What Do People Think Of This New Questions Set Up

How can I require a user to answer a question before joining my Facebook group?

Hi! Thanks for A2A!This feature has not been rolled out in all Groups yet, but we did recently get it.Setting it up must be done via browser - it won’t work in the App. So open your Facebook Group in a browser, and choose Manage Group, then Edit Group Settings. It looks like this.Once you get to the Edit Group Page, you can then set up the questions. Not all Groups have it yet, but I think they are getting there. I do agree with you, it's a great way to weed out the trolls. Although I have noticed, that when another member adds a friend, the questions don't seem to be getting asked. However, lately, I'm noticing that the Approve Members page, shows a lot more details, and I can check the other Groups they are in, directly from there. If they are in a lot of other similar Groups, and look kosher, I'll add them, without the questions being answered.Anyway, if it HAS been rolled out in your Group, it looks like this:So those are the questions I chose for our Group, because we do nails. I can change the questions if I want.And if you access your Group on a phone app, you can't see whether or not they've answered the questions, and what their answers are. I've got to do that on a browser, on my iPad. You also get the option to remind them. So I think it's pretty good, it needs a little tweaking, to make it work for the App too.Incidentally, did you apply to go to the Facebook Communities Summit in Chicago in June? I'm excited that I got invited. Actually still in shock that my nail Group was one of the 100 Groups they selected, of the millions who applied. Though I don't think every Group knew about it though.Anyway, good luck setting up your questions, hope you have the feature, it's very useful!
