Step-by-Step Walkthrough

Step 1 - Log in to the site

Find the “Login” button in the upper right-hand corner of the site’s homepage or login directly from the site’s login screen.

Step 2 - Go to your dashboard

If you are not taken to your dashboard after logging in, click your name and then "My Dashboard" in the upper right-hand corner of the site.

Step 3 - Locate Post Options

From the dashboard, select "Site Options" and then "Post Options" in the left-hand navigation bar.  You will see a drop-down with four different options to choose from; Access, Approval, Reviews, and Types.

Step 4 - Manage Post Access

Turn on the ability to restrict access to posts so they are only viewable by portal attendees. Add a custom message for viewers when they attempt to view a post they do not have access to. 

Note:  Restricting access to content or events will be managed at the time the post is added to the site.  

Step 5 - Manage Post Approval

Turn post approval on to require posts from certain booths or catalogs to be approved by a site administrator before they go live on the site.

Step 6 - Manage Post Reviews

Turn on the ability to review content or event posts for the site or for specific booths or catalogs.
