Hi,

I'm upgrading my site to 4.7 and am using Organic Groups but can't find where (in the upgraded version) to change the group "welcome message".

In 4.6 it was under the group page's "edit" tab.

Also, I've heard that much has changed with OG between 4.6 and 4.7 but neither the readme nor the documentation page reflect any changes. Have I been staying up too late or are the changes documented somewhere?

Thanks,
Kevin

From readme.txt: - Activate the og AND og_basic modules as usual.

Problem is, og_basic is new in 4.7. Enabling it is required but a new step.

You'll have to navigate to a group's home page and (if you have admin rights) you'll see an edit tab (or link) depending on the theme you're using.

A pretty good way to get a list of groups on your site is to go to http://www.example.com/og

Once you find the group home page and click the "edit" link, you'll see a textarea that allows you to type in a welcome message.

Hope this helps.
Kevin

I'd like to use a view instead of the default og home page. Is that possible? I entered the view url in the "Group Website" field of the group, but when I click on the group, it still goes to the default home page. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!
