When creating a post, Blink has a Priority Feature. This will make the post more visible to users and, where enabled, add it to the carousel at the top of the Feed. Unlike standard Feed posts, Priority posts require readers to acknowledge they have read and reviewed the post.

Important Note ❗

Please note that Priority Posts are not editable. Because this post type requires acknowledgement from users in the audience, Blink does not allow editing after the post in published in order to prevent any users from being held to an acknowledgement where the content could have been changed without their knowledge.

How to Create a Priority Post

  2. Enter the content for your message.

  3. Select the audience for your post by choosing the relevant groups.

When users have acknowledged your post, you select "View Acknowledgements" to see who has and has not reviewed your post. Users that have not acknowledged it will show under "outstanding" whereas users that have will show as "acknowledged".

Why Is Category Selection Important?

Blink requires every post to have a category before it can be shared. Categories help to organize posts and make content easier to locate in the app.

Steps for Selecting a Category

  1. Draft the body content for your post.

  2. Choose the audience groups you want your post to reach.

  3. Select a category from the options presented in the composer. This step ensures all content is sorted appropriately and ready for distribution.
