How to set up & manage groups                                              

Creating a group is a great way to organize your server, especially if you have separate teams, play more than one game, or keep things better organized. 

Each group has its own categories and channels. 

How to create a group

  •  Click the + in the leftmost column or from Settings > Groups.

Note: if you do not toggle on Restrict, who can view this group, all members of your server will be able to follow the group, meaning they will have visibility of the channels and interact with them.

  • Add a description for your group, then click Create.

Reordering groups

Archiving a group.

You have the option to archive a group should you wish to restore it at a later date or keep it for prosperity! 

You can do this by either right-clicking on the group tile and selecting archive or from the groups tab from your server settings.

To restore an archived group, head over to server settings > groups, click on the Archived tab, click the menu, then Restore.
