In the Manage channel page. This is where channels are created, these channels are categorized into 3 types;

&#x20;`Public`  which means anyone who is part of the church will be eligible to join the channel and then receive and send messages.

&#x20;`Direct Messages`  means the channel is created by the admin and the admin chooses the church member that he/she wants to message.

&#x20;`Private`  means that the admin can create the channel and the can invite other admins and church members to join so that the interactions are limited to only the channel members.\ <br>

In that chat page the admin is able to view the messages sent from either another admin or a church member.

### Moderation

In the moderation page, the admin is able to act as a content moderator in the various channel chats to either delete the messages and also ban/unban users.\
\
There also moderation logs as well.\ <br>

### Analytics

In the analytics page we give the admins more visual display of the activity that takes place in the different channels created in the account. You can know the top users, most active channels and so on.<br>

### Chat Invitation
