XF 1.2 Allow user to add self to forum

[billybatz9]

Is there a way that i can allow a user to join a private forum (on their own) if they want to by joining a group or something?

I don't want to have to manually add them and I don't want to interfere with my upgrade account that I have setup for them already.

Create a custom field, create a user group promotion to add them to the group.

Is there any documentation on how to do this? I am not really sure how to do that

How do i link the custom user field with the user group promotion?

It is a criteria available when creating the promotion.
