These files are not Jinja2 templates, so there's no reason that they needed to be inside `templates/zerver`. Moving them to the top level reflects their importance and also makes it feel nicer to work on editing the help center content, without it being unnecessary buried deep in the codebase.

# User groups
|
|
|
|
User groups allow you to [mention](/help/mention-a-user-or-group) multiple
|
|
users at once. When you mention a user group, everyone in the group is
|
|
[notified](/help/pm-mention-alert-notifications) as if they were
|
|
individually mentioned.
|
|
|
|
Note that user groups are not the same as group private messages. If you're
|
|
trying to send a message to a group of people, you'll want to either
|
|
[create a stream](/help/create-a-stream), or send a
|
|
[group private message](/help/private-messages).
|
|
|
|
### Create a user group
|
|
|
|
{!how-to-create-a-user-group.md!}
|
|
|
|
### Modify a user group
|
|
|
|
{start_tabs}
|
|
|
|
{settings_tab|user-groups-admin}
|
|
|
|
1. Find the group.
|
|
|
|
1. Click on the group name or description to edit.
|
|
|
|
1. Add or remove users (including yourself). Click outside the box
|
|
to save. Zulip will notify everyone who is added or removed.
|
|
|
|
!!! warn ""
|
|
**Note**: If you remove yourself from a user group, you
|
|
may no longer have permission to modify the user group.
|
|
|
|
{end_tabs}
|
|
|
|
### Delete a user group
|
|
|
|
{start_tabs}
|
|
|
|
{settings_tab|user-groups-admin}
|
|
|
|
1. Find the group.
|
|
|
|
1. Click the **trash** (<i class="fa fa-trash-o"></i>) icon in the top
|
|
right corner of the user group.
|
|
|
|
1. Approve by clicking **Confirm**.
|
|
|
|
!!! warn ""
|
|
**Note**: Deleting a user group cannot be undone by anyone.
|
|
|
|
{end_tabs}
|
|
|
|
### Configure who can create and manage user groups
|
|
|
|
{!admin-only.md!}
|
|
|
|
By default, [all members](/help/roles-and-permissions) in a Zulip
|
|
organization can create user groups and manage user groups that they
|
|
are a member of. However, you can restrict that ability to specific
|
|
[roles](/help/roles-and-permissions).
|
|
|
|
Note that administrators and moderators can modify any user group,
|
|
while other organization members can only modify user groups to which
|
|
they belong. Guests cannot modify or create user groups.
|
|
|
|
{start_tabs}
|
|
|
|
{settings_tab|organization-permissions}
|
|
|
|
1. Under **Other permissions**, configure **Who can create and manage user groups**.
|
|
|
|

{end_tabs}
