Post Viewing and Management

The Posts & Comments page allows you to organize, monitor, and manage all posts and comments across your communities. This interface provides comprehensive tools for post moderation and oversight.

Accessing Post Management

  1. Navigate to "Posts & Comment" in the left sidebar menu

  2. The post & Comment management page will display with filtering options and post status tabs

This page will show the posts attached to a given context. A context can be: an external content, a community or a user. For communities and users, it will be mandatory to input the respective ID. For example:

  1. To see all the external contents of an admin's network, simply choose "Content" from the filter bar.

  2. To see all the posts of a community's feed, choose "Community" and input the chosen community's ID or name.

  3. To see all the posts of a user's feed, choose "User" and input the chosen user's ID or display name.

  4. To see the post of a specific post's ID choose "Post" and input the chosen user's ID.

There are options to filter posts and reveal only ones that are flagged, as well as deleting a post if admin's deem it to be necessary.
