I want to add another layer of classification to different groups.Is there any plugin or component available to support this?

[image] Custom Fields for Groups? Development Is it possible to create custom fields for Groups, just like we can add (and retrieve) custom fields for Users? I have seen mention of this as a request here and there (like here). If it’s not built into Discourse right now (it seems to me it’s not), is there a way to mimic this behavior?

In the short-term, a quick and dirty™ way that I’ve been doing it is to stick to a naming convention for the group names. e.g. slpt_ for company user groups, partner_ for user groups with partners, etc. It won’t give you the clean visual you might want with displaying this somewhere, for that you’ll have to go with @merefield’s suggestion for a plugin. But depending on your use case, this might give you a quick win.

How can I categorize groups?
