Linking System 1.1.5

Is there an option for a player to join a steam group? or would that be outside the scope of this plugin?

at the moment, there are no Steam Groups in the plugin. So far, no one has convinced me of the effectiveness of this for servers...

i am looking too for the steam group ! 

Why ?

• Steam Groups show up in search results and recommendations, giving the server exposure to players who are browsing related games or communities.
• This is free marketing that doesn’t require paid ads.
• You can post announcements, updates, and events directly to all group members, and they will see a notification on Steam.
• This helps reach players who may not check Discord or other platforms regularly.
• A Steam Group gives the server an official presence on Steam, which makes it look more established and trustworthy.
• New players often check for Steam Groups before joining, especially if they are cautious about private servers.
• Not everyone uses Discord actively. Some players prefer to follow updates or stay connected directly through Steam.
• Friends can see when someone joins or plays a game through the group, which can bring in new players organically.
• It strengthens the sense of belonging, since the group is tied to the platform where they already play the game.

it works as an additional visibility... 

Or can we have the permission to modify the plugin to support the steam grup our selfs ?

Fair enough. We'll add it!
