I need some Faithlife Groups cleanup done on my account, plus some feedback:

1. I need to be removed as an admin on these two groups. I haven't done any work for these ministries for years:

https://faithlife.com/championchristian/activity 
https://faithlife.com/gospellighthsar/activity 

2. This group can be deleted. I was testing out Faithlife Giving awhile back:

https://faithlife.com/parkernathan-giving/activity 

3. On Employer/School, is there a way for me to list my current/active employer and school in Faithlife?

4. Faithlife Messages are broken in Brave. I disabled "shields" and it's still not loading. I can post a screenshot of the issue if need be.

Thanks!

    isn't this simply click picture in upper right --> account --> profile --> scroll down for employer and education (separate sections).

    If you are the group admin you should be able to delete the group by clicking on the Group Settings link (on the right side bar of that group's faithlife page). Then scroll to the bottom of the settings page and there should be a big red delete button.

    You should be able to make one of the existing group users members and admin and then simply leave the group. Have you tried this and it's not working?

    Thanks for the followup,

    That is where I'm looking on my account profile and school. I'm trying to see how to mark it "current". Am I overlooking where to mark it "current"?

    Deleting the test group worked, thanks.

    It seems I'm the only admin of those other two groups, so Faithlife may need to un-link me. They probably need to have the pastor and college president take over those groups as the admin.

    As there are begin/end dates, is a current flag necessary?

    I wouldn't think that FL would want to get involved in managing the thousands of groups ... I only see them getting involved when something is so messed up the users can't sort it out. Could you contact the pastor/college president and ask them who they wish you to pass administrative functions on to?

    The current flag would be necessary as I am currently holding the position, so there is no end date.

    I'll see what I can do on the ministry sites. The pastor was away on quite a bit of travel for the school, so he's been a little hard to get a hold of. I do know the new webmaster who took over the website, so I'll ask her if she'd be able to take these on.

    I'm missing something ... isn't the lack of an end date what tells you that it is current?

    My browser was requiring I set an end date, but I think it was a one-off fluke. I'll try it again. I was having some DNS issues causing a few websites to break. Thanks for the info!
