Hey Martin,

Ah, this is actually a new feature that we have added in the latest release and the reason that you are seeing it in English is most likely because it hasn't been translated yet.

If you want to turn this off, you can edit the custom fields of the group category as you can see here, http://take.ms/G8els

If you want to translate it, you can edit the language file /language/de-DE/de-DE.com_easysocial.ini and locate for the codes below,

[gist]
PLG_FIELDS_GROUP_TYPE_SEMI_PUBLIC="Open Group (Require Moderation To Join)"
PLG_FIELDS_GROUP_TYPE_SEMI_PUBLIC_DESC="Anyone can join the group but the user will require the approval from the group admin before they can join the group. These groups will appear in search results."

Hi Mark
Thank you very much. This new feature I have overlooked.
Best wishes
Martin

You are most welcome Martin
