    'Showcase...' group setup -- thoughts

    I realised something this morning. On the Scooploop mobile app, in the Community Feed, there is a small sub-window publicising 'Suggested Groups' -- as shown in the screengrab below. These eight featured groups (selected from a current total of fifty) are obviously ones I do not already belong to.

    What I realised today is that all eight are 'open' groups, so new members can immediately browse to see if they wish to join.

    I also realised that this group is missing out on this free publicity, because it is 'private'.

    I think this would be a great group for Scooploop to be promoting, as it can highlight that the site is for the whole country, as well as being local. (Unless people join a group, they cannot see that people are active nationwide.) But they won't be able to do this while it remains 'Private'. Just a thought.

    This discussion is now closed.

Showcase UK

To promote areas of the UK you have visited with photographs of local interest and beauty spots within 5 miles, showing off the area to others with information about it..

Photos can be taken by anyone on anything from a box brownie to a high end DSLR to mobile phones and everything in between as long as you have taken them.

Absolutely no happy snaps, holiday photos or pets and children. (these will be removed}

The aim is to show what beautiful places there are in the UK and perhaps give you the urge to visit yourself.
