As the Activity Feed grows it can fill with system-generated and bulk activity. You can keep it focused using the View type options and the tag/hashtag filters — all reached from the 3-dot menu at the top-right of the Activity Feed widget, which opens the Settings panel.
Open the feed controls
- In the Activity Feed widget, click the 3-dot menu at the top-right of the widget.
- The Settings panel opens with the view and filter options.
Choose a view type
The View type section of the Settings panel decides which kinds of post the feed shows you — everything, or the feed with the automatic entries set aside, or with the entries from a bulk send set aside.
Only one view type applies at a time, so you can't combine two. Pick whichever suits what you're looking for, then switch back to All posts when you want the full picture again.
The options and what each one does are listed in Activity Feed widget (view types & post filters) (Document ID: 428).
Filter posts by tag or hashtag
The same Settings panel has a Filter posts section. Choose a Filter type — Hashtags or Post tags — then use the search box to pick the tag or hashtag to narrow the feed to. This is the quickest way in when you're researching a specific topic, campaign or follow-up.
Hashtags are typed inline in the body of a post; post tags are the account-configured labels chosen in the composer. See Post tags and hashtags (Document ID: 309).
Removing the widget
At the bottom of the Settings panel, Remove widget takes the Activity Feed off the current homepage if you no longer need it there. On a shared page it is removed for everyone who can see that page once the layout is saved.
Where the full reference lives
This page is the quick walkthrough for filtering. Adding the widget to a Home page, sizing it, and the full reference for every option in its Settings panel are documented in Activity Feed widget (view types & post filters) (Document ID: 428).
