Posting status update in groups

There may be times you want to limit your status update to only a specific group in your community. When you post a status update to a group, only members and people following the group see the update in their attention streams.

The status updates are displayed in Trending content tiles. If your group has an Overview page that includes the Recent Activity tile, the status update is displayed there as well.

To post a status update for a group:

  1. You can create a group update from either the News page or the group's Activity page.
    Note: Some groups do not use Activity pages.
    • Activity Page: Go to the Activity page for the group where you want the status update to display.
    • News: Under All Activity, click Change next to your community name, and then select or type the name of the group from the group picker.
  2. Type your status update in the What's going on? box next to your avatar.
  3. Click Post.
