Editing an existing group

1. Log in as an administrator
2. Hover over "Wiki" and click on "Administer Wiki"
3. Click on the "Groups" link to bring up an overview of all the groups
4. You have two options:
   1. Click the group name for the group you want to edit
      • On the group page click "Edit" in the top left corner (this will open a page where you can edit the members of the group (if any))
   2. Click on the small yellow pencil near the group you want to edit (this will open a lightbox with the members of that group)
5. Here's how you can add a new user to the group:
   • Start typing the user's name in the "Users to add" input field. After starting to type, if the user exists, a suggest feature will be displayed, containing a list of all the users whose names contain the typed letters, so you can select the user you want from that list
   • Click "Add"

Deleting an existing group

1. Log in as an administrator
2. Hover over "Wiki" and click on "Administer Wiki"
3. Click on the "Groups" link to bring up an overview of all the groups
4. Delete the group by clicking on the red "X" button for the group you wish to delete

   

   When you delete a group, the users or groups in that group are not deleted. If you also want to delete the members of the group, you will have to delete them manually from the Users and the Groups pages.

Modify the number of groups displayed in the list

This is valid as of v3.5 (I think it works on any 3.x version).

You have to edit XWiki.AdminGroupsSheet for groups.

The page contains a line like this:

Just replace it with:

where 100 is the number of items displayed per page.
