Hi
Is it possible to have multiple applications attached to one group? For example, if I wanted to have all my forums under the same group? Or is it one type of application per group?
Thanks
Oli

There is no limitation on the number of or types of applications that can be contained in any one group. You are free to arrange the applications into your groups in the way that makes the most sense for your particular usage.
Michael Kelley - I am setting up multiple forums for one group. Is there a way to have each forum's name appear in the Group - Banner (top navigation menu)?
Thank you,
Melanie
Yes, you can update the Group - Banner widget configuration to put these in that listing specifically. Otherwise, they roll up into a generic "Forums" link which directs the user to the group-url/f so they can select a specific forum.
If you want to do this on your environment follow these steps:
1) Go to the group in question.
2) Click the pencil in the upper left.
3) Click on Manage Group Theme
4) Click on Edit this Page
5) Click Edit Header
6) Click on the Configure button (Cog/Gear) for the Group - Banner widget.
7) Click Add on the Navigation Items list
It should look something like this:
8) Select Single Forum as the Link Type, Search for the forum's name and give it an appropriate label.
9) Drag the name in the list hierarchy where you want it to appear
9) Save your changes (save x2) and then publish those changes via the sidebar.
Perfect, that is exactly what I needed to know - thanks for your help!
