Content Groups - Creating and Types

This article explains how to create a Content Group. Content Groups are created by Administrators but may be managed by Group Managers, which means they can create content and share it across the community.

 

Key Steps:

01. Log into your BizBag or SportsBag Admin Console 

02. Click on > Content Groups on the left-hand side panel of the Admin Console.

03. Select Add New Group on the top right-hand corner of the screen.

04. Add the Group name and select Group Type.

05. Group Type - The Group Type allows the Admin user to select the level of user accessibility of each individual Content Group.

• Open Group - These groups are open to all users and the users can subscribe themselves.
• Restricted Group ( Password Requested ) - These groups are password protected. Users require a password to subscribe to these Content Groups. Only users with whom the Admin has shared the password can subscribe to these Content Groups.
• Restricted Group ( Request Access ) - Users can subscribe to these groups. But access to the Content Groups will only be received once the Content Group Admin accepts the request.
• Closed Groups - These groups are not visible to the users. Only Admin users and group managers can add users to these groups.

06. Click on Save on the top right corner.

07. After clicking Save, the new Content Group will be shown in the list with the other Content Groups. The Group Name will be shown as the Title.

PRO TIP: Create an Archive Content Group, and move content here from the previous year to re-use again for an upcoming term, rather than having to create the same content every year.
