Introducing the all-new moderation panel. A place to have a 360 view of items that require your attention to keep your community healthy.
Approve new member requests. archive reported posts by other members and allow pending posts to get published. All in one panel.
What problems have been addressed?
It used to be that moderators did not have access to the moderation tools (the irony) within the admin panel due to access level. Now both admin and moderators can manage their respective groups.
The tools and settings were scattered around the admin panel which made it very hard to find.
There was no way to find pending items unless you check the admin panel or spot them in the feed.
To learn more about this feature, please check out this link.
The above items are all now resolved. New features will get improved iteratively based on your feedback. Check the new moderation panel (directly accessible from the profile dropdown) and let us know what you think and how it could get better. 🤘
Starting today, all of your page URLs, including the existing and new ones are all automatically converted to keyword-rich web addresses and optimized for SEO.
The old unfriendly URLs are all working and functional so you do not need to worry about links being broken. They all get redirected to the new friendly and SEO optimized URLs.
Getting your community page slug structure right for customers and search engines is essential and we understand how important this is to meet the needs of users and searchers.
We have done extensive research to make sure we are implementing the best practices. We hope you enjoy this new update. expect to see some improvement in your SEO score soon 😉
How does it work?
The URL gets generated based on the first 75 characters of the content. replacing spaces with dashes and supports english characters from A to Z following the unique hash ID of the post.
What about non-english content?
If a non-english character is being used, It will convert and match it to an equivalent of an english character.
What if a post gets edited?
If a post gets edited, the URL will also get updated with the new content, redirecting the old URL to the new one to make sure nothing will be broken.
Can admins manually change the slug?
Yes. admins and moderators, on any paid plan, can install the SEO boost app. It will supercharge their capabilities to edit the slug, add or edit title, description, and image meta tags of each specific post along with other options.

We love to hear how you are using Zapier integration with your tribe. So please do not hesitate to share it with us and the rest of the members.
We’ve launched a new feature for admins to better understand what’s happening behind the scene to the email notifications, firebase notifications, and Webhooks.
Since above tasks usually happen in background, previously, there was no way for admins to figure out what’s the status of these tasks. For instance, if admins hit their SendGrid credit limit, or their Firebase credentials were wrong there was no way for them to look and see the result of the communication with these services.
Now, by going to /admin/jobs in your community (while logged in as admin) You'll be able to see exactly what happened on the background, if the result was error or success, and some more details about it.
We’ve also added buttons to these logs at the right places. For instance in Webhooks app, firebase app, and Sendgrid app, we now show a “Activity Logs” button. We’ve added this button to user’s invitation page as well.
Communities like to set their tribe to follow their design and branding guidelines. To make things more flexible and easier to customize, Tribe now has class names for most of its components to make it easier to target elements and apply changes with CSS.
Customizing CSS is not specific to Tribe. Learn how to work with Chrome Dev tools and inspect element and you can fairly edit anything you want over the web and not just on Tribe.
Discussion post type now supports file, image, and video attachment, as well as subthreads. Admins can enable/disable subthreads and set the setting to show latest sub threads first or last.
Admins can set to load long subthreads as "pages" or "infinitely loads" when users scroll down.
Your tribe's members are now able to sort the home feed based on the latest activities, such as someone liked or commented on a post.
Admins can set the default feed sorting to be either on "recent post" or "latest activity" and also the length of post previews before the ("...more) link appears on the feed.
To do these settings, please go to Admin Panel > Settings > Feed
