Hello -

I have a couple of questions.

1. Is there an option when inviting a new user to a team for them to be added to all public channels within the team site?

2. Is there an option to make certain people admins of specific channels within a team?

Hi @SteveS,

No there’s no option to do either of those at the moment.

There’s a related feature suggestion [here](https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/13222458-implement-changing-channel-ownership) about channel admins - it would be great if you could upvote/add your feedback there, and maybe add a new one for inviting team members to all channels when they first sign up?

We definitely want to improve the onboarding experience so people can choose more default channels when users first sign up, so it’s great to get more feedback about what people are looking for.
