Manage Groups

iSpring Online users who are assigned to the Publishers or Administrators groups, may add and remove users, modify information about users, and may assign them to groups (see User roles and permissions ). They can also create new groups and remove them.

Note: Administrators can add any types of users, while Publishers can add only Private Users.

To manage user groups, click the Groups tab in the title menu.

Groups are listed in a table with three columns:

  • Title: group name
  • Description: group description
  • Users count: the number of users assigned to a given group

Navigation

There is a navigation bar under the group list to browse it by pages (refer to Navigation for details).

Note: if the list of groups fits one page, the navigation bar remains hidden.

Sorting

The list of groups can be sorted by any of the three columns: Title, Description, or Users count (refer to Sorting for details)

Search and Filter

There is a text field above the list of groups to filter them by name.

To find a certain group, type the first letters of its name in the text field with a magnifying glass icon (refer to Search and Filter for details).

Edit group

To edit information about a certain group, click its title or Edit Group Edit Group link directly under the group title (refer to Edit Group for details).
