Move Feed Items from One Public Group Feed to Another

In Aura, the Move option on feed item dropdown menus offers a way to relocate feed items from one public group feed to another. Use Move to improve an item’s visibility or to place it in a more relevant context. For example, if a user posts a Sales poll in a Marketing feed by mistake, the poll can easily be moved to the right location. System Administrators, Community Managers, and Chatter Moderators can move posts, polls, and questions.

User Permissions Needed
To move feed items from one public group feed to another
  • Is a System Administrator OR has the permission
  • Moderate Experience Cloud Site Feeds
  • AND is a member of the Experience Cloud site
Note
Note You can’t move feed items into or out of public, broadcast-only groups.

When you move an item:

  • Mentions are preserved.
  • Announcements become announcements in the target group.
  • Things that are included in or attached to the feed item stay included or attached.

    For example, moved items bring their answers, comments, replies, topics, bookmarks, attachments, and other related entities with them. If an answer is marked as best, that status is preserved.

Note
Note To move a post that’s pinned, unpin it first.
  1. Open the dropdown menu on the feed item to be moved, and select Move.
  2. In the Move Feed Item to Another Public Group dialog, search for the group to move the item to.
  3. In the search results, select the target group, and then click Move.

The item, along with all of its related entities, is removed from the first public group and placed in the second.

Users receive notifications about the moved feed item according to their preferences. So, assuming people have opted in to the related notification setting:

  • People who follow the target group are notified.
  • When the person who moved the feed item is also a follower of the target group, they’re notified.
  • People who are mentioned in the moved feed item are notified about the mention.
  • The moved item’s author is not notified. The author isn’t notified because, no matter their notification settings, a feed item’s author isn’t notified about their post actions.
