We have been fielding quite a few questions about the Group feature on the platform.
and I have 2 scenarios, and this seemed the most obvious place to put them.
One of the big benefits of the groups feature is the mapping of a sub-group on the OFN eco-system.
We have a group interested in using the OFN first as a directory for CSAs throughout the country. Then for the e-commerce abilities should individual CSAs wish to do so. For now they only want to look at the map and profiles and use the hubs tab, but do not want to show the producers tab, as in their case, it is redundant. Would it be possible to remove a tab on a group?
I imagine this would mean creating a toggle on the group admin page for disabling tabs.
Next scenario, a regional food system is just finishing off a new website, and are struggling with choosing what mapping solution they will use, and they want to know if they can embed only the group map on their new website? It is an excellent way to softstart the on boarding of various groups throughout the country to start using the OFN first as a directory, and hopefully later for all our other magic!
Is it possible to embed a group map externally? and if not, what would it take to do so?
