# Overview of a single group

When you call up a group, you will see a lot of information and setting options at first glance. We would like to briefly list these here to give you an overview.

**Note**

Depending on which Role and associated permissions you have in the group, you will see more or less information and functions in your group view than we present here.
If you are missing something, please contact the ChurchTools admin of your congregation.

Next to the *name of* your group, you have the option to *change* it (1) and find the *share button*(1). You can also *edit your group membership* (2) and *add people, posts or other information to your group* (3).

At the top right you can *start* a *tour through the Groups module* (4) and *close* the *group view* (5) and return to the previous screen.

On the left-hand side, you will find a *link to the overview of all groups of the type of your group* (6), you can mark your group as a *favorite*, *share* it and call up the *context menu* (7) of your group with various setting options. The *menu items* (8) for your group are also displayed here.

Back in the middle of the page, you can quickly adjust the *[group status](https://staging.churchtools.academy/de/kurse/gruppenmodul-vertiefungskurs/lektionen/was-sind-gruppenstatus-und-welche-auswirkungen-haben-sie/) and [visibility](https://staging.churchtools.academy/en/help/churchtools-modules/about-the-groups-module/what-are-the-group-visibilities-and-what-do-they-do/)* (9) of your group and *schedule [registration](https://staging.churchtools.academy/en/help/churchtools-modules/settings-groups/how-to-make-settings-for-signing-up-to-my-groups/)* (10).

Below you will find the *information* about your group, which you can also edit directly (11) and the last [*posts*](https://staging.churchtools.academy/en/help/churchtools-modules/administration-posts/24-how-to-set-up-posts-for-my-groups/) of your group.

All *group members* will then be displayed. You have the option to [*contact them*](https://staging.churchtools.academy/en/help/churchtools-modules/groups/promoting-communication-in-the-congregation/) (12) and the [*settings*](https://staging.churchtools.academy/en/help/churchtools-modules/settings-groups/how-to-make-settings-for-members-of-my-groups/) (13) for the members.

In the widget *[Follow-ups](https://staging.churchtools.academy/en/help/churchtools-modules/basics-people/understanding-follow-ups/)* (14), current tasks are displayed and you have the option of scheduling new follow-ups for group members. In the [*Meetings*](https://staging.churchtools.academy/en/help/churchtools-modules/group-meetings/how-do-i-configure-settings-for-my-groups-meetings/)-widget lists all upcoming group meetings. You can create additional *meetings* (15) or select an existing meeting directly to make changes to it.

Some things you just want to write down quickly so you don't forget them. Ideas for activities or places you want to see together. And you can do this very quickly under *Notes* (16) .

You will then find the *meeting points* for your group and can create new *meeting points* (17).

All the *super- and subgroups* are listed below and you can *[add](https://staging.churchtools.academy/en/help/churchtools-modules/my-group/how-to-edit-super-or-subgroups-of-my-group/) more* (18 and 19).

Finally, if you have permission, [wiki](https://staging.churchtools.academy/en/help/churchtools-modules/wiki-en/wiki-overview/) categories (20) and their pages are displayed. You can also create new wiki pages directly in the categories here (21).

At the bottom left you will find the *ID* (22) of the group and can see who last made a *change to the group* (23).
