Wow, living on the bleeding edge of Discourse hosting is full of surprises, was seriously confused for a minute there. 
Anyway, just wanted to say kudos to @tgxworld. Iāve happened to set up quite a lot of groups in the past week and the new UI is great. 
(and I am saying that even though I had not idea group page even existed a month ago)
@tgxworld I noticed that creating a group without a name on the new page throws a 500 error rather than telling you the name is missing.
Itās still weird that the API returns a 500 error for invalid input rather than a standard error response. We need to fix the server side aspect of this too to return the appropriate error.
Just sayingā¦
Iāve been managing my instance of Discourse for over a year, but had never used groups. My first instinct was to go to Admin>Users> because logic dictates thatās where I would find the Groups tab. But noā¦ Confusion and Google searches ensued.
Hi,
It might be a good idea to make more obvious where to find ā+ Add Membersā in a group. It seems hidden away. I know that it is similar to the ā+ New Categoryā but I still missed it.
The burger menu where ā+Add Membersā is is very easy to miss as it looks part of the search menu for the group Members. The visual focus is on the menu on the left (Members/ Activity/ Message/ Manage ) and didnāt pay much attention to the search box on the right as I was not looking for a specific user.
Then I thought Iād find āAdd Memberā in āManage/ Membershipā.
If I donāt find something in the Admin menu I know to find it in the respective area. ie, If I want a new Category Iāll go to /Categories and now if I want to modify Groups, Iāll go to /groups. I donāt find it very intuitive but I know where things are now.
