Updated October 1, 2026

Introduction

Once you start building your audience on Orbi, posts are a great way to stay connected and keep your community engaged. You can share updates, announcements, and important information directly with your students. This is a short overview of how to post from Admin.

Step 1: Go to Posts

Open Admin and select Posts in the sidebar. Click New post.

Step 2: Choose where to post

Choose one of:

  • Your organization page: for general info from your organization
  • An event page: for posts about a specific event
  • A membership page: for posts about a specific membership

If you choose an event or a membership, search for and select it.

You can also post directly from the Posts tab on your organization page, an event or a membership in Admin.

Step 3: Write your message

Write your post and, if you like, click Upload images to add photos.

Step 4: Choose who gets notified

Use the Notifications setting to choose whether to send a push notification, for example to followers, attendees or active members. Only people with the Orbi app installed receive it.

Step 5: Publish your post

Click Post. When scheduling is available, you can choose Publish now, or Schedule post to pick a time within the next two weeks.

Step 6: Manage your posts

All your posts are listed in the Posts section. Use the filters to find posts by where they were posted or by status, such as Published or Scheduled.
