Template Overview
The Small Group Template #1 is designed to help you showcase group opportunities. You can add information about specific groups, studies, or classes with clear contact information for next steps to get involved or attend.
Your template consists of a list view of groups and group detail pages.
The Small Group Finder Layout uses a page for the welcome content above the finder and events (the Small Groups you've created) to display on your template.

Small Group Details
The Small Group Template #1 is designed to help you showcase group opportunities. You can add information about specific groups, studies, or classes with clear contact information for next steps to get involved or attend.
Your template consists of a list view of groups with filtesr and group detail pages.
The Small Group Finder Layout uses a page for the welcome content above the finder and events (the Small Groups you've created) to display on your template.
NOTE: Your categories will first need to be setup under Events > Small groups > Categories Tab. Each of your class categories need to be added to the parent Sunday Morning Classes category, and then both the parent and individual category need to be assigned to the group.
Publish and Assign a Campus
In order to display your newly created group, you will need to publish the information. You can also keep the group info as a draft in the list of groups to edit and publish on a later date.
Also, make sure your group is published to one of the Campus groups within the "Campus" series (ie: Fair Hills, Glasgow and Red Lion). This will ensure that your group is added to a campus and will be included in the "Campus" filter dropdown.
Finishing Up
Now that you’ve finished adding the content, you can place it in the navigation so people can easily find the layout.
