Groups

Groups are a way for you to arbitrarily organise lists of people that are then represented on your web site. The groups you create bear no relevance to any structure within the central Oracle database and are fully up to you, and the other editors of your site, to maintain.

When selecting the ‘Manage groups’ sub-menu option, you will be presented with a form to add a new group and a list of any groups you or others may have already created. To add a new group, type in the name of the group you want, such as ‘Research Students’ or ‘Academic Faculty’ and click on the ‘add this group’ button.

You can order the groups by dragging on the drag handle and placing the groups in whatever order you wish. The order you choose will be the same order as displayed on the website.

Should you need to edit one or more of the group names, select the groups you want to change by clicking on the checkbox and select the ‘edit group’ from the ‘with selected’ drop-down list and click on the ‘Go’ button. You’ll then be presented with a form with the current names of the groups. Change hem as required and submit the form.

To delete one or more groups, check the ones you want and then select the ‘delete’ option from the ‘with selected’ drop-down list and click on the ‘Go’ button. When you delete a group it will not delete any people! It simply removes the group and associations to it; the people still appear in the automatic A-Z list.
