Featured Feed Posts

Use the carousel to prioritize posts

Updated over a week ago

Introduction

The Carousel provides administrators with an additional method to make sure the best bottom-up and top-down content is seen by its intended audience by elevating its presence in Feed. When this feature is enabled, you will find any Featured posts created appear at the top of the app and can be cycled through.

If you are looking to get this feature turned on for your Organization, reach out to your Customer Success Manager, or to our Support Team, support@joinblink.com.

As Featuring Posts is only accessible to Team Admins, Content Moderators, and Organization Admins, only they can add Posts to the Featured Post Carousel.
