Creating and editing content

You can create discussions, documents, blog posts, and status updates, as well as post images or videos and send direct messages, from your Jive Daily app.

Creating content

To create a content item:

  1. Tap Create.
  2. Select the type of content you want to create.

  3. Start typing. You can also:
    • @mention people, places, or content items
    • Insert hyperlinks
    • Add numbered or unordered lists
    • Embed images in the content
    • Format text (bold, italics or underlined)


  4. Once the content is ready, click Publish to select a particular place to publish, or you can choose to share your content with specific people.

    Alternatively, you can also want to keep the visibility of your content hidden, or you may choose to expose it to the entire community.



    Note: These publishing options appear depending on your content type. Therefore, you may not find all of these options available for each content type.
  5. Add relevant tags to your content to optimize its search. For more information about using tags, see Using tags in the Community Manager Guide.

Note: The Save As Draft option is only available for a Document or a Blog Post content type.
