The site administrator can limit the creation of groups to users with staff and / or administrator rights. If you cannot create a group, you will most likely not have the appropriate permission and will have to contact your site administrator, e.g. via the *Contact us* form to enquire about the process of having a group set up.

If you are allowed to create a group, you see the *Create group* button on the :ref:`My groups <my_groups>` overview page.

15.

**Group name**: Provide a name for your group. This field is mandatory.

16.

The group name that you choose does not have to be unique. Other groups can have the same name. In order to distinguish them more easily, you can add a group description.

17.

**Group description**: Briefly describe what your group is about.

18.

**Open**: Check this box if you want to create an open membership group if you want users to join the group without approval from group administrators.

19.

**Request**: Check this box if you wish to create a request membership group. Users will have to send a membership request that requires group administrator approval. Open and request membership groups are mutually exclusive.

20.

**Friend invitations**: Check this box if you want to allow group members to invite friends to join the group. Regardless of this setting, group administrators can always send invitations to anyone. If the friends accept, they will be added automatically to the group.

21.

**Recommendations**: Check this box if you want to allow members to send a recommendation for joining this group to their friends from a button on the group homepage. If a request membership group has been recommended and the friends are interested in it, they would still need the approval of the group administrator to join. Friend invitations and recommendations are mutually exclusive options.
