Overview

The Fan Wall feature is an easy way to increase user engagement with an app. This feature allows users to comment, ask questions, and discuss what they love about your business or service.

You can use the Fan Wall Feature to create an in-app forum for users to communicate and share ideas.For example, a school app can use the Fan Wall for the (Parent-Teacher Association) PTA to discuss school events and issues.

Also, the Fan Wall Feature can be used to accumulate positive feedback with a Reviews page. For example, users can share their favorite dishes on the menu in your restaurant app.

The Fan Wall feature is great for these industries:

• Events

• Bands & Musical Artists

• Restaurants

Customizing the Fan Wall Content

Having navigated to Create -> Build -> <Name_of_the_Fan_Wall_Feature> -> Content, you can rename the feature and manage posts.

1. Under Screen Info, change your Screen/Feature Name or leave as-is. This is the name that will appear in the app's feature menu (e.g. "Reviews" as opposed to "Fan Wall").

2. Under Posts, view and delete comments.

Note: When you first set this feature up under the Posts Section you will see a message 'Nothing Found'. This is expected as no app user has posted yet.

3. Click SAVE at the top right when you are done.
