It’s easy to create a post! Once you are logged in, simply go to the top of SoAmpli’s dashboard page and start typing. If in doubt, press the 'Pro Tips' button on the right side of your browser for a quick tour of the main features of the post box.
When you’re creating a post, you are simply adding content to the SoAmpli dashboard for all colleagues to see. Please note that only “amp’d” (or approved) posts can be then shared externally. Admins and amplifiers are the ones who can create amp’d posts or approve existing ones.
Add A Link
To add a link to your post, simply copy and paste it in the “Create a post” box. When you click the space bar after it, SoAmpli automatically changes it to a unique shortened link, allowing you to track the reach and interaction of your content.
Add An Image
Images are proven to hugely increase engagement on social media so why not add one to your post?
Just click on the camera icon, and an ‘Upload Your Photo’ box will open. Click on it to browse your files and attach an image.
Add A Label
The more people there are on your company’s platform, the more content there’ll be for everyone to share. But to make sure everyone can find exactly what they’re looking for quickly, we introduced labels. Labels are special tags you can attach to your posts internally to quickly show what they’re about. Labels are clickable and searchable tags that help you filter out content based on subject.
Assign A Channel
When creating a new post, you may want to think if it fits any of the channels on your company’s SoAmpli. You can assign your post to any channel you follow by clicking the 'Choose a channel' button and selecting the relevant option.
Please remember that all posts assigned to a specific channel will also appear in the main “All channels” feed, unless the channel you are selecting is private.
Add A Note
You can also add a note to your post. A note is an internal comment that won’t be seen outside the SoAmpli platform. Notes are great if you have any comments about your post that you’d like colleagues to see, but don't want it seen externally.
Edit A Post
To edit a post, click on the three little dots at the bottom of the post.
Click the 'Edit' button and you’ll be able to alter the content. Please note that once a post has been shared outside SoAmpli, any edits made within SoAmpli will not automatically change on the external post. To edit the post after it has been shared, you must do so in the respective personal social channel.
Don’t forget - click the 'Update' button after making your changes!
Advocates can only edit/delete their own posts, while amplifiers and admins can edit/delete other users’ posts as well.
Delete A Post
To delete one of your posts, click on the three little dots at the bottom of the post.
When you delete a post from SoAmpli, this will not automatically delete it from an external social media page. To do that they must be deleted through the respective website.
Advocates can only edit/delete their own posts, while amplifiers and admins can edit/delete other users’ posts.
