Today, we just released a new feature that allows you to create public and private groups. Members of a group will be able to share private items, discuss with other members and recommend trading items. How to Create a Group - In QuantShare website, click on "Groups" in the top menu - Click on "Create a new group" - Type the group name, description and select the group type (public or private) - Click on "Create Group" But why should you create a group? There are several reasons and here are some: - You have a website and you want to share trading items only with your readers or subscribers - You have a team and you want to have a group where you can discuss and share trading items only with members of your team - You want to create a specialized public group so that other traders can contribute - You want to exchange trading items privately with other QuantShare members How to Become Member of a Group - Go to "Groups" page - Click on the group link - Click on "Send request to join this group" If the group is public then you will be member of the group instantly. If the group is private then a request will be sent to the admin of the group. Once the admin accepts your request, you will get a notification (Home - Notifications) Once you become a member of a group, you will be able to download private trading items, display recommended trading items and create/respond to topics in the discussion board. Important Note: Please read the description of the group as the admin may put some specific conditions to be met in order to become a member. Example: QuantShare Private Group To be part of this group, you need to upload at least 3 trading items. One of these items must be private and associated with the "QuantShare Private" group How to Share a Trading Item to a Specific Group - In QuantShare application, select "Tools" then "Sharing Server" - Select the item you want to upload (must be an item that you have created and not an item that you downloaded from the sharing server) - Click on "Share selected item" - Type the item name/title, description then enter the Group ID next to "(Group ID)" How to find the group ID?: When visiting a group, check the URL in the top bar of your browser. Example: https://www.quantshare.com/index.php?option=group/group&lid=1 The group ID is the number located just after "lid=". In this case, the group ID is 1.
