Visibility of Club posts

[I_cant_Swim_]

Hi folks. Is it possible to get posts from Open Clubs listed in the latest posts widget? If so, how? If I change Clubs settings to show content areas everywhere, I only see the first post of the thread.

I'd like to have posts from open Clubs showing normally in latest posts, unlike closed Clubs that show only for members.

A post feed will include all public posts by default. You mention you are only seeing the first post of a topic. That sounds like you are using the topic feed rather than the post feed

Hi Marc. No, this is what I mean:

If I set a Club to "Public" a non-member of this Club can see all posts (Opening Post + replies) in the main forum Post (or Topic) Feed. However, there is no Membership for this specific type of club and anyone can reply without being a member of the club. 

If I set a Club to "Open" only members of the Club can see all posts (Opening Post + replies) in the main forum Post/Topic Feed. There is a Membership for this specific type of club. When I set Clubs/Settings/ Show Club Content Areas to "Throughout the Community" a non-member of this Club can see newly started threads in the main forum Topic Feed, but no follow-up posts in the main forum Post feed.

I'd like to have the option to have "Open" Clubs with reply posts also visible in the main forum Post Feed, as a membership recruitment drive for the Clubs in question (so that everyone sees the activity there), while maintaining their membership lists and requirement to be a member to reply.

I hope that makes more sense.

An open club should indeed show throughout the community. Are you having issues with that? Are you running the latest release?

[I_cant_Swim_]

I think so, no updates queued

[Marc]

Please let me know the name of the club, and I can then take a look for you

Marc, thank you. Issue has resolved itself, unless you clicked a button. The issue was brought to my attention yesterday by a manager, and until this morning (8 hours ago), it didn't seem to work. But now it does. I don't really have an explanation -all the settings I changed, I then reset. But the browser, MS Edge, I see took 5 min to update a new post to the recent posts section today, despite refresh clicks and shift+F5. Open Club reply posts now appear in recent posts on the front page.

Thanks again.

Glad to hear things are now working for you 🙂
