Restrict this one
Section titled “Restrict this one”Most communities do not want every member creating groups. A restriction here is usually right, and it is clearer than letting someone fill in a form that is then refused by your site’s own rules.
If your site already limits group creation by role, set the same restriction on this tab so the two agree.
What your members see
Section titled “What your members see”A form for the group’s name, description, avatar and privacy. On submitting, the group is created and they land in it.
Whether they can choose a privacy level, and which levels exist, comes from your Ultimate Member Groups configuration.
