- If you are creating a community for the first time, the wizard will guide you through the steps.
- First you give the community a name, write a short description and create a profile picture for the community. The name can be up to 24 characters long
- Now it’s time to add groups to the community. If you want to add an existing group to the community, tap on “Add existing groups”.
- Select the desired group and tap on the green arrow. To add an existing group to the community, you must be the admin of the group.
- You can also create up to ten new WhatsApp groups within the community. To do this, select “Create new group”.
