The Direct Upload feature allows users to contribute content directly to your Social Wall by scanning a QR code or clicking a link—without needing to post on social media. In this article, we’ll guide you through activating the QR code or link that enables users to post directly to your Social Wall.


Creating A User Posts Connection

Before activating the QR code, you must first set up a User Posts Connection in your dashboard.

For step-by-step guidance on how to set up and manage a User Posts Connection, please refer to the Adding a User Posts Connection article.







Activating the QR Code on your Social Wall

To enable visitors to directly upload their posts, you need to make the QR code visible on your Social Wall.

  1. Begin by navigating to the Display template you’re using for your Social Wall and click on the more icon (...) and then Edit. If you prefer to start fresh, you can create a new display by selecting Create a Display.

2. In the main Display menu, activate the User Posts toggle. Make sure to save your changes by clicking Publish Changes before moving on to the next step.

3. In the top menu bar, switch to the Share menu. To begin creating your Social Wall with a User Posts Uploader, click New Social Wall.

4. A popup window will appear, allowing you to configure your Social Wall. Start by giving your Wall a name.

5. Select the Language for your Social Wall. This will determine the language displayed in the link on your Social Wall and in the uploader form that appears when users scan the QR code or click the link.

6. Next, choose the User Post Connection you want to use. To finish, click Save.

💡To explore all configuration options (e.g. Content filters) for your Social Wall, visit the Publishing a Display section in the Help Center.

5. Your Social Wall is now ready to be shared. When copying the URL or embed code, ensure you’ve selected the correct wall—indicated by a checkmark.
