Post Button (Post Box)

Clicking this button posts the content of your post and any attachments to the community stream or Main Stream (subject to teacher approval and/or community and student moderation settings).

  1. If your posts are moderated, clicking “Post” sends your post to your teacher’s Activity Feed for review. If your posts are not moderated, the post will appear immediately in the community in which it was posted.

  2. If the post requires moderation and is approved, it will appear in the community in which it was posted. You will receive both a message in your My Messages and an email notification when your post is live.

  3. If the post requires moderation and is disapproved, it will be sent back to the Draft Center. You will receive both a message in your My Messages and an email notification when your post is disapproved.

See the Moderation  & Draft Center articles for more information.
