Site overview - groups, posts, comments
February 27, 2015 8:26 AM - BoerumHillScott
The three levels of content on the site are groups, posts, and comments, replacing the previous mix of articles (with comments), forum topics, forum posts (with comments), and pages.

A group is primary a container for posts.

There are two types of groups: public, which can be seen by everyone, and private groups, which can only be seen by members.

Public groups are farther divided into two types: ones people who are not logged in can see all content, and limited public groups where people who are not logged in can only see posts, and nto comments or images.

Private groups are farther divided into two types: ones where anyone logged in user can join, and ones where only invited users can join.


Inside groups, posts can be created. For public groups, only users with "Author" level of access can create post. Inside private groups, any member can create a post.

If a post has not had any comments made to it yet, it can be deleted by the creator, users with "Editor" access in public groups, and by group owners and moderators in private groups. Once a comment has been made to a post, it can only be deleted by an administrator.

A post supports a wide range of HTML formatting, and can have multiple images.

Site administrators or owners of private groups can "lock" a post, preventing additional comments or edits.


Comments can be made to any post that is not locked.
