Starting Conversations as a Member in the Community Module

What are ‘Conversations’?

A Conversation is any content that members create and share within the ‘Community’ module, having an audience no broader than other users from the same Gaggle. It can be anything from posting a link to an interesting article, sharing an idea for discussion, photos/videos from a recent event/conference etc. 

When creating conversations, Members can optionally share it externally on their personal social media directly, and also recommend it to the Gaggle Managers for creating an Activity.

How Can Members Start a Conversation?

Desktop

From the Members dashboard, go to ‘Community’. Here they can start a conversation by either clicking on ‘Start a Conversation’ button on top right or at the top of the content feed.

Note: If your company has not subscribed to the Community module, it will not be available in your navigation. If you are interested in having the Community module added to your Gaggle, please contact your Customer Success Manager.

If a member clicks on the ‘Start a Conversation’ button on top right a slider will appear or if they click at ‘Start a Conversation’ on the top of the content feed a box will appear. Both will give them the same options.

Once started the conversation will appear on the ’Community’ feed. If a member has chosen certain channels to post this, it will only appear in the feed of members in those channels, if the channels are private.
