The conditions of adding people to a group are as follows:

• You must have already registered to use Active Chat (need to register?).
• You must be the administrator of a group to add users.

Note: In this example the groupname is called "myfriends" and the nickname of the user is "alex".

To add a member to your group who does not belong to any other groups you use the following format:

• Start a text message
  
  
• type <groupname> <addmember> <phonenumber> <nickname>
  
  
• send the text message to the following number: 07970700800

For our example to add a member to the group who does not belong to any other groups we do the following: (see fig 1.)

• Start a text message
  
  
• type myfriends addmember 07970123456 alex
  
  
• send the text message to the following number: 07970700800

To add a member to your group who is a member of other groups you use the following format:

• Start a text message
  
  
• type <groupname> <addmember> <nickname>
  
  
• send the text message to the following number: 07970700800

For our example to add a member to the group who is also a member of other groups we do the following: (see fig 2.)

• Start a text message
  
  
• type myfriends addmember alex
  
  
• send the text message to the following number: 07970700800

If someone you are trying to add to your group is a member of other groups then we must already know their mobile phone number, hence in the second scenario the number wasn't required.

TIP: Add the active chat number to your phonebook.
