New members can they only be in the community without been a member of any whatsap group. Like they only interested for announcements only
THANK YOU MEGS HILLIS

Yay Janice then this is brilliant news for you!!! I’m also in CT 💓🤗 sending all the love and good vibes 🌱
Great video! I have multiple groups which have some members overlapping (one or more persons are in more than one of said groups). If I create a community with these groups, will the overlapping members just receive one message or will they receive the same message the same number of times they each overlap from the different groups?
Very helpful thanks Meg 😍. I just created and used my first community for Scouts adding in about 15 WhatsApp groups. Took a little while but worth the effort because now everyone receives new information at the same time as each other. I also used the QR codes to create an info graphic to make joining effortless.

Thanks Megs! If there is more then one group in a community, can members in that community join any group within that community? Or are the groups still closed?
Hi there, thank you for your post. Just as a matter of interest can I use the Community/group set-up as a way to follow threads and discussions. Eg. I have run an online Bible Study and and currently using Google Meets and then I use my WhatsApp group for announcements and also discussions but as you would imagine it its difficult following threads of different questions asked and the discussions around these? I remember a few years back coming across an app that was specifically developed around that scenario but that app has since disappeared like the disappearing messages 🤷♂
1. i started a community...how can groups find me??? 2. 1 x community can hold 50 groups of 1000 users...does that mean you build a community of 50 000 people? 3. how do i find groups and how do i make my group public...
Some questions: Joining a community is still based on a phonenumber, right? So when I make a community I need phonenumbers from all members? Or can I send invites by email for example? And when I add members, can they see phonenumbers from other members like in the WhatsApp group option? Why I am asking. I wanna start up a community with different groups for workshops. But the members/clients don't know each other so I wanna take care of their privacy.
I would love to use this to better organise our school parents! If we created a group for each classroom, is there a way to "lock" the group, so only members of that group/parents of that class can see and access that chat?
how to I allow chat between all the people in a group? I set up a small group and they are asking me to allow them to submit chats and they are not able.... I have an Apple.... I have watched a bunch of these videos and no one addresses this
Can people chat within the group and post things? I want the individual groups within the community to be free and open for people the post things? Does it have to go through an admin within the groups?
Hi, does it allow us to have a privacy mode so members are hidden from others unless they are admin?
I've created a community group with chat groups A, B & C. Whenever chat group A people text each other within their own chat, it pings a message notification on the community group instead of their own chat group A. This can be confusing as it gives the impression that the message was sent to the community group by admin. And implication is, all the ppl may be concerned if their messaging activities are also seen by others. And then also when there’s a new message on a group, you open the community first and then the group chat. How to get the individual chat groups' text stay out of the community radar and appears only in their own chat groups?
#feelingold If I am creating a community from scratch, and groups from scratch, would I start by adding my members to the group? Would they then by default be members of the community? I obviously want all members to receive the announcements, which ever group they are in. Or do I need to add them to the community, then they decide on the group they want to join?
Im trying to find someone who had been posting videos on KZread, but he switched to Whatsapp. The KZread channel was called Pet Goose George. Is there a way to search for him using Whatsapp. I'm assuming that he uses the same Pet Goose George name in Whatsapp. Thanks.
For a second i thought it was a feature like a community on reddit that gives the possibility to meet new people. 😂
So you that means whomever you add to a community has access to all the groups on the community? For instance if it’s a group and you have say a management group on the community , anyone on the community can got on that group?
Hi Megs Question - What is the situation about people seeing peoples numbers from other groups that sit within the community? Just slightly concerned about setting one up and the privacy settings. If someone is in group A can they see that Group B exists? Can they see the posts in Group B, can they see the members in Group B? Thanks

This is the same question that I have and don’t find any answer 🫤
Can you post from a camera or tablet feed directly to a WA group, Conmunity Announcement or indeed to a Channel (which I am currently using)
So I have multiple groups for my online coaching business. If I add them to a community I don’t want people to be able to choose a group that they can join as I’ve specifically put people into different groups. I also don’t want people to be able to see what goes into individual groups unless they are a member. Is this possible?
You can add up to 50 groups not 500.
May someone please explain how do I archive these communities from appearing my chats
can we create more than one community from the same account and same android device? If yes How?
Can the members see other members in the group?!
Please how can I make community call
It looks like a "Group" function. Create a new group, add some users to it, & then message the group & everyone in the group gets the message. Is there anything more to it than that?

are you perhaps using a whatsapp business account? businesses aren’t able to create communities
Just subscribed because wow 👌🏾 👏🏽. Hi Meg I'm a bit lost my organization would like to use this please can you help me understand again 1. Why we get two groups when creating community's 2. And you mentioned adding groups in the community on your tutorial with +/- 500 groups who administrators all of them or can you make admins as the creator 3. I like the group video function that will really help

1. There is an announcements channel where only Admins can send messages so they are not buried beneath all the reactions of people afterwards.
I can’t search or join any
South African right? Cheers Megs
