How to Create a Featured Banner on GroupOS

Featured Banners are the first thing your members see when they visit the community.

Use them to promote announcements, events, or big wins. These banners sit right at the top of the Newsfeed and are great for capturing attention instantly.

Here’s how to set one up:

Step 1: Upload Your Banner Images

You’ll need to upload two image sizes for best results across devices:

  • Mobile app: 1280 x 720 px

  • Website: 1920 x 540 px

💡 Supported formats: JPEG, PNG
📦 Max file size per image: 10MB

Step 2: Name the Banner

Give your banner a name. This label is only visible to Admins and helps you identify it in your dashboard.

Step 3: Add a Link

Enter a URL for where users will be redirected when they click on the banner. You can use this to drive traffic to events, documents, landing pages, or any resource.

Step 4: Set the Publish Dates

Choose when the banner goes live and when it should expire:

  • The default start time is the moment you upload it

  • You can adjust the start and end dates as needed to control its visibility

Step 5: Choose Your Audience

Decide who should see this banner:

  • All Members – show it to your entire community

  • Specific Group – limit visibility to a particular member group or segment

Step 6: Set It Live

Once everything is set, hit Publish to make your banner live.
