COMMUNITY ACTIVITY REPORTING · Workflow idea

See the conversations that matter without reading every post one by one.

Bring selected forum activity into a tidy report that makes posts, replies, and engagement easier to scan. Use the report as a starting point for community review, preserve links to the original discussions, and let moderators decide what deserves a response or further attention.

The handoff

A structured activity report with source context, ready for a moderator or organizer to review.

Keep in mind

A report can omit context or overemphasize activity counts. Share it only with the intended team, follow community privacy expectations, and check original posts before moderating, contacting a member, or making a decision based on the summary.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Choose the forum and reporting period

Define which community space and time range should appear in each report.

Select useful activity details

Agree which discussion content and engagement signals help moderators without collecting unnecessary member information.

Set the report audience

Use an appropriate internal destination and limit access to teammates responsible for the community.
