Add a New Group

1. From the Admin Console, choose Edit Site > Groups.
2. At the bottom of the group list, click the "Add a New Group" button.
3. Complete the fields as necessary:


• Group Name: This will appear in all menus, headers, and calendars where this group has a presence.
• Group Description: This will not appear on the Website, but allows you to enter a group description for internal use.
• Hide group from public? The default is "No". If you choose "Yes", then the group will not appear on lists of groups within your site. Also, your master calendar will not allow users to filter events for this group. This choice can be useful for a sub-group or a more private group that does not want to solicit public traffic on the Website.
• Icon path: (not applicable for all designs) Some sites use icons to represent groups in different location. If this is the case on your Website, you can specify the icon for your group here. The file type requirements will vary based on your site's design.

Older designs may also have some additional options under the group settings. For Websites created after 2009, these settings are located under edit site > skinning:


• CSS styles: To add custom styles for your group, paste CSS code in this box. You may define your own classes, or create override declarations for the classes already set up by your designer. This is an advanced feature and is not directly supported (i.e. use at your own risk!).
• Specify Design for Main Nav Bar: The default is "No". If you choose "Yes" (only available on certain SiteOrganic Plans and certain SiteOrganic sites), then you will be presented with a number of options to customize (or "skin") the look of your header/navigation bar. Consult your designer for more details, since this feature is highly dependent on the design of your site.


4. Click the "Save Changes" button to save your changes and return to the Group List. Your new group will now appear in the list.
