New Feature: Group Moderators

We have just added a new feature to RealTown Groups. Group Organizers can now promote any Group Member to Group Moderator status.

What is a Group Moderator?

Group Moderators are trusted members of the group that have been granted additional group privileges. These privileges include the ability edit and delete any post made to the group. Normally, group members may only edit/delete their own posts.

Group Moderators, however, are not allowed to promote other group members. Nor are they allowed to modify or cancel the subscriptions of any other member.

How do I promote [name] to Group Moderator?

Only the Group Organizer (the person that created the group) can promote a Group Member to Group Moderator. If you are a Group Organizer, click to view all members of your group from the Manage Groups page. Under each Group Member's name there will be some additional buttons, including "Promote to Group Moderator".

If you wish to demote a Group Moderator back down to a regular Group Member (therefore removing their permission to edit/delete any post), you can do so from the same View Members page.

If you have any suggestions for enhancing this feature or have any questions, please post below.
