Add a Collaborator to a Post

Overview

In BLTN, collaborators are users with editing permissions on a post. If you want a user to appear as part of the post's team (visible under "Collaborators"), you must grant them edit access—not just view access.

This guide walks you through how to add a collaborator to a post properly.

Steps to Add a Collaborator

1. Open the Post You Want to Edit

• Navigate to the post from your feed or posts list.
• Click the three dots (···) in the top-right corner of the post.
• Select Edit.

2. Go to the Sharing Section

• In the post editor, click on the Sharing tab.
• Use the search field to find the user you want to add.

3. Assign Edit Permissions

• After adding the user, change their access level from View to Edit.
• This step is essential—only users with Edit permissions will appear as collaborators on the post.

4. Save the Post

• After assigning the appropriate permissions, save or update the post.
• The user will now be listed as a collaborator.

Troubleshooting

Q: Why doesn’t a user I added show up as a collaborator? A: They likely only have View access. Edit the post, go to Sharing, and update their permission to Edit.

Tips & Best Practices

• Collaborators should always be granted edit access to appear on the post.
• Keep post permissions up to date to reflect who is actively contributing.
• If a collaborator only needs to monitor a post, leave them in View mode.
