Setup Everyone Site¶
To be able to post to all people in an organization, you need to configure an “Everyone Site” for the user feed. You can set up a new site in SharePoint for this, but the recommended setup is to use the main publishing site in your intranet. Follow these steps to do this.
- Go to the start page of the main publishing site.
- Go to Site Settings > Site Features.
- Activate the SharePoint feature “Site Feed”.
- Go to Site Contents.
- Go to the Settings of the MicroFeed list.
- Go to Permissions for this list.
- Click on Stop Inheriting Permissions.
- Change the permissions on the Visitor group from Read to Contribute.
- Configure the user feed block on the start page to use the main publishing site as the Everyone Site.
