[Building Sakai] can one join a site by visiting the site instead of using the membership tool

[Adam Marshall]

John (L) would you have the SAK number of the patch? I tried searching for
auto join but that didn't do the trick. I also had an idea that the Jira had
the words 'direct to join' in it but that wasn't a help either!

Yes John, you did. We use it here at UM - something Cambridge did and Dave
Haines added it to our build.
We give out a URL like   <server>/join/portal/site/<siteid>
and going to the site with that URL adds the person to the site (they may
have to login first in the process of getting there).

I'm pretty sure we did something for this use case. You might try  
searching for "autojoin". I think it created a special url that would  
add a logged-in user to the site and then put them into the site.

We keep getting the same confusion regarding Joinable sites.
 
The scenario is this: a joinable site is created then the URL is  
publicised,
people go to the site but of course since they're not members, they  
are
denied access.
 
Is there a patch which we can apply which will display a "Join Me"  
link or
button when one visits a joinable site without being a member?
 
I'm sure I saw something mentioned about this a few years ago but  
could find
it by searching Jira.
