**Inviting People **
By going to "Manage Wiki" then "Invite People," you will be brought to a form that allows you to invite people to your wiki. You can invite people by their Wikispaces username or their e-mail address. 

Users Requesting Access
Users can request membership to your public or protected wiki by going to your wiki, clicking on "Join Wiki". They will see an option to request membership on that page.

If your wiki is private, non-members can request membership to your wiki when they visit your wiki. You will have the opportunity to accept or reject their membership request. As an organizer, you will receive e-mail notifications of these requests as well as notification banners when you visit your wiki.

New members will be sent a confirmation of email address. Once the new member Confirms using the link provided, you as the organiser of the wiki need confirms the new member in your email account or through the wiki space.

The following image is what the new member receives to their email account.



Handling Pending Requests and Invitations
When you log in as an organizer of your wiki, you will see a banner at the top of the page informing you of any new membership requests. If you go to "Manage Wiki" and "Members," you can also see pending memberships under "Pending Membership Requests." You will be able to approve any requests and see or withdraw any invitations that you have sent out that other users still need to accept. If you have invited people who do not yet have user accounts on Wikispaces, those invitations will not be listed here.
