  2. Log in if necessary
  3. Click on the 'Workbench' tab or directly visit the Workbench http://genboree.org/java-bin/workbench.jsp
  4. Drag the Host to the Output Targets window
    • For most users this will be 'genboree.org'
  5. Click 'System/Network' -> 'Groups' -> 'Create Group'
  6. Enter a Group Name
  7. Optionally enter a Description

This tool will create/add a new group in Genboree. Note that the group to be created should NOT already exist at the target host (i.e. a Genboree installation at a particular site). The Groups menu also has tools for managing your group, including editing Group information, Deleting a Group, adding new users, and updating roles of Group members (i.e. subscriber, author, administrator). You can also send messages to everyone in your Group through Genboree.

Go to the Genboree Workbench

Drag the Genboree Host (i.e. 'genboree.org') to Output Targets

Select System/Network -> Groups -> Create Group

Enter Genboree Group name and optional description

Select OK after you have created your Genboree Group

Click Refresh to see your newly created Genboree Group

See details of your Genboree Group in Details window
