Features in posts
You can add videos to a post. The maximum length per video is 10 minutes and you can upload up to 5 videos per post.
Select who can see the post: members only, members and guardians, or guardians and adult members only. In this case, adult members are all members who not have guardians in the group.
Comments in posts
The comment field is switched on by default. You can switch it off by selecting the down arrow in the post and unchecking 'Allow comments'. If someone has already commented, the comment will still be visible to the whole group if you switch off the field, and it will say 'Comments disabled" below. You can change this back to the way you disabled them.
Edit or delete posts
If you want to delete or edit a post, simply select the down arrow in the top right corner of the post. All admins with access to edit posts will be able to do this for all posts and comments even if they did not create the post or comment themselves.
Can't create a post
You must be an admin in the group to create a post. If you are an admin but still can't create posts, it means that your admin role does not include post creation rights.
Then you need to check which admin role you've and what accesses it includes.
