How to Create and Manage Posts

Posts are the primary way to share content in your Campus feed. You can create text-based posts or share courses from your organization's Empath course catalog. This article covers creating, editing, deleting, and managing posts.

Prerequisites

  • Member, Moderator, or Admin role (depending on your Campus's permission settings)

Post Types

When creating a post, you can choose from the following types in the New post dialog:

Post Type Description
Text Post A free-form post with a title, rich text body, and optional image or file attachments.
Course Share a course from your organization's Empath course catalog with a title and context.

💡Coming Soon: Live Stream posts will be available in the creation dialog in a future update.

Steps

1. Create a New Post

  1. From your Campus feed, click the New Post button.
  2. The New post dialog will appear. At the top, you'll see a Post type dropdown — select either Text Post or Course.

Creating a Text Post

  1. Select Text Post from the Post type dropdown.
  2. Enter a Title for your post.
  3. Use the rich text editor to write the body of your post. You can format text and embed content.
  4. Optionally attach an image or file using the editor toolbar.
  5. Choose one of the following:
    • Click Publish to publish the post to the feed immediately.
    • Click Save as draft to save the post for later without publishing.

Creating a Course Post

  1. Select Course from the Post type dropdown.
  2. Browse or search your organization's Empath course catalog and select a course.
  3. Add a title and any additional context.
  4. Click Publish to share the course in the feed, or Save as draft to save it for later.

 📚 How it works: Course Posts pull directly from your organization's Empath course catalog. Members can click through to access the course content within Campus. This is one of the key ways Campus connects to the Empath LMS.

2. Edit a Post

You can edit posts that you authored:

  1. Find your post in the feed.
  2. Click the three-dot menu (⋮) in the top-right corner of the post.
  3. Select Edit post.
  4. Make your changes in the edit dialog.
  5. Click Update Post to save your changes.

3. Delete a Post

To delete a post:

  1. Find the post in the feed.
  2. Click the three-dot menu (⋮) in the top-right corner of the post.
  3. Select Delete post.
  4. Confirm the deletion in the dialog that appears.

ℹ️You can delete your own posts. Moderators and Admins can also delete other members' posts.

4. Manage Drafts

Draft posts are saved but not yet published. To manage your drafts:

  1. Click Drafts in the Campus sidebar.
  2. You'll see a list of all your unpublished draft posts.
  3. Click a draft to open it for editing, then publish or continue editing.

Interacting with Posts

Each post in the feed has action buttons at the bottom:

  • Like — Click to like a post. Click again to unlike. The total number of likes is displayed.
  • Comment — Click to open the comments dialog and leave a comment on the post.
  • Assign — For Course and Live Stream posts, managers can assign the content to learners.

Important Notes

  • The post types available to you depend on your role and the permission settings configured by your Campus admin.
  • Only the post author can edit a post. Moderators and Admins can delete any post.
  • Draft posts are only visible to you until they are published.
  • Course Posts require that your organization has courses in the Empath course catalog.
