GroupPage module


About

Once enabled, this module allows you to create a dedicated 'group page' where users from a group are displayed in a tidy grid layout, while promoted users take the spotlight in a carousel. Each page can display up to 500 users. The groups are created and managed in the 'Manage Groups' section of the Configuration Management console.  It's the perfect tool to organize and highlight the standout members of your community or enterprise.

Exclusively for MediaSpace Video Portal. Requires the Theming and PersonalProfile modules to be enabled.

Group page with 2 promoted users at the top
