To step down as the administrator of a group, you must assign someone else to manage the activities of that group. Assigning someone else to manage group activities is called passing the torch.
Add a group administrator
You can add a new group administrator from your existing members or add a new member to your group as an administrator. Group administrators have access to group settings where they can update the group profile, add new members, and edit content (such as removing folders and discussions). For more detail see Group Administrator permissions.
Open the Information tab and select Manage group.
Scroll down to the Group Administrator(s) section.
Your name will appear in the Group Administrator(s) field. Enter the email address or name of the GoOpen Michigan registered users that you would like to add as additional group administrators. Separate multiple addresses and names by a comma.
Click Add Admin.
Remove a group administrator (pass the torch)
The group must have at least two administrators in order to pass the torch.
Open the Information tab and select Manage group.
Scroll down to the Group Administrator(s) section.
Select Pass Torch next to the administrator to be removed.
This group administrator will be removed from the group and will no longer be an admin for the group. YOu can add the former administrator back to the group as a member if desired.
