Layout & Visibility Settings

Choose between card view and list view for the layout of your Products, Events, and Challenges pages.

If you'd like any of your Spaces to not be visible to the community for any reason, change Display Page to “Hidden” in the Visibility Settings section of the page editor.

Spaces

Spaces are where all organized discussions in your community will live.

We start you off with a Home space that aggregates all posts across all of a user's spaces--a place where a member gets a snapshot of everything going on across all aspects of the community in which they are involved. To minimize any confusion about where those posts are coming from, all posts are marked with an indicator of which page they belong to.

Aside from the Home page, you can create as many additional community spaces as you'd like. You can also edit what members are and aren’t allowed to post on each forum by clicking in to edit the page and toggling on and off the relevant posting permissions. You can set up discussions with varying degrees of Member posting permissions.

General Settings

You can set up Spaces with varying degrees of Member posting privileges:

• Community Discussion Style: By leaving "Posts" and "Comments" enabled, you will have created a Forum page that is fully equipped for community discussion.
• Announcement Board Style: To create a page with Admin-only posting abilities, toggle off "Posts," which will disable Member Posting.
• Newsletter Mode: If you'd like your Members to be emailed each time you make a post in a Space, toggle off "Posts" to disable Member posting and toggle on "Newsletter" to trigger an email with each post you

In any style of Space, you can also disable Member commenting, by toggling off "Commenting."

In posts in Spaces, Members can share a wide range of files: .mp4, .mp3, .jpg, .png, Word (.docx, .doc), Powerpoint (.pptx, .ppt), Excel (.xls, .xlsx), .csv,.txt, and .zip

Members can also “linkify” any text in a post! To create a link from existing text, highlight the text in your post draft and click the "Link" button in the editor toolbar. Doing so will open a popover allowing you to Linkify the text by entering a URL.

Layout Settings

Choose between card view and list view for the layout of your spaces. Card view encourages engagement, which is why we recommend it for Spaces like community discussions or blogs. List view is more condensed, and we recommend it for more active Spaces like question forums.

Visibility Settings

If you'd like any of your Spaces to not be visible to the community for any reason, change Display Page to “Hidden” in the Visibility Settings section of the page editor.

Restricted-Access Spaces

If you have certain spaces that you only want to be accessible to Members who have first purchased a certain Product, you will have to 1) switch the payment settings to Paid, 2) indicate which Products grant access to that page, and 3) switch the page visibility settings to "Members who own product(s).”

To give users more insight into the purpose of a space and who can see that space, Members can always see the page description and an indication whether a space is public or private in the cover photo.
