A post you write inside a group is normally for members only. When one of your group posts is doing well, you can share it publicly so anyone on UpTrust can read it. This is your choice to make, and only you can make it for your own posts.
Where to find it: Open your post. Click the ... menu near the top and choose Share publicly. If the post is doing well, you may also see a short prompt on the page suggesting it.
What changes and what stays the same
- The post becomes public. Anyone can read it, and it can show up in search and on your profile.
- New comments are public. Any reply added after you share becomes part of the public conversation.
- Older comments stay member-only. The replies people wrote while the post was inside the group stay visible to members only. Sharing does not expose them.
- The post stays in your group. Sharing publicly does not move it out. Members still see it in the group feed, with a note that shows where it came from.
- Votes and trust carry over. It is the same post, so the votes and trust it already earned stay attached.
You cannot undo this
Sharing a post publicly is a one-way step. Before you confirm, the dialog spells out what becomes public and what stays member-only, so you can decide with the full picture.
Want to move a quick channel message into your group feed first? See group channels. Turning a channel message into a post keeps it inside the group; sharing it publicly is a separate step you choose later.
