AEM Communities features require site visitors to become members and login to the community site before being able to post content. Thus, community site templates, from which a community site is created, are designed to include a login feature as well as user profiles, messaging, search, moderation, and translation.

A community site will support members creating community groups when the community groups function is included in the selected community site template.
