EOLA Today

Posts

Writing updates for your followers, with mentions, photos and an event, and who sees them.

Posts are short updates from your place or your local: a new special, tonight’s set times, a patio that just opened. They go to everyone who follows you.

Writing a post

On the web, open your place or local on Manage; the box is at the top. In the business app, open the Posts tab.

  1. Type in What’s new at …? Type @ to mention a place, event or local.
  2. To mention someone, type @ and the start of their name, then pick them from the list. The mention links to their page.
  3. Tap Add photos for up to four.
  4. On the web, you can pick an event under Linked event: one of yours from the last 30 days or coming up.
  5. Tap Post.

On the web, each post has Edit and Delete. Edited posts say Edited. In the app, tap the bin on a post to delete it.

Who sees your posts

  • Everyone who follows you, in their Updates and on their homepage.
  • Anyone on your page: a place’s latest post sits beside its details, and a local’s posts are on its page.
  • Everyone browsing Updates before they follow anyone.
  • People can like a post with the heart. You’ll see the count on each post. There are no comments.

Hidden by EOLA

If a post breaks the rules, EOLA can hide it. You’ll see Hidden by EOLA on it with the reason. It doesn’t show on your page or in anyone’s feed. You can delete it and post again.
