A user-created Page can link a Channel — and the Page surfaces it so visitors know "this page has a channel — join it too." A Nyburs channel is a group-chat / discussion surface (like a WhatsApp/Telegram channel): once you join, members message and discuss. The Page keeps its own Posts; the channel is where people talk. Page & channel are independently followable / joinable and cross-linked both ways. Mockup for design sign-off.
affiliated_pages). Land that first, or build R10's page as a thin layer over the existing place↔community join? Rec · build on Pages platform (already in design)On a party page (same shell as Pages-platform PP4), a "Channel" card sits below the header: channel name · @handle · member count · Join channel. A dashed divider makes the split explicit — the page's own Posts (its timeline) are separate from the channel, which is a group chat you join to discuss. The 1:1 chip signals one channel per page.
Manage Page → Channel section, before any link. An honest empty state explains the value, then two CTAs: Create a channel (new) or Link a channel you own (existing). The owner chip in the bar marks this as the owner-only management surface. Visible only on user-created page shells.
A segmented toggle holds both paths. Create = name + @handle, with a note that it's an open discussion group chat by default (reuses the existing channel create flow, then auto-links). Link existing = a radio list of channels the caller owns — only their own channels are selectable; the rest are dimmed.
After linking, the section shows the channel with Manage channel (opens channel admin) and Unlink (confirm first). An authz note states the ground truth: you own this page and this channel. Unlink never deletes the channel — it just removes the surface link.
The real channel surface, like the app's "Village Notice Board": header (avatar + name + member count + ⋯), a discussion of member messages (others left, your own green bubble, date divider, "created this channel" system line) and a real composer (Type a message + camera + mic). At the top, the new "Affiliated page" chip links back to the page.
The mental model, plainly: the page = identity + posts (a timeline you follow); the channel = a group chat you join to discuss with other members. Two surfaces — follow the page, join the channel, or both. This is the explainer a visitor sees when they tap "What's the difference?".
