Post( Reports) Types

Public & Private communities support two post types to distinguish formal actions from informal discussions

Post Types Overview

Structured Communication for Maximum Impact

COMMUNX distinguishes between formal and informal posts to ensure the right level of response for every interaction. Whether you need official action or community discussion, our dual-post system provides clarity and efficiency in civic engagement.

Core Post Types

Formal Posts

Action-Oriented

Official reporting with accountability tracking

Routed directly to government officials ( and Creators Dashboards ) for action ( or escalation ), assigned to specific workers, and resolved with mandatory photo proof ( With option to solve "with community help" when officials haven't joined the platform"). Includes status tracking and official response timelines.

Example: Reporting a broken streetlight - automatically routed to municipal maintenance department, assigned to a technician, and closed with photographic evidence of repair.

Informal Posts

Discussion-Focused

Community-driven conversations and peer support

Designed for community brainstorming, local updates, questions, and peer-to-peer support without official routing. Encourages community engagement and knowledge sharing.

Example: Discussing ideas for neighborhood beautification - community members share suggestions, vote on proposals, and organize volunteer efforts without government involvement.

When to Use Each Post Type

Use Formal Posts For

  • Infrastructure issues (potholes, broken streetlights)
  • Public safety concerns and emergency repairs
  • Sanitation and waste management problems
  • Official complaints requiring government action
  • Issues needing documented resolution with proof

Use Informal Posts For

  • Community event planning and coordination
  • Local news sharing and neighborhood updates
  • Ideas and suggestions for community improvement
  • Questions and advice seeking from neighbors
  • General discussions and community bonding

Why Dual Post Types Work

Clear Accountability

Formal posts ensure official responsibility and documented resolution for critical issues

Community Empowerment

Informal posts foster organic discussions and peer-to-peer support within the community

Efficient Resource Use

Separating action items from discussions optimizes government response and community engagement
