There are varying levels of control available to group admins in relation to the content posted by Members of the group. These settings are controlled in the Edit Group screen, accessible from the group's profile screen. There are three options for Post Permissions: Open, Members +, and Admin. Open setting allows any group member to tag the group in a post without the admin's approval. Members + allows any group member to tag the group in a post, but the tag does not become active until approved by an admin. Admin setting only allows admin's to tag the group in a post.
The app offers different ways to control the Members of your group, both during the Member admittance process and post-admitted Members. Member admittance settings are accessible in the Edit Group screen, which can be accessed from the group's profile screen. \r\nThere are three options for the Group Privacy settings: Public, Members +, and Private. The Public setting allows users to become a Member of the group or to Follow the group without any approval by the admin. Members + setting allows other users to Follow the group without any approval, but becoming a Member requires Admin approval. A group with Private setting requires admin approval to both Follow or become a Member of the group. \r\nThe group's details and content are viewable by any user when the Group Privacy settings are set to either Public or Members+. When the Group Privacy setting is set to Private, only approved Followers and approved Members may view the details and content of the group.
If you are an admin of a group, you can remove a member of that group by navigating to the group's profile screen and tapping the Members metric. Inside the Members screen, find the profile of the user you want to remove and tap the "Member" text next to the user's profile. Select Remove Member and confirm the change. The Member will be downgraded to a Follower.
Adding collaborators gives special attention to other profiles that may be your sponsors, closest friends, teammates, or any other profile for which you want to elevate attention. You can only add group followers (including Members and Admins) as a collaborator. When you add a user as a collaborator, that user will receive a notification for approval. During this time, only you as admin of the group will see the collaborator listed as Pending Approval in the Group Collaborators section of your profile. Once the other user approves the request, the collaborator will be visible to all other users who visit your group's profile. The collaborator is also automatically added as Follower of the group (unless the collaborator is already a Follower, Member, or Admin of the group).
If you are an admin of a group with multiple admins, you can remove other admins by navigating to a group's profile screen and tapping the "X users as admins" text. In the Admins screen, tap the "Admin" text next to the profile of the user you want to remove as Admin. You will be prompted to confirm the change. The Admin will be downgraded to Member status.
When changing a group's privacy settings from Public to Members+, or Members+ to Private, there is no impact on the existing Followers and Members of the group. Users who are not Followers, Members, or Admins will need to request approval or may not view any content if the group is set to Private.
When you are an admin of a group with Post Permissions set to Members+, you are asked to approve any posts tagged to the group by your group's Member before the tag becomes active. When a Member tags a new post to the group, you and any other Admin of the group will receive a notification in the Notifications -- You screen with the option to Approve or Decline the post. Once approved, the tag will become active and the post will be displayed in the group's posts.
If you have a group with the Chat feature On and change the settings to Off, the chat will appear disabled to all Members. Any prior conversations will not be deleted. You can re-enable the chat at a later date and continue the conversation from the prior point forward.
If you are an admin of a group, you can create posts on behalf of the group. Initiate a new post by tapping the Add Post (+) button on the lower navigation bar. On the following splash screen, select the profile drop-down menu at the top right of the screen. You can select the group profile of any group of which you are an Admin. Proceed to create the post following the prompts.
If you are an Admin of a group, you can create events on behalf of the group. Navigate to your group's main info screen. Tap the calendar+ icon at the top right of the screen and follow the prompts to create the event on behalf of the group.
Following a group is a great way to keep up on the activities and posts shared by the group or within the group without being a fully participating Member. As a Follower, you will see posts tagged to the group within your Following Feed. You will receive suggested events from that group in your My Events screen. However you are not able to tag your own posts to the group. You cannot add your vehicle to the group garage. You will not be able to filter those group member in your RoadSharing visibility settings. \r\nAs a Member, you are a full participant in the group. You may tag posts to the group (tags may require approval by the group admin), you will receive suggested events from that group in your My Events screen, and you will be able to filter your RoadSharing visibility settings to see other active group Members. You can also add your vehicle to the group's garage.
When you request becoming a Member of a group, you will be asked whether you want to add any of your vehicle's to the group's garage. If at a later point in time you want to add an additional vehicle to the group's garage, navigate to the group garage screen and tap the option menu to the right of the group's profile image. Select Add My Vehicle and you will be prompted with the list of vehicles from your garage (not including vehicles that you already added to the group).
If you added your vehicle to a group's garage and want to remove it, navigate to the group's garage screen and locate your vehicle. Tap the option menu below your vehicle's photos and select Remove Vehicle. Admins of a group have the ability to remove any vehicle from the group's garage using the same method. \r\nWhen you leave a group as a Member, or if an admin removes you as a group Member, your vehicles are automatically removed from the group's garage.
When you add a vehicle to any group garage, it is synchronized with the photos and details that you configure in your personal profile's garage. You cannot edit separate versions of the vehicle for each group garage. When you edit a vehicle in your personal profile's garage, those changes are automatically synced to any group garage that also contains your vehicle.
