With this guide I will teach you how to properly use the For User Groups feature or the hidden block as some may call it.

What is a Hidden Block?

A hidden block is something that prevents the public eye from seeing certain text while keeping the post still public. The image below will show you what it looks like.

How do I perform this?
This can be done by selecting the 3 dots next to Font Family and selecting "For user groups"

Now you will have this:

Right where it says GROUPS= you will insert the IDs for the group that you want the text to be seen to. Below will show IDs that will be used commonly and what group they belong to:
Project Manager = 36
TF2 Lead Admin= 121
TF2 Sr. Admin = 122
TF2 Admin = 123
TF2 Moderator = 12
TF2 Staff Badge = 125

(For Multiple IDs add , after each ID.)

After you add your IDs your text box should look like this:

(In this situation I have used the Group IDs for TF2 Administrator or better known as Redmin, TF2 Senior Moderator, TF2 Moderator & TF2 Admin. Allowing only them to see this message. The text "Messages goes here!" is where you will insert the text only you want them to see.)

After you do all of this your message will look like this:

This is a For User Group message all TF2 Staff can see:

Content of this hidden block can only be seen by members of: [Staff Rank] TF2 Moderator, [Staff Rank 3] TF2 Admin, [Staff Rank 2] TF2 Senior Admin, [Staff Rank 1] TF2 Lead Admin


This is a For User Group message all CS Staff can see:

Content of this hidden block can only be seen by members of: [Master] Board Moderator [Do not give out], [Master] Board Administrator [Do not give out]


This is a For User Group message all Staff can see regardless of game.

Content of this hidden block can only be seen by members of: [Staff Rank] TF2 Moderator, [Staff Rank 3] TF2 Admin, [Staff Rank 2] TF2 Senior Admin, [Staff Rank 1] TF2 Lead Admin, [Master] Board Moderator [Do not give out], [Master] Board Administrator [Do not give out], [Staff Rank] Project Manager


Overall I think this just about sums up how to use this helpful feature, thank you for reading this post!
