Assigning users to groups

The groups feature allows you to extend the capabilities of the pre-defined user roles. Groups can be used as social groups or profile types to control access to various parts of your site or to segment users for ease of communication.

To assign users to groups, there are two options:

  1. Update the user profile per member, or
  2. Add multiple members at one time.

  2. Click on "Administer Site" in the menu.
  3. In the left menu, click "Users & Groups", then "Users".
  4. Next, click on an existing user to modify their permissions, then click the "Groups" tab.
  5. You should see a screen similar to below where all your existing groups appear. Click the appropriate ones for the user and Save.
