Runtime Dependencies

This app requires the following apps to be enabled:

Install Nextcloud Collectives

The Collectives app can be installed from the Nextcloud App Store.

In your Nextcloud instance, simply navigate to »Apps«, find the »Collectives« app and enable it.

Configuration

Initial Content for new collectives

It’s possible to create custom content for new collectives by putting files in the app skeleton directory at data/app_<INSTANCE_ID>/collectives/skeleton. New collectives start with the contents of this directory.

Create a Readme.md to change the landing page that is opened automatically when entering a collective.

If the skeleton directory doesn’t contain a Readme.md, the default landing page from apps/collectives/skeleton/Readme.md will be copied into the collectives directory instead.

Allow for groups in your collectives

You can configure the circles app to allow adding groups to circles. Since the collectives app relies on the circles app for user management this also allows adding entire groups to collectives.

Keep in mind thought that in contrast to circles groups can only be managed by server admins.
