Post sharing

Post sharing settings

This setting allows you to control where a post can be shared to based on the post origin.

There are five possible targets that a post can be shared to:

My feed - The post can be shared to my feed. This option will enable "Share to my timeline" menu when user clicks share button. Public community - The post can be shared to any public community. This option will enable "Share to group" menu when user clicks share button.

Private community - The post can be shared to any private community. This option will enable "Share to group" menu when user clicks share button.

External - The post can be shared externally. This option will enable "More options" menu when user clicks share button.

Origin - The post can be shared within the community feed that it was created. If the post was created in either public or private community, this option will enable "Share to group" menu when user clicks share button.

There are four possible origins:

My feed post - Posts that were created on my feed. By default, possible sharing targets are My feed, Public community, and Private community.

User feed post - Posts that were created on any other users' feed. By default, possible sharing targets are My feed, Public community, and Private community.

Public community feed post - Posts that were created on any public community. By default, possible sharing targets are My feed, Public community, and Private community.
