The Info tab in GroupLife displays a responsive, dynamic one-stop-shop for all the details related to your group.

Info from Group Records

You can see all the available group details, including an image. Set your groups up for success by configuring the Group record as much information as possible.

  • Image: If an image is attached to the Group record, it displays. If no image is attached, a stock image displays instead. Note: We won't crop your image, and the image is left-aligned to maintain a 300px height and ratio.

Edit a Group's Info

If your admin allows it, you can edit information about your group, right from GroupLife! This includes things like the description, meeting details, maximum target size, and group photo. If you have this ability, you'll see an Edit button at the top of the Info tab. (The Audit Log tracks changes made to Group records via GroupLife.)
