SprintFeed: Feed, Jobs and Safety

Create posts, job ads and safety alerts, target them by location, schedule them, and require acknowledgement.

These three areas share one post format: rich text, images, video, PDFs, reactions and optional acknowledgement quizzes. Each has its own page on the web and its own screen in the app.

Jobs and safety alerts always have their own pages. Admins can also show them in the main Feed with Show jobs in Feed and Show safety alerts in Feed.

Create a post, job or safety alert

Anyone signed in on the web sees the composer on all three pages.

  1. Open Feed, Jobs or Safety.

  2. Write the content. For a job, fill in Title and Location first.

  3. On Feed, choose a Category. Jobs and Safety set theirs automatically.

  4. Set Visible to (leave empty for everyone), then any schedule, priority, lockout and question settings below.

  5. Click Post, Post a job or Post a safety alert. If Go live is in the future, the button reads Schedule.

Only PDFs can be attached on these three pages. Add images and video with Insert image, Add video, Media library, or by pasting a YouTube or Vimeo link.

Who sees a post

Visible to targets posts by location only. Leave it empty for all locations, or pick one or more sites. There's no option to target a specific entity or named people.

On Jobs, the All locations filter uses the job's Visible to audience, not its Location display text.

What it does

Go live

Publish from / Hide after

Settings, Categories

Default window for every post in the category. Post settings override it.

Admins still see scheduled and hidden posts on the web, marked Scheduled or Hidden.

Priority

Priority

What workers get

Low, no pop-up

A normal post

Medium, dismissible pop-up

A pop-up with Dismiss when using SprintFeed in a web browser. It doesn't count as an acknowledgement, and app users don't see it.

Urgent, must acknowledge

Acknowledgement is required, even if the category doesn't require it

Acknowledgements and lockout

A post needs acknowledgement when its category has Lockout after on, or its priority is Urgent. On those posts, Lockout behaviour lets you keep the category default, choose Mandatory on first login, or set a custom number of logins.

What the worker does:

  1. Opens the post, marked Required.

  2. Watches the video to the end, if Require the video to be watched before acknowledging is on. This option appears when the post has exactly one uploaded video.

  3. Answers any comprehension questions.

  4. Clicks Acknowledge that I've read this. The badge changes to Acknowledged.

Comprehension questions

Add them under Comprehension questions on any post that requires acknowledgement. Click Add question and choose a type.

Type

How it's marked

Multiple choice

Must match the correct option

True / False

Must match the set answer

Select all that apply

Must select exactly the correct set, with no partial credit

Free text (ungraded)

Any answer counts. Answers appear in Reports.

Wrong answers show Not quite, try again and the worker retries until correct. The acknowledge button unlocks once every question is passed.

Edit, delete and restore

The author, any Admin, or a Member with Can edit others can edit and delete. Use a desktop browser, since edit controls don't show on small screens.

  • Edit: click the pencil, change the fields, then Save. Jobs and alerts opened from Feed are edited on their own page.

  • Delete: click the bin icon and confirm. Use Undo on the toast, or restore later from Trash.

There are no comment threads on posts. Emoji reactions are the only replies.
