Groups.io supports groups with multiple moderators and owners, along with a full permissions system. To add someone as a moderator, they must first be a member of your group.
Navigate to the group on Groups.io and click on the Members tab. From there, click on the member you would like to make a moderator. You will then be able to make them a moderator or an owner, as well as set the permissions that they have.
I suggest more precise wording in par. 2: "Navigate to the group on Groups.io and click on Admin/members in the left sidebar.... [It is not obvious that the "Members tab" mentioned in this help page is actually under "Admin." Thanks!
Also it is not clear what you do once you find the member to make them a moderator. I have tried clicking on lots of things but still cannot work it out. This is not at all clear. Thanks Julia
Responding to Julia's question: after opening the record of the person to be made a moderator, click on the window "Role". It offers three options: Owner, Moderator, and Member. Select moderator. Click "save" at the bottom of the screen after making your selection. Each person can have only one role; the owner has all permissions, the moderator more limited permissions.
Thank you Robert. That is clear. Best Julia
