Moderators and Administrators
Moderators: When a group member is promoted to be a moderator of the group, it means that the member receives the following additional abilities:
- Edit group details, including the group name and group description
- Edit, close, and delete any forum topic or post in the group
Administrators: Administrators have total control over the contents and settings of a group. That includes all the abilities of moderators, as well as the ability to:
- Change group-wide settings. For instance, administrators can turn group forums on or off, change group status from public to private, and toggle on or off various other group functionality provided by plugins
- Change the group avatar
- Manage group members. More specifically, only group administrators have the power to promote members to moderators, or to ban individual users from the group
- Delete the group
