Setup and Configuration 

Now that you have the widget placed on the page you will need to navigate to the configuration of the widget. To do so navigate to the widget you want (edit the page) and click on the cog in the corner of the widget. 

Widget Title 

Choose a title for your widget and type it in under the widget title. This is fully customizable and you can call the widget whatever you would like. Pictured below is the widget with the widget title displaying and how to get it to display. 

How to Display Widget Title 

• Click on the pencil icon in the top left of the screen → click Manage site theme → click edit this page 

• Navigate to the configuration panel of the widget and click on the format icon → click top border and header 

Show

• There are four options for types of groups to be displayed within the widget. 

  • Current Contextual Group’s Subgroups - Will display the current contextual group’s subgroups 

  • Current Contextual User’s Groups - Will display the current contextual user’s groups

  • Accessing User’s Groups - Will display the accessing user’s groups 

  • Parent group - Is customizable and will display a list of parent groups specified by the user 

• NOTE: We recommend in order to display a list of all of the public groups to use Current Contextual grop’s subgroups. This will pull from the whole site’s groups and subgroups.  

View Type

There are two view types to choose from: list and thumbnail. Pictured below are those two view types. 

Sort by

There are three different options that can be used to sort the list: Alphabetical, Last Updated Date, and custom order.

Sort Order

Lists of groups can further be sorted by the sort order which includes ascending and descending. For example, if alphabetical was chosen for the sort by and ascending was chosen for the sort order it would be sorted from a→ z. 

Number of Items to Display 

Choose how any groups do display within the widget. For list view the recommended amount is 10 whereas for thumbnail its suggested to have 9 as it fills in and aligns in the widget. 

Enable Paging 

If you choose to only show 5 groups (items) then there will be arrows to page over to the next set of groups (items). An example is pictured below:
