Restricted posting allows network admins to manage conversations that take place in key communities within their network. Once this setting is enabled, only community admins have the ability to start a thread in the community. Members can only reply and react to conversations.
To set up restricted posting
Note: To enable this setting, a community admin must grant community admin status to a network admin. The network admin then follows the procedure below.
-
In the community, select the More Options ellipses
-
Under Posting Permissions, select Restricted, and then select Save.
Note: A Restricted community remains Restricted within the Communities app in Teams, SharePoint web parts, and Outlook.
What community members see
On web and mobile, non-admins will simply not see the option to post in the community.
On the web, users will see Restricted to the right of the community name.
