Overview

Starring is the activity feed's version of a "like" — a quick way to show appreciation for someone's learning milestone. Starred posts show a running star count, so it's easy to see which updates are getting recognition.

How to star a post

1. Open your Dashboard and find the post in the activity feed.
2. Click the Star action beneath the post.
3. The star fills in and the post's star count goes up by one.

How to remove a star

1. On a post you've already starred (the star is filled in), click Star again.
2. The star empties and the count goes back down.

Starring is a toggle — click once to add your star, click again to remove it.

Things to keep in mind

• Starring is only available where the activity feed is shown, which depends on the social feed being enabled for your platform.
• The number next to a post is the total stars from everyone, not just you.
• Your own star turns the icon solid so you can tell at a glance whether you've already starred a post.

FAQs

What does the star count mean?
It's the total number of stars a post has received from all users — a simple measure of how much recognition it's had.

Can I un-star a post?
Yes. Click Star again on a post you've starred and your star is removed.

Is a star the same as a like?
Yes. SuperPath uses a star as the feed's like control.

Who can do this

Anyone who can see the activity feed can star and un-star posts. That's all signed-in users with the dashboard and social feed enabled — Restricted users, who don't have the dashboard, are the exception.
