I would like to customize the groups page, at least to add a paragraph of text above the group list.  
As far as I understand, ultimately I’d have to create a theme component.  
But is it possible to do something without resorting to this?

I found [Custom HTML on Groups page](https://meta.discourse.org/t/custom-html-on-groups-page/140787) but the paths it refers must be obsolete:

- Customize \> `</head>`
- After Header section

Then I thought of using the [Versatile Banner](https://meta.discourse.org/t/versatile-banner/109133) component but it’s already in use in the other pages of my forum. Is it possible to use another instance of the same plugin with a different config so that it displays only on /g and with another content? If so, how?
