It would be interesting to be able to create conversation groups with guest users, and be able to remove the Access Link option without removing them from the conversation group

Often we want to create a public conversation group, leave the Link valid until a certain period and after that deactivate the Link, whoever entered the conversation within this period remains, whoever did not enter will no longer enter

Describe the solution you'd like
Allow Guest users to remain in the conversation by disabling the "Allow guests to join via link" option

Research direction

Start by tracing the implementation of the “Allow guests to join via link” option and how guest membership is handled in conversation groups. Define the UI and server-side entry points involved, then verify that disabling the link blocks new guests while retaining guests who already joined.
