Changing community group reference name

Is it possible to change the name of a group so that it is easier to “@” similar to how we can with the anking maintainer group.

I know that I can edit the “OMM (Jwill) Maintainers” part but that doesn’t allow me to @ anyone, the “a19986ae-aa32-4a86-a19d-baa67d05efc6-admin-group” is what has to be used and is not very intuitive to type out and I don’t see any way to change it on my end.

I have changed it to OMM-Maintainers

Let me know if that’s fine or you want it to be something else. It should work!

@Ahmed7 Random question though. If I add people to this group does it make them a maintainer of the deck? I know that if I add someone as a maintainer on AnkiHub they automatically get added to this group. but does it work the other way?

I ask bc I have a couple people that help out with voting on some suggestions but they aren’t maintainers.

I am not 100% sure, for the AnKing deck we created a separate group for this.

So there is the main one that automatically updates (the one you are using right now) → (for the anking deck we don’t touch that)

If you can make a separate group and do this, I’d suggest that since otherwise it might mess that group up that automatically updates. Not sure if you are able to however.

@andrew does adding people to the automatically updating group on the community cause them to become maintainers even if you did not add them as maintainers?

Yeah, I knew that about the Anking deck which is what prompted my question.
I don’t think I have the ability to make another group myself either

@Ahmed7 I might be able to just use the old group for it though. I just changed the name of the maintainer group for the old deck to “OMM (Jwill) Support” would you mind changing that group from “923ef413-f36c-4877-a8e3-be1e45e7301d-admin-group” to “OMM-Support”

Done!
