Q. Workgroup Participants: How can I find out who is a member of any particular Workgroup?

A. For the most part, for any Workgroup of which you are a member, you can click My Workgroups in the white links at the very top of each Community Network page, then click the name of the Workgroup to go to its homepage (or search using the All Workgroup feature and a word in the Workgroup title--there are many ways to find a Workgroup). On the homepage, you will see all the faces and names of the participants. To get a listing that has more information, look for Participants in the yellow collection of links in the left column. Clicking that will take you to a listing of participants. Alternately, you could click on the words X persons that follow the heading Participants in the right column labeled Workgroup Info--a blue box with white wording. That goes to the same screen.

For a Workgroup of which you are not a member, you can find out many members by using the Search function's All Workgroups option and typing words from the Workgroup name, if known. Or you can browse through the Workgroup Categories to find a particular topic, or choose List All Workgroups from the main Workgroup page accessed by the blue tab at the top of each Workgroup page, or listed at the top left column of any Workgroup page. This may be a long list, however! Once you find the Workgroup, you can see the members in the box of images on the main page, or for more details, click on Participants to see the members.

Once you are on the page listing details about members of a Workgroup, you have several options. By clicking the headings above the names, you can choose to sort the participants by first or last name. By using the alphabet tool above the listing, you can click any highlighted letter to see just members whose last or first name starts with a particular letter.

Note that members of Workgroups can choose to not display their membership outside the Workgroup's members, so any list you see may not include every single member of the Workgroup. The same goes for listings on people's profiles--they may choose not to list membership in certain Workgroups for privacy reasons.

If you are the moderator of a list, you will see a link to invite members to the Workgroup at the top of each page in the listing. At the bottom of listings with more than one page are navigation tools to help you page through the listing (previous, next, page numbers).
