How can I create, edit or delete a channel?

Creating a Channel

  1. To create a new channel, go to the "Channels" section in the Admin Console and click on the button "+ Add new channel" in the top right-hand corner of the main menu.
  2. A window will then open in which you can select a channel name, a channel image and a channel description.
  3. Clicking on the field "Create channel" completes the process.

To make further settings for the channel, search for the channel in the overview and click on the channel name. This will open the settings for the respective channel.

In the "Authorization" section you can set who is allowed to create posts in this channel in the future, e.g. only channel owners or all users.

Under the tab "Members" you can manage the members of the channel. This includes adding, removing and organizing roles. How this works is described here.
