Editing an existing user group is a straightforward process. You can access your portal’s user groups from Control Panel → Users → User Groups, which lists user groups in a table. Managing membership is the most common action you’ll likely perform on a user group.
Figure 1: The user groups appear in a table.
Follow these steps to add/remove users to/from a user group:
-
Click the user group’s name or description. Alternatively, you can click the user group’s Actions button (
) and select Assign Members. This presents a list of the user group’s users.
-
To remove a user from the user group, click the
Xbutton next to that user. To remove multiple users at once, check each user’s checkbox and then click the trash icon () that appears in the Management Bar above the user list.
-
To add users to the user group, click the Add button (
). In the dialog that appears, select the users and click Add.

Other options are available in each user group’s Actions button
():
Edit: Modify the user group’s name or description, or choose Site templates to use for the user group’s Sites.
Permissions: Assign permissions for viewing and managing the user group.
User Group Pages Permissions: Assign permissions for managing the user group’s Site pages.
Manage Pages: Manually manage the user group’s Site pages. See the documentation on user group Sites for details.
Assign Members: Add/remove users to/from the user group. This is described in detail above.
Delete: Remove the user group. Note that you can’t delete a user group that contains users. You must first remove the users from the group.
If your user group has public and private Site pages, the options Go to Profile Pages and Go to Dashboard Pages also appear in your user group’s Actions menu. Clicking one of these links opens that Site in a new browser window. See the documentation on user group Sites for details.
