How to add "join group" button on facebook?

In my website, I would like to add "join group" button for my facebook group. I know this is possible to do with "Like", but can't find a way to add a button for joining a facebook group.

Is it possible? Am I missing anything?

Thanks

1. Open the group page and choose Embed Invite.

Facebook Group Join Widget

A window appears with the code to add to your message.

2. Copy the Code to your website.

I would like to add that every facebook group has a unique url you can link to. (facebook.com/groups/123456789etc/)

What I have seen several times is that websites have a button "join group" that links to that url. The user still has to join or request to join from there.

I know this isn't a code related answer, but there wasn't a marketing related stackexchange site the last time I checked.

Facebook doesn't offer that.

You can set buttons to like/follow a page but not a group. A Walk-around is to create a page and direct via details and posts to join the group. I've seen it done for 100K+ user groups.

Get technical info for these directly from facebook: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/follow-button
