Something like Facebook groups, I guess.

I guess this can be fixed up with private discussions if I'm not mistaken... I honestly reckon he means private messages between more than just one other recipient.

    If you mean a group/private discussion then this extension is what you are looking for.

    If not, can you please elaborate more so we can understand what you are trying to ask.

    Hey! I am exactly looking for something like that. Want to create multiple private discussions with a group of about 200 community members. Is there something that can help me create a group of this 200 people, such that in each private discussion that I create I can just add that group as the recipient?

      luceos Yeah using it already! Was just curious if I could create a group of people, such that everytime in a private discussion where I want to add all of these people, I could actually just add that group.

      staion Aren't the Tags like Groups? @staion 's question helped me understand how I could use tags to create a group like this!

        PalakS create a permission group, you can add permission groups to private discussions in byobu too.

          Can you guide me a little bit more on how exactly I could create a permission group?

          luceos

          I think you are referring to a permission group like admins, mods etc ?

            PalakS I do; they don't necessarily need to own any additional permissions..

              luceos

              Yeah! I too was referring to the same here;

              PalakS I could use tags to create a group like this!

              I think I incorrectly used the word 'tags' for permission groups ? By tags I actually meant tags like mods, experts etc.

                PalakS Another way to do Private discussions, like @luceos mentioned above, is to make a tag, and only allow admins, or mods to see it, or add a custom group and add users to it. Then, when you start a discussion in that group, only those users will see it, and that also removes the need for any extensions
