Open Community Groups Documentation

Open Community Groups (OCG) helps communities run groups, events, and speaker programs in one platform. Whether you are attending your first event or running a whole community, these docs will help you understand how OCG works, get common tasks done, and troubleshoot issues when something does not work as expected.

How OCG Is Organized

OCG is organized around one public site and three dashboards, each scoped to a different kind of work.

Public Site

The public site is where people discover groups and events. This is where you browse Explore, RSVP to events, check in, and submit to Call for Speakers.

User Dashboard

The user dashboard is where you manage your personal activity in OCG: your upcoming events, profile, invitations, session proposals, and submissions all live here.

Community Dashboard

The community dashboard covers community-wide setup and management. Use it to shape the community's identity and to manage team access, regions, group and event categories, analytics, and groups.

Group Dashboard

The group dashboard is where organizers run groups and events day to day, managing events, organizers, members, sponsors, and communication.
