category such as Dance, History, etc., or you can classify as General. This
information is used for your different group views. You create the categories.

You next choose your meeting day and what part of the day the meeting takes
place but you can add free text as well. You then add the venue, the group
leader, the primary email address, and you have an option to state the cost if you
want to.
I added a Garden Group and this is my data: -

Note that the group leader name and contact details come from u3a Contacts so
whatever you add there is reflected here. This is why you need to consider what
data you enter on the u3a Contacts area so that you get the display here that
you prefer. In this example the email address of Alan has been hidden (cloaked)
but by clicking on Group email the member or visitor will get a contact form to
complete as was the case with Site Builder.

As part of your pre-migration checklist you will be collecting this data in
advance. Like u3a Venues and u3a Contacts your Migrator will assist getting this
data onto your site initially if you need help. Your group data will be migrated
with your other data when you are migrating using your Site Builder data but you
will need to gather the data and use the u3a Import/Export facility if you are
opting for a Starter site.

Now that I have a new Group I need to add some data to it. I return to my
Groups list and navigate to Garden Group, although I could have completed
these next steps while I was adding the group data as you can see below.
