How do I change my group's discussion settings?
Group leaders can decide who can start discussions, who can add polls, and whether members can add pictures.
- Go to your group.
- Open the "Admin" tab and choose "Settings".
- Find the "Discussions" section.
Changes are saved as soon as you select an option.
Who can start a discussion?
Choose "All group members" or "Only group leaders". If you choose "Only group leaders", members can still comment on discussions.
Who can add a poll to discussions?
Choose "All group members" or "Only group leaders". By default, all group members can add polls. Read more in How do polls work?
Pictures in Discussions
Check "Allow group members to add pictures to discussions" to let members add pictures to their discussions. Pictures are off by default, and while they're off nobody can add pictures to discussions in the group, including group leaders.
If you allow pictures, you can also have discussions with pictures reviewed before they appear. Check "Group discussion contains a picture" in the "Pre-Moderation" section on the same page. Read more in How do the different group pre-moderation settings work?
