How to Change a Group's Type

You can access this feature from the MSL Admin site. Only Super Admins with Site Admins permissions can change a Group's Type.

Before proceeding, changing a Group's Type can affect if and where it is displayed on your MSL website.

You can change a Group's Type, but only if the current parent organisation's grouping type allows it. If not, move the group to a different parent organisation, or adjust the parent organisation's grouping type's allowed child types, if required.

For further information, see Group Details.
