Topics

■

Topics allow you to categorize content. Similar to hashtags on social media, you can cadd topics to your content and feed posts. then users will be able to click into or follow that topic to see relevant content tagged with the same topic across the intranet. Topics are also searchable in the Manage > Topics menu. It is up to the App manager to manage topics on a recurring basis to ensure the list isn't getting overpopulated with non-productive topics.

Users can add topics to content and feed posts to group the same type of content together. Simpplr's current topic selection only supports English. As of the 24.02 release, topics are searchable in the global search bar.

Manage topics

As the App manager, you can see all the topics on the Manage > Topics page.

You can click Add topic to add new ones and click on the drop-down arrow next to the existing topic to follow/edit/delete/merge that topic. Bulk upload topics via CSV by choosing Bulk upload. You can use the sample CSV provided at the bottom of this article. Simply ensure the filed value in column A, row 1, is 'name', then ad any topics you'd like to the fields in column A.

You can also bulk delete them by selecting more than one, then choosing Delete from the bulk action dropdown. 

Duplicate topics will be added to the list if users create them. However, when clicking into the topic or attaching it to content, it will be recognized the same as the existing topic. For example, if one user enters "401K" as a topic, then later another user enters "401 K", Simpplr will recognize this as a duplicate entry and only show content tagged with the original input topic, since "401K" already exists.

Add topics to content

Users and managers can add topics to content in the content creation flow. You can search through all topics in the topics list. 

Note:

The maximum number of topics you can add to any one piece of content is 100.

Follow topics

Users can follow topics as well. By following a topic, you'll ensure that any content tagged with that topic that you have visibility into will be sent to your feed. To follow a topic, simply click the topic from the content you're viewing, then click Follow.
