FAQ
Is it possible to give Group Leaders more capabilities?
Yes. You can extend the capabilities and permissions of the Group Leader user role by using a plugin like User Role Editor.
Why aren』t emails sent to the group being delivered?
By default, emails sent using the Group Email feature are sent by your web host. While sending email is possible in this manner, it might not be ideal for your situation. See these instructions for other email delivering options.
Can Group Administration be on the front-end of my website instead of in the WordPress admin area?
No. This is not currently an option.
