🧼 TL;DR:
You can allow members to post when creating a subspace
If left unchecked, it defaults to reply/reactions only
You can change this anytime in Space Settings
What’s the Default Behavior?
When you create a subspace, there’s an option:
“Allow any member to message in this subspace”
✅ Checked = Anyone in the subspace can post
❌ Unchecked = Only admins/mods can post; others can reply or react
If you leave this box unchecked, the subspace becomes reply/reactions only by default.
How to Let Members Post (After Creation)
Go to the subspace
Click the three dots (⋯) in the top right
Select “Space Settings”
Choose the subspace you want to edit
Check the box:
“Allow any member to message in this subspace”Click Save Changes
Changes apply immediately.
When to Turn This On
Enable posting when the subspace is meant for open team participation, like:
Shift coverage or swaps
Discussions
Feedback or idea boards
💡 Pro Tip:
Want to keep the subspace clean? Leave posting off and use it for announcements only—replies and reactions still work great for feedback.
