Groups vs Forum
Groups vs Forum
In our mareXtreme community space, Groups and the Forum offer similar functions but differ in structure and specific use cases.
In summary:
Groups = Smaller, closer-knit communities with customizable interactions and more privacy: ECS, EWS, Modellers, Data, Participation,...
Forum = Larger, open discussions, often with broader topics concerning everyone
Wix Groups
Purpose: Wix Groups is designed for community building and group interactions. It connects small or thematically focused groups of users.
Features:
Members can create groups based on shared interests.
Group members can share posts, comment, and interact with one another.
It’s geared toward managing smaller, tighter-knit communities, with options to assign administrators and moderators.
Groups often have specific privacy settings (e.g., private vs. public groups).
Ideal for focused, intimate conversations or working groups.
Wix Forum
Purpose: Wix Forum is more like a traditional internet forum, where communication happens in public threads organized by different categories.
Features:
A forum consists of multiple categories where discussions on various topics can take place.
Users can create topics, post replies, and engage in discussions.
The interactions are more topic-based and less focused on the intimacy of the community.
It’s great for fostering broad discussions where posts are visible to everyone.
Forums typically don't have closed groups or private discussions.
Differences in Usage:
Target Audience:
Groups are suitable for specific, focused communities with more social interaction.
Forum is better for broad discussions, where the focus is on the exchange of information and opinions.
Interaction:
Groups allow for more intense interaction among members, almost like a social network feature.
Forum is more structured for public discussions, where posts are accessible to all users.
