Create forum groups

To create a forum group, you must perform the following:

  1. Get an instance of the manager.
    Get instance of the ForumsManager object.
  2. Create new forum group.
    To create new forum group, call the CreateGroup method of the manager.
  3. Set the properties.
    Set the properties of the ForumGroup instance. When creating new forum group, its Ordinal value is assigned to be the last. If you want to manually assign the Ordinal value, you must make sure to update accordingly the Ordinal values of the other forum groups. For more information, see For developers: Reorder forum groups.
  4. Save the changes.
    Save the changes to the manager.
