Customize a group’s navigation

Use Menu Items to make a group’s navigation match its purpose. Existing groups keep their standard Posts, Chat, and Members destinations until an admin changes them.

Before you begin

Groups 2.0 is available to every customer on every plan.
You must be a network owner or community admin to configure a group.
Configuration happens in Control Center on web.
Members see the configured result on web, iOS, and Android.

Open the group editor

In Control Center, open Groups.
Select the group you want to configure.
Choose Edit Group.
Select Menu Items.

The same Edit Group view also contains Settings, including Allow Posting, and Admins for the group’s admin assignments.

Change an existing menu item

Find the menu item in the table.
Use the row controls to show or hide it, edit its name or destination, or change its position.
Review the order, name, target, and link shown in the table.
Confirm the updated order, name, target, and visibility in the table.

The updated item appears in the group navigation for members.

Add a custom menu item

From Menu Items, open New Group Menu Item.
Enter the Menu Item Name.
Choose a supported destination type.
Enter the Link.
Select Create.
Return to the menu-item table to confirm its placement and visibility.

What members will see

Members see the menu items that are visible for the group, in the order set by the admin. The configured navigation is used across web, iOS, and Android.

Group access remains unchanged

Groups 2.0 does not change the existing access model for open, gated, closed, private, or premium groups. Navigation and posting controls apply within the group’s existing access settings.

Important posting behavior

Renaming or reordering Posts does not change who can publish.
Hiding Posts prevents everyone—including group admins—from posting in that group.
To keep Posts visible but prevent members from creating posts, change Allow Posting in Settings.
