Post Updates and News

Description:

As an administrator or event organizer, I want to be able to post updates and news on the platform so that users can stay informed about important announcements, event changes, or new features.

Acceptance Criteria:

1. Posting Updates:

   • The platform should provide a dedicated section for administrators or organizers to create and post updates or news.
   • The posting interface should allow for the inclusion of text, images, videos, and links to provide rich content.
   • Posts should have a title, body content, and an optional image or video thumbnail.

2. Categorization and Tagging:

   • Posts should be categorized by type (e.g., event updates, platform news, general announcements).
   • Organizers should have the ability to tag posts with relevant keywords to improve discoverability and organization.

3. Visibility and Targeting:

   • Administrators should be able to set visibility options for each post, such as:
     • Public (visible to all users)
     • Private (visible only to specific user groups or event attendees)
   • The platform should allow targeting of posts to specific user segments based on interests, location, or event participation.

4. Notification of New Posts:

   • Users should receive notifications when a new update or news item is posted, with options for in-app notifications, email, or push notifications.
   • Notifications should be customizable, allowing users to choose the type and frequency of updates they receive.

5. Managing Posts:

   • Administrators should be able to edit or delete posts after they have been published.
   • A history of posts should be maintained, with options to archive old or outdated content.

6. User Interaction:

   • Users should be able to like, comment on, or share posts to engage with the content.
   • The platform should provide options for users to follow specific organizers or topics to receive updates related to their interests.

7. Error Handling:

   • The platform should ensure that posts are saved correctly and provide clear error messages if any issues occur during the posting process.
   • If there is an issue with media uploads (e.g., image or video), the platform should notify the organizer and provide options to resolve the issue.

Definition of Done:

• The post creation feature is fully implemented, allowing administrators and organizers to post updates and news with rich content.
• Users can receive notifications and interact with posts through likes, comments, and shares.
• Posts are categorized, tagged, and can be targeted to specific user segments for relevant distribution.
