### Subtypes

[](#subtypes)

Registering new subtypes and configuring them is made easy.

Here is an example of how to remove groups from the top level of the site, and making them subgroups of a new subtype called classroom.

```
		$svc = elgg()->groups;
		/* @var $svc \hypeJunction\Groups\GroupsService */

		$svc->registerSubtype('classroom', [
			'labels' => [
				'en' => [
					'item' => 'Classroom',
					'collection' => 'Classrooms',
				],
			],
			'root' => true,
			'identifier' => 'classrooms',
			'class' => \CustomPlugin\Classroom::class,
			'collections' => [
				'all' => \CustomPlugin\DefaultClassroomCollection::class,
				'owner' => \CustomPlugin\OwnedClassroomCollection::class,
				'member' => \CustomPlugin\JoinedClassroomCollection::class,
			],
		]);

		$svc->registerSubtype('group', [
			'site_menu' => false,
			'labels' => [
				'en' => [
					'item' => 'Group',
					'collection' => 'Groups',
				],
			],
			'root' => false,
			'parents' => ['classroom'],
			'identifier' => 'groups',
		]);
```

You can put multiple subtypes into a collection by assigning them to the same `identifier`, e.g. you could create `usa_state` and `canada_province` subtypes and register them for `regions` identifier.

### Fields

Fields are managed by hypePost. Please see the documentation there for more information.
