Settings

You can access to your group settings by:

  1. clicking My groups button on top bar menu
  2. clicking the one you want to invite people on the list

In this section you can edit informations added at the group creation (see above), like group name, description, avatar and banner. You also can:

  • change Group visibility:
    • Visible everywhere on the web: the group will be publicly listed in search results and may be suggested in the explore section. Only public informations will be shown on its page.
    • Only accessible through link: you'll need to transmit the group URL so people may access the group's profile. The group won't be findable in Mobilizon's search or regular search engines.
  • allow to join (or not) a group:
    • Anyone can join freely: anyone wanting to be a member from your group will be able to from your group page
    • Manually invite new members: the only way for your group to get new members is if an admininistrator invites them
  • add Group address
