  2. The "Group" dropdown includes myUMBC Groups your site has recently added. If the myUMBC Group you want to use is not in the list, select "Add New Group", type in the myUMBC Group Token, then click "Add"

  3. Once a myUMBC Group is selected, pick the Section you wish to include content from

    1. You can optionally specify tags, which filters the content shown to items containing at least one of the specified tags

  4. Select how many items you want displayed in the list

  5. Click the "Save"
