Facebook Introduced New Tools for Group Admins, Members

Group admins can now write welcome posts (pictured above) that will automatically tag new members.

As previously spotted in testing, group admins, moderators and new members will now sports badges under their names.

When group members click on the names of other group members, they will now be shown group-specific profiles that contain publicly available information, including common interests and activity within the group.

The group insights tool now offers tips to admins, such as scheduling posts at times when the group’s members are most engaged.

Admins also have more control over behavior in the group, and they can temporarily turn off members’ abilities to comment and post, as well as remove members from multiple groups that they manage with a single click.
