 * Why does the all groups page show a join button for closed groups? Surely it 
   shouldn’t?

 * Hello [@rosbiffer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rosbiffer/),
 * An Open Type Group can be directly joined by clicking Join button on the Group
   page, while Closed groups Join button send the membership request to administrator
   or Group Managers for approval.
 * Let us know if you have any other questions.

 * For some reason my site simply allows you to register and then you become a member
   with no approval. I will use CSS to hide the join button.
