></ul><p>Okay, yes, I guess that is true if the invites weren't actually sent until the second point in the process.</p>
