​
Converting Posts

​
Make Private Post Public

  1. Edit the announcement
  2. Toggle off Private post
  3. Update and publish
  4. Now visible to everyone

​
Make Public Post Private

  1. Edit the announcement
  2. Toggle on Private post
  3. Update
  4. Removed from public view
Converting public to private doesn’t remove it from users who already saw it. Plan visibility from the start.
