Creating a Group with World Rally Sport

You can create groups very easily with worldrallysport.com. Groups allow you to create and publish content relevant to your group memebership.

You can create open groups, invite only groups, or closed groups where you can publish your content to the community.

Some examples of useful groups

- Team Groups
-Local Clubs Groups
- Sponsor Groups
- Fan Groups
- Media Groups
- Organizing Groups
- and more!

You can create a group very quickly and seamlessly. Once the group is created you will now have the option of publishing all forms of media content directly to the group.


To Create a Group:

Group Name: Your group requires a group name. Keep it as short and descriptive as possible.

Description: Your group requires a brief description to tell people what your group is all about!

Banner image: you can design your own group banner and upload it here. Images 590x110 give the best results.

You can embed a video into your group page if you have one that you think is relevant to your group!

Then you can give a brief group write-up telling people why they should join your group/ what your group is all about / and what you hope to accomplish with your group.

Once your group is published you will then be able to create "Group Specific Content". Keep in mind the content you create will be published to your profile, but it will also get added to the group as a group added content. People can then view the group and quickly update themselves on relevant content to the group.

I found it really nice and easy to use! I look forward to having people expand and add to the WCRA group!

Chris, how about the ability to have blog posts from another site pop up into the blog entry in our groups? It would save a lot of time.

Or perhaps have an existing RSS feed(like from our team site), either listed in our group or feed content to WRS?

Cheers! John

Do you mind if we create groups for non rally related stuff? Like a clothing line we are starting up? Not really rally gear, but you could wear it rallying I guess!!!!

You can create groups regarding all appropriate topics, so long as it does not infringe upon our Terms of Use (http://www.worldrallysport.com/content/terms-and-conditions).

When creating a group think if it would be both relevant and interesting to the community. If YES then create your group for all to enjoy.
