"How To" series: Difference between group's "Feed" vs. "Discussions" posts
This is a technical type of a thread in this group.
Please, pay attention to the main site’s prompt “Share what’s on your mind…“:
1. If you are on the home page, you are posting into the c “Feed’- will become visible directly from the main page.
2. If you “loaded” a particular group, you will post your “Share what’s on you mind…” into the main “Feed” of that particular group only. That means that you are JUST sharing something of interest to you and something that you want to draw the attention of others.
3. IF the goal of your “Sharing…” post is to seek/prompt for a discussion (such as when you want “some answers” ), you need to be at the “Discussion” tab of the particular group and rather click the “New Discussion” BUTTON, thus creating a forum’s thread, dedicated to your post.
(Importantly , please (!!!), don’t be bashful about starting the discussion threads, as oppose to just “sharing” – there is no “expert” who has nothing to learn about!)NOTE: In either of the above scenarios for your post, users will always be able to comment on your “sharing”.

Just to note, while our site is in it’s beta version at the moment, posts in the particular group are still appearing in the main site’s public “Feed”. However, as the site’s content grows, the ready to launch feature “Relevant to me” will be turned on and then every user will only see the “Feed” that is completely personalized, per YOUR specification – by default private.
NOTE: However, any and all posts and comments within the groups that are already set to “Private“, will be only visible to the members of such groups and ONLY THEN they will appear in the site’s main “feed” and ONLY if your are logged on.
