Step by step

1. 1

   In Messages → Starboard, create a board and choose its destination channel.

2. 2

   Select the emoji and threshold, then source channels and exceptions.

3. 3

   Review available counting criteria, including excluded authors or reactions.

4. 4

   Choose the behaviour when reactions fall below the threshold or the source message is deleted.

5. 5

   Save, enable and test a source message with several accounts according to your criteria.

Publication lifecycle

• At the configured threshold, Spider creates a publication and tracks its source message.
• Below the threshold: keep or remove the publication according to your policy.
• Deleted source: remove or mark the publication according to configuration.

Updates and manual deletion

Tracked publications update with reactions and edits to the original when data is available. A manually removed publication is not automatically recreated. Review Publications and Activity to understand its state.
