How do I manage sections in News?

Overview

The sections are the central organizational unit of the News application. Each section groups publications and controls who can publish and who can read.

Create a section

From News you can manage and configure sections:

Each section is configured with:

  • Name and description

  • Logo

  • Contributors : communities or specific members allowed to publish in this section

  • Audience : communities with read access

  • Visibility : displayed on the main feed ("Featured") or accessible only from the section

Edit a section

From News, manage your sections, click on an existing section to:

  • Edit its name, description, image

  • Change the contributors or the audience

  • Change visibility on the main feed

Delete a section

Deleting a section is permanent. However, publications can be transferred to another existing section.

Alert frequency

The administrator can configure the alert frequency per section, which determines how often members receive notifications for new publications in this section.

Display on TV screens

Sections can also be displayed on Steeple TV screens.
