This article explains how to update your chapter’s settings, including the title, description, team members, location, thumbnail, social links, and access controls.
Edit your chapter details
You can update the following fields in your chapter settings:
Title
The title is the official identifier of your chapter. Make sure it accurately represents your chapter’s purpose.
Description
Use the description field to provide a summary of your chapter’s purpose, goals, and values.
Group URL
The group URL cannot be changed after your chapter has hosted events.
Location
The location field sets the physical location of your community. This is used as the default location for your chapter’s events. You can add more granular location details by selecting the location entry.
Thumbnail
The thumbnail is a visual image that represents your chapter across the platform. Use this field to upload or update the image.
Manage your team
In the Team section, you can view each chapter team member, including their name, profile image, and role. To add a team member:
- Select Add Member.
- Enter the new member’s name, email address, role, and visibility status.
- Select Save.
Adding, modifying, and removing team members is a team role permission set by HQ admins. All permissions may not be available based on the team role.
Configure social and custom links
You can add social media and custom links to improve the accessibility of your chapter page. The following platforms are supported, including:
- X (formerly Twitter)
- Custom link (any URL)
These links appear as icons on your chapter page. HQ admins determine which social links show and if organizers can add a custom link to their chapter page.
Set chapter access
HQ admins can configure chapter visibility using the following options:
- Private—Makes group events and discussions accessible to chapter members only.
- Hidden—Removes the chapter from all searches and site pages. Only users with a direct link to the chapter can access it.

Membership
The Membership section controls how users join the chapter. Select one of the following options:
- Open — Anyone can join the chapter without an invitation or approval. This is the default selection.
- Invite only — Users must receive an invitation before they can join the chapter.
- Application required — Users must submit an application to join. Chapter admins can review and approve requests before granting access.
Save your changes
After editing any field, select Save. Changes are immediately applied across the platform.
