To share a folder or feed, right-click it under My feeds and choose Share with team... Everyone in your team's default workspace gets it in their sidebar, with every feed you add to it later. Only Team Admins can share.
How do I share a folder or feed?
- Right-click the folder or feed under My feeds in the sidebar and choose Share with team...
- Under Colleagues, add e-mails to invite people. Leave it empty to share with the people already in your team.
- If you have rules on the folder, keep Your rules on these feeds ticked so everyone sees the same filtered news.
- Click Share, or Share and invite.
The folder moves from My feeds to your team's section in the sidebar. No team yet? Share with team... opens the team setup with that folder picked: see Set up your team on Feeder Professional.
You can also start from Team in the left sidebar. While your team has nothing shared, it lists your folders with Share... next to each, and your team's empty section in the sidebar shows Share a folder.
How do I add a new feed to a workspace?
- Click Team in the left sidebar and click the workspace.
- Open the Feeds tab and click Add.
- Choose Add feed and paste the site or feed address, or choose Add folder to make an empty shared folder.
To share with the whole team, use the default workspace, which every member joins. Not a Team Admin? You'll see Managed by your Team Admin, so ask your admin. More in Workspaces: choose what each group on your team sees.
How do I share a collection?
On the workspace's Feeds tab, click Add, then Add collection, and pick the collection. Members see it in the workspace like a feed, and posts you add to it show up for them. See Organize content with collections.
Do my Rules apply to my teammates?
Only the ones you bring along. When a Team Admin shares a folder, the share sheet offers to bring the admin's rules on it, so everyone sees the same filtered news. Those rules show on each teammate's Rules page, and only Team Admins can change them.
Your other rules that filter, star, mark as read or highlight posts change only what you see, even on a shared feed.
Rules that act outside your reader are different. A rule that posts to Slack or adds posts to a shared collection works for the whole team, and teammates can see it on their Rules page. More about Rules in Rules.
How do I copy a teammate's rule?
- Right-click the feed in the sidebar and choose Edit feed.
- Open the Rules tab. Your teammates' rules for this feed are under Rules your teammates have for this feed.
- Click Copy rule, check the new rule and save it.
The copy has the same keywords and points at your own copy of the feed. A rule set on a folder doesn't bring the folder along, so choose yours again. Only Team Admins can open Edit feed on a workspace feed. Setting up a new member? A Team Admin can make their rules for them, as described below.
How does a Team Admin set up rules for a teammate?
- Select Rules in the left sidebar, then New rule.
- Under Apply to, choose A team member and pick the teammate.
- Choose the teammate's feeds and folders, or all their feeds, add your keywords and save the rule.
These rules can filter, highlight, star or mark posts as read. The teammate sees the rule on their Rules page under Rules from your team admin, and only Team Admins can change it.
To see every rule on your team, select Team rules under Rules in the left sidebar. Pick a teammate to see only their rules, and pause, edit or delete a rule from its card.
What does a new member get?
- Everything in the workspaces they belong to, starting with the default workspace.
- Not your personal feeds, your Rules or your read and unread posts.
- To follow a feed a teammate has, click Add feed, then Team library under More.
