How do I add a group?

Updated over 3 weeks ago

Go to Groups page and click the Add Group button.


This open up a modal page to add a group.



STEP 1: Create

Audience

First, select the Audience for your group. You can set whether your group is available for your community school-wide or intended for parents or teachers within certain grades or a specific grade or a classroom.

Group Admins

Next, add additional Group Admins to be notified on group activity. A group admin can be a School Admin, Teacher, or a Parent Admin (who've been granted rights to manage groups by the school admin).

Title & Description

Add Title for your group and a Description. This is the information that convinces users to join your group.

How do Members Join

Select the sign-up rule for your group:

  • Public groups are available for all users that belong to the set audience. Any user within that audience can click to join the group.

  • Private groups require an application. To join a private group, the user needs to click Apply. This Apply action may request the user to fill out a quick application form limited to three questions. The group admin will either approve or reject the application.

Banner Images

Upload Banner Photos (one or more) to create an engaging Group page.

Save the Group

Click Save and preview your page. Note that your group remains in Draft mode until you are read to publish your group.


STEP 2: Review, Add Content, Add Members and Publish

You are now taken to the Draft view of your new group. While the group is still in draft mode, you can:

Once ready, click the green Publish button, and announce the Group in the School Feed.
