Getting started with Zoho CommunitySpaces

Welcome to Zoho CommunitySpaces, your go-to platform for building and engaging with your community. Whether you're here to join existing communities or create one of your own, Zoho CommunitySpaces provides all the necessary tools to foster meaningful connections and share valuable content.

Overview

Zoho CommunitySpaces is a versatile online platform designed to join, engage, and grow your community. It allows you to share ideas, have real-time discussions, and work together with like-minded individuals.

If you're wondering what to do after creating your community, this will help you!
Let's explore a few basic components of our platform to help you communicate and engage with others.

 

Let us start with a post

  1. In your account, go to the Feeds page from the left-side menu.



  2. Click the rich text editor and write a post.



    (You can share events, ideas, and announcements, conversations, polls, forums, broadcast, or post a question to keep everyone informed and engaged.)



  3. After writing your post, select whether you want to share the post with a specific person or in a space.



  4. Click Share to publish the post.


 

Engage in a post with reactions, comments, and replies
  1. If you enjoy a post, you can click the thumbs-up icon. You also have the option to choose from five other emojis.



  2. Tap on the comment box under the post, write your thoughts, and click Post.
  3. If you want someone’s attention to your post or comment, use @mention with their name to notify them about your activity. 

Components of a post

  1. Post views count
    Click the eye icon() on your published post to know how many overall and unique views your post has. You can also view the list of viewers.
  2. Follow community members
    When you like someone’s posts and want to be notified of their new posts, hover over their name and click Follow.



  3. Add tasks from the post
    If any post gives you an idea or seems like a valuable work item for you, click the tick icon() in the bottom-right corner to create a task out of the post.

 

Join a space

What is a space?
A space in Zoho CommunitySpaces is a dedicated place where members can closely discuss specific topics, have a discussion, or share interests. Spaces facilitate focused conversations and also have built-in tools for file and knowledge-sharing, making them vital for community building.

How to join a space

  1. Select Spaces from the left-side menu bar.



  2. Click Public Spaces in the extended menu to view and join in available spaces.



  3. Click Discover Spaces to explore spaces based on categories like most active, most popular, and recently created.
  4. Click Join to join a open group, else you have to request to join for private spaces.
