Sharing content to other pages

A news post, event, media item — or a whole content source — can appear on more than one page, including other schools' pages. Sharing to a page you don't administer sends a request its admin must approve.

Content Targets

Every post and content source has a Content Targets section with two parts:

• Primary Location — the page you're on, where the content lives by default.
• Secondary Pages — any other pages the content should also appear on. Click Add Secondary Pages, select the pages, and save.

A page you administer shows the content immediately. A page you don't administer shows "Pending approval by organization admin" until its admin approves.

When sharing applies

Content already flows down the hierarchy automatically — a school page shows its district's news without any sharing. Sharing covers the cross-branch cases the hierarchy doesn't: an event one school wants on a sibling school's page, a booster or PTA announcement on the school it supports, or a calendar or files source several unrelated pages should all display.

What can be shared

• An individual item — one news post, event, or media item.
• A whole content source — a connected feed (RSS, Facebook, ParentSquare) or a files or calendar source, so everything it pulls in appears on the target pages too.

Both use the same Content Targets editor.

Sharing a post or source

1. Open the post in the editor, or open the source from the source list.
2. In Content Targets, click Add Secondary Pages (or Edit Secondary Pages).
3. Select every page where the content should also appear and save.
4. Pages you administer appear immediately; pages you don't administer show a pending marker until their admin approves.

To stop sharing, reopen the editor and remove the page from Secondary Pages.

Approving content shared to your page

Requests wait on your Dashboard, in the Content Approval Requests widget. Each shows the Title, Target Page (yours), Origin Page, Initiator, and Created date. For each request:

• Approve (checkmark) — the content appears on your page.
• Always Approve (double-checkmark) — approves this request and auto-approves future shares from that page (see below).
• Reject (✕) — opens an optional "Reason for rejection" box; click Submit to decline.

An Items / Sources toggle reviews shared items and shared sources separately. Nothing posts to your page until you approve it.

Auto-approvals

Always Approve creates a standing rule for one source page → your page pair: from then on, anything that source page shares to your page is approved automatically. Appropriate for a page you always trust to cross-post to yours.

Rules are listed under View Auto-Approvals (the Auto Approval Management window), each row showing the Target Page and Source Page with a Delete button. Rules are usually created by clicking Always Approve on a request, but a page admin can also set them up ahead of time: in the admin sidebar, open Auto Approvals and click Add New to pick the pages to trust. Deleting a rule returns that page's future shares to manual approval.

FAQ

• A post is only on one page — how do I get it on others? Open it, go to Content Targets, add the pages under Secondary Pages. Pages you manage appear right away; others need their admin to approve.
• Can a post appear on another school's page? Yes — add their page as a Secondary Page. It becomes a request their admin approves before it shows.
• Someone shared a post to my page and I don't want it. On your Dashboard, find Content Approval Requests and Reject it.
• The same page's posts keep coming up for approval. Use Always Approve on one request to auto-approve future shares; manage it under View Auto-Approvals.
• Can a whole feed be shared, not just one post? Yes — share the content source itself and everything it pulls in appears on the target pages.
• Why does a shared post show "pending"? It was shared to a page you don't administer and is waiting for that page's admin to approve it.
