Types of Tabs

Updated over a week ago

Tabs allow you to filter and structure content within your space.
​

🔒 Permissions
​

Managing tabs of a space is reserved for administrators of the space or system administrators.
​

Default Tabs

Two default tabs are suggested in every new space:
​

1. Content Feed

This tab displays all the recent activities of the space. It shows:
​

  1. the latest published articles sorted by publication date
    ​

  2. featured articles at the top of the space if there are any
    ​

  3. the activity log (latest user's activities such as likes, comments, reshares...)
    ​

Content feed

📝 Notes
​

  • This view is similar to the Activity Homepage
    ​

  • Not what you are looking for? Keep scrolling, we have plenty of other tabs to offer
    ​

2. All Articles

All articles

The "All articles" tab is the second default tab of a space. It lists all the articles available in the space. This tab behaves like the global search but at the space level.
​


​

Other Types of Tabs

Besides the default tabs suggested, you can also create other tabs of different types.
​

1. Activity

Activity tab

This tab displays the social feed of the space, meaning:
​

  1. the activity feed of the space with a preview of each content and the related user activity (likes, comments...)
    ​

  2. featured articles at the top of the space if there are any
    ​

  3. the introduction text
    ​

  4. social boxes if you inserted any
    ​

📝 Notes
​

  • When somebody comments on an article, this article will move back up to the top of the activity feed
    ​

  • The 'content feed tab' focuses on content while the 'activity tab' focuses on social interactions
    ​

2. Smart Tab

Smart tab

A smart tab displays articles according to an automatic search rule created by the administrator and based on specific filters:
​

  • one or more mandatory tags
    ​

  • a specific type of template
    ​


​

It is also possible to choose the display mode of these articles (list or grid) as well as the sorting order:
​

2) Smart tab grid view
​

3. Link-Type Tab

Link tab

Any external secured web page (https:// format) can be displayed in full page as a tab.
​

Examples:
​

  • an embedded form from an external service (JotForm, Google Form, etc.)
    ​

  • a video, a presentation stored in an external service (YouTube, SlideShare, Prezi, etc.)
    ​

  • a database
    ​

📝 Notes
​

For YouTube, for example, you have to use the URL provided for embedding (integration) (example: https://www.youtube.com/embed/8sY9yL1e7nM). It can generally be found in the share options of this kind of service.
​
