This page also serves as the template for the group pages section. It will be copied along with the Template page to the specified path on each group's creation to form the group's group pages section.
On the page, there will be a Repeater for displaying the articles. We will also need the User contributions module web parts providing on-site adding and editing of articles. For more details about the User contributions concept, please refer to the Module User contributions chapter of Kentico CMS Developer's Guide.
