It is possible to publish through the essentials, standard and premium offer, in the same way. With the essentials offer, you'll be limited to 30 days of history on the news feed though.

All platform members have the possibility to post in a group where they belong, if this has been authorized by a group admin.

All platform members can share a private post with one or more recipient(s).

Guest users, whose access to the platform is limited to groups defined by an administrator, can only share a private post with members of the groups to which they belong.

The visibility of a post is set by the recipients to whom it is addressed:

You can also schedule a post. To do so, select a programming date and time in the Program tab and click on Program.

You have the option to share or republish a group's post and forward it to one or more user(s) or even to a group so that it’s present in another platform area.

To share or duplicate a post, click on the chevron in the upper right corner of the post. You can then:

Share to share the post with a group or with users. This action is not available on secret private groups. By sharing a post, you don't share any comments related to the latter.

When you share this post, the author of the original post will be visible.

Note: a member has the possibility to share the post of another member of the group.

Re-publishing allows you to duplicate the post, to share it with other recipients. A member cannot re-post another group member's post. Though, he has this option for the posts he has himself written .

By re-publishing a post, you don't share any comments related with it.

You also have the option of copying the link via the post to share it with a user via chat or a private post, or even through a post, to all the group members.

By clicking on this link, the user will be able to access the post but also the comments and reactions related with it and then be able to comment and react. It is important to note that this user will only be able to carry out these actions, if he has access to the group in which the original post has been shared and the group administrators has authorized him to post in the group.

To modify a post, click on the chevron of a contribution then on Edit. Only the author of a contribution can modify it.

The post’s author has the option of allowing group members to edit the post. To do so, once on the post page, he must select the Editing options tab and then activate the Allow recipients to edit option.

To give more visibility to a post that seems important, a group admin can pin it by clicking on the chevron and selecting the Pin option. This contribution will then appear at the top of the group’s news feed, which is concerned.

An administrator can also give visibility to a post by selecting the Set as important option. This contribution will then appear at the top of the group member's news feed, until they have seen it.

To delete a contribution, click on the chevron then on Delete. Only the author of the contribution and the administrators (if they have access to it) can delete a contribution.
