Creating Posts with AnnounceKit

Your guide to creating posts in AnnounceKit — start here and explore each topic in depth.

Welcome to the most important part of your AnnounceKit journey — Posts!

The Posts section enables you to:

  • Manage all of your posts in one place

  • Filter posts by label

  • View post performance stats by clicking View stats on any post

To get started, go to Posts and click "Create a new post".

Anything you create here will be distributed through AnnounceKit channels — widgets, standalone newsfeeds, boosters, and email / email digests.

The post editor is organized into five areas. Click any link below to jump to the detailed guide for that topic:

1) Post Content Editor

Use the content editor to write and format your post — add images, videos, links, labels, CTA buttons, use the AI Assistant, or start from a template.

2) User Segmentation

Send targeted announcements to specific groups of users by adding segmentation rules to your post.

3) Boosters

Highlight important announcements using modals, pop-ups, announcement bars, or email — so your users never miss key updates.

4) Extra Settings

Control publish date, labels, author, cover image, pin to top, expiry date, and more.

Setting

Description

Publish On

Choose the date and time for your post to go live. Default is the creation date, but you can schedule it for the future or set any previous date.

Labels

Use tags to categorize and organize your announcements. Add, rename, change colors, and order labels in Settings.

Author

Personalize your post by changing the author's information. Author details are displayed on both the standalone feed page and widgets.

Cover Image

Upload a cover image for your announcement. Recommended size: 1200px x 628px, 1MB max.

Save as Draft

Save your work as a draft to revisit and edit later.

Pin Post on Top

Increase post visibility by pinning it to the top of your feed and widget.

Override Post URL and Summary

Redirect your post to a specified URL when clicked, or adjust the post summary for SEO.

Expire On

Set an expiry date for your post. After this date, the post won't be visible on the feed or widgets.

5) Post Preview

Before publishing, preview how your post will look in your feed, widgets, and with boosters enabled.
