Help: Manage Group Owners and Members

Subsections

UP | Help Index

Group owners can control who is a member of their group as well as who co-owns the group.

"Manage owners and members" is a handy tool on the group settings page that greatly simplifies the task of managing a group's membership.

How to access the feature:

note:

only available to group owners.

  • Go to the home page of the group you want to manage
  • Click the "settings" tab
  • Click the "Manage owners and members" link at the top of the settings page

What to do:

In the list of names appearing on the manage owners and members page, you can perform the following actions:

Resign as owner:
 This removes you as an owner of the group. You can only do this when there is more than one group owner. We can't have a bunch of owner-less groups running around here, can we?
Remove as owner:
 Removes the member from the list of group owners.
Make owner:Promotes a group member to being a group owner (and gives them the same abilities and responsibilities you have as owner)
Remove:Removes the membe from your group roster (but does not revoke their overall omidyar.net membership status).

Note: this feature is only available to group owners. If you are a member of, but not an owner of, a group, you won't even be able to get to the "settings" page (the link will be greyed out on the group home page nav bar).
