Bug Description
In Mahara 1.4, you have the option to invite users to join an institution. It would be good if the ability to just add users straight to an institution was added, therefore bypassing the invite user, then waiting for them to accept process. Also showing more than the first 100 results in the institution members search box would be useful.

Hi Mathew,
If you are a site admin, you can add users to an institution circumventing the invitation process, cf. http:// manual. mahara. org/en/ latest/ site_admin/ institutions. html#members Alternatively, if you only want to add one person to an institution, you can do so on the accounts page, cf. http:// manual. mahara. org/en/ latest/ site_admin/ users.html# user-account- settings
In general, I think it is by design that institution admins cannot add users in bulk as they should be able to control which institution they want to join. However, in Mahara 1.5, where we have implemented a few features for Mahara sites that run multiple institutions and thus use Mahara in an educational setting, e.g. many schools using it, there is a feature where you as admin can add users without inviting them first, cf. http:// manual. mahara. org/en/ moving_ accounts/ site_administra tion/institutio n_members. html#people- who-have- left-a- given-instituti on
