Allow moderators to create groups

Awesome update!

For an intranet, it would be amazing to streamline this so ANY user could create a Category and a group, and while doing so, be prompted to add people to the group who need access. Make it non-tech and a streamlined, very few click process.

I don’t know whether it’s an issue or intended, but moderators can’t add or demote group owners. They can add group owners when they create the group, but then, once the group is created, it’s not possible anymore. It would seem logical to me, that if they can manage the group, they should also be able to decide who is managing the group (and they are able to add owners when creating the group, why not after).
We would like to avoid requesting the admins to do this.

Is there a way to make that possible?

As it’s said in the first post they should be able to do it, I suppose it’s an issue.

I believe this is an oversight, as moderators are able to assign group owners if they create a group, but not after. @jamie.wilson, thoughts?

A moderator should now be able to manage group members.

With the new site setting, moderators can create and manage groups, but, if I am not mistaken, cannot delete groups. Is it by intent or an oversight? Would it be possible to give moderators the permission to delete groups?

抱歉,我不确定在这里创建新主题还是回复旧主题的礼仪。如果我做错了,请拆分此帖。 :slight_smile:

虽然我同意这一点,但我们希望在我们的论坛上做相反的事情——允许管理组但不能管理分类。我认为这不那么奇怪。
所以我想要求这两个功能可以单独切换,因为我真的不觉得它们是“相同级别的权限”。我明白我们是一个小众案例……

可以继续讨论这个话题。

您能更详细地解释一下为什么您希望他们创建一个组而不是一个类别,鉴于组的目的是为类别定义权限?

您将组用于什么?

这里的具体用例是用于一个主要用于 @ 群组成员的群组,并且成员更改相当频繁(“新成员”),因此管理员能够轮换成员会很有用。

但我们的用例和组织结构比较特殊,所以如果它不适用于更广泛的用途,我将不胜感激 :stuck_out_tongue:
