Administration menu → Groups → Default group settings
Bemerkung
Default group settings is only accessible by site administrators.
You decide the default settings with which each new group is created. Group administrators can change these settings. The settings here do not affect existing groups.
Certain settings are only available to staff, institution administrators, or site administrators. They are not visible to group administrators who cannot set these settings and are ignored for such groups.
Decide on the default settings for new groups¶
Open: Switch this option to ‚Yes‘ if you want to create an open membership group. This allows people to join the group without approval from group administrators.
Controlled: Create a controlled group if you wish to add people who cannot leave the group. This is a useful setting for course groups where you do not want members to leave.
Request: Set this option to ‚Yes‘ if you wish to create a request membership group. People will have to send a membership request that requires group administrator approval.
Bemerkung
Open and request membership groups are mutually exclusive.
Roles: Choose whether you have only members and administrators or also tutors. The latter can provide feedback and release pages when page submissions are allowed, but they cannot change group settings.
Friend invitations: Switch to ‚Yes‘ if you want to allow group members to invite friends to join the group. Regardless of this setting, group administrators can always send invitations to anyone. If the friends accept, they will be added automatically to the group.
Recommendations: Set this option to ‚Yes‘ if you want to allow group members to send their friends a recommendation for joining this group from a button on the group homepage. If a request membership group has been recommended and the friends are interested in it, they would still need the approval of the group administrator to join.
Bemerkung
Friend invitations and recommendations are mutually exclusive options.
Create and edit: Decide who shall be able to create and edit content in the group:
All group members
Everyone except ordinary members, i.e. group administrators and tutors depending on the group type
Group administrators only
Allow submissions: Use this option to allow group members to submit pages or collections for feedback or assessment. These pages and collections as well as a number of content items in them are locked until released by a group administrator or tutor.
Allow archiving of submissions: Use this option when you want to archive pages or collections that have been submitted to this group. The archive will be made on the server. Administrators can download the archived submissions and vital information about them.
Bemerkung
The archive is made at the point of the release of a portfolio.
Publicly viewable group: Set this option to ‚Yes‘ if everybody shall have access to content of this group. You only see this setting if the site administrator allowed you to have it. Anybody online can see the group homepage and the discussion forum(s). Depending on the membership visibility, they may also see group members. Only members of the group can see the group’s pages, unless they have been made public, and the files area.
Hide group: Switch this option to ‚Yes‘ if you do not want to list this group on the Groups page.
Hide membership: You can hide members of the group from non-members. Decide whether to hide:
nobody
all group members (except administrators)
group tutors only
Hide membership from members: Decide whether to hide the group members to people in the group. Only group administrators can see the members listed. Administrators are still shown on the group homepage. You can hide:
nobody
all group members (except administrators)
group tutors only
Bemerkung
If people have the My groups block on their profile page, their group memberships are still listed there. The hiding of the membership and / or group only refers to the Groups page.
Participation report: Switch this option to ‚Yes‘ if group administrators shall view a report displaying all group portfolios and those that have been shared with the group and see who commented on them.
Start date: Select a date that should serve as start date for all editing activities in groups created once this configuration page has been saved.- End date: Select a date that should serve as end date for all editing activities in groups created once this configuration page has been saved.
Bemerkung
You may only want to add dates into the ‚Start date‘ and ‚End date‘ options when you create groups in bulk and then clear the fields again so that other groups, created days or weeks later do not have the editability restrictions that might be outdated by then.
Group category: Choose a category if you want to associate the groups with one, allowing you to filter groups on the Groups page. This setting is only available if the site administrator turned it on.
Auto-add people: When you switch this setting to ‚Yes‘, new account holders to the site are added to groups automatically.
Bemerkung
Be careful with this setting because it means that everybody joins all the groups created when a site administrator sets up a group.
Shared page notifications: Select from the drop-down menu who shall be notified when new group portfolios are created and when group members share their portfolios with the group. The options in the drop-down menu are:
All group members
Everyone except ordinary members, i.e. group administrators and tutors depending on the group type
Group administrators only
Comment notifications: Select from the drop-down menu who shall be notified when feedback is placed on a page or artefacts.
All group members
Everyone except ordinary members, i.e. group administrators and tutors depending on the group type
Group administrators only
Send forum posts immediately: If allowed, any group member can send a forum post immediately, without needing to wait for the forum post delay time. If not allowed, then only group administrators, tutors, and moderators can do so.
Reset: Switch to ‚Yes‘ if you wish to reset all changes you made to the default settings.
Click the Submit button to save the changes.
