### Publicly viewable group

If you tick this checkbox, most sections of your group will be visible to anyone who visits your group - including people who do not have an account on this site.

Everyone will be able to see all discussions in the forums. However, people will still have to become a member of the group before they can post to them. The listing of group members may be restricted by the group administrator.

Regardless of this setting, your group files area and all files inside it will remain visible only to group members.
