# Add and manage content

Employees can [create folders](https://help.theemployeeapp.com/create-folder?hsLang=en) within a folder only if the admin grants them edit access to that folder. This access allows them to share important updates, announcements, ensuring everyone stays informed.

Employees with edit access to folders are called Content Publishers (CP). They can [add](https://help.theemployeeapp.com/add-and-manage-content-1#add-content) and [manage content](https://help.theemployeeapp.com/add-and-manage-content-1#manage-content) only in the folders where they have permission.

### **Add content**

Navigate to **Explore** on the left pane.

1. Click the home folder and navigate to the folder where you have edit access.
2. Click **Add** at the top right and select **Add Content**.
3. Type the content title.
4. Click the drop-down to select groups, allowing their members to view the content.

**📒Notes:**

- Content publishers can view the groups for which admins have granted them permissions.
- The content is made visible to employees only through the group. Individual employee permissions are not allowed.

  5.   In the *Caption* field, type @ to tag employees and # to make the post searchable in the newsfeed.

**📒Note:** You can tag a maximum of ten employees and add ten hashtags.

**💡Tip:** Admins and employees can click the hashtag to view all associated content in a newsfeed. React, comment, or share (if the share option is enabled) posts directly from that page without opening each post separately. This makes it easier to find and interact with hashtag content. [Learn how to use hashtags](https://help.theemployeeapp.com/reactions-to-the-content?hsLang=en#tag).

- A file
