Community Groups: Option to use Advanced Lists when creating Smart Groups
We'd like to be able to replace the Basic Lists in Smart Groups with the ability to use an Advanced List.
An Advanced List lets us get much more granular with our results and pull in exactly the people we're looking to have as members as the group.
Additionally, in the event the list doesn't return the membership we expected, it is more efficient to troubleshoot an Advanced list than it is to troubleshoot a Basic List.

Using Advanced Lists to build Smart Groups

Smart Groups ability to add more than one Smart Group/Advanced List-4412
Merged I would like to have a Smart Group of Parents and faculty. I would like the ability to have 2 smart group lists or more in a community group or the ability to use a Advanced list. Currently the Smart group list can only pull in 1 role and 1 list.

I'm not sure what the current student classifications for students in Smart Lists are even! We just sent emails to students in all kinds of grades even though we selected "Parents of Students", Parental Access = Yes, Child Grade level = 7. Why did it go to certain upper classmen? Why did it go to families who have withdrawn or graduated?
Yes! This seems to be a common-sense update that adds so much usability to community groups - especially when you need parents and students of a certain grade level in one group!

This is SO needed!!
If you need to do a Community Group with Students and their Parents you have to create a Smart Group of only Parents and add in ALL the Students as Static Users, or create 1 group for Parents and 1 Group for Students.
This really needs to be looked at. Smart lists aren't very smart right now.
This is a big one and I don't see why it would be hard to implement.
Thanks Carolyn. I've merged them.
should be merged with Allison Beaton's from 4 days ago...
