Navigating boards, postings, and replies
Introduction
MORSL is a private, curated deal-flow and opportunity network. As a Member you can access the boards you have been invited to, browse postings shared by other members, publish your own opportunity postings, and reply to postings that interest you. This guide walks through every step in plain language.
Who this guide is for
This guide is written exclusively for Members. The Member role gives you access to board content. You cannot modify board settings, create incentives, or access administrative pages — those capabilities belong to the Community Administrator role.
What you can do as a Member
- View and switch between the boards you belong to
- Search and filter postings within a board
- Read the full detail of any posting, including incentive information
- Create a new posting on any board you are a member of
- Reply to any posting on your boards
- Track replies on postings you have authored
- Update your profile, appearance preferences, and account settings
Getting Around
2.1 The Top Bar
A slim navigation bar sits at the very top of every MORSL page. It contains four elements:
| Element | What it does |
|---|---|
| MORSL logo | Clicking the logo always returns you to your Member home page (My Boards). |
| Search box | Searches postings by title and body text within the board you are currently viewing. Press Enter to run the search. Clear the box and press Enter to see all postings again. |
| Theme buttons | Three small icons let you switch between Light, Dark, and System (follow your operating system) display modes. Your preference is saved automatically. |
| Your name / avatar | Opens a dropdown menu with links to your profile, all boards, appearance settings, and sign-out. |
2.2 The Member Home Page
After signing in, MORSL takes you to the Member Home page at /public/member_home.php. This page is divided into two panels:
The sidebar lists every board you have been added to as a Member. Boards are sorted by most-recent activity by default. A small blue dot appears next to any board that has received new postings since you last visited it.
Clicking any board in the sidebar loads that board's postings in the right panel. The board name, posting count, and member count appear in the header at the top of the panel.
Working with Boards
3.1 Viewing Your Boards
Your boards are listed in the left sidebar on the Member Home page. Each board entry shows:
- The board name
- The total number of postings on that board
- How long ago the most recent posting was made (e.g. "2h ago", "Apr 9")
- A blue activity dot if there are new postings since your last visit
3.2 Switching Between Boards
Click any board name in the sidebar to load its postings in the right panel. The currently active board is highlighted in blue-green. The board you select remains active until you choose another.
3.3 Sorting Your Board List
A sort dropdown at the top of the sidebar controls the order in which boards appear. The sort takes effect immediately without a page reload.
| Sort option | Behaviour |
|---|---|
| Recent activity (default) | Boards with the newest postings appear first. |
| Name A–Z | Boards are sorted alphabetically by name. |
| Most posts | Boards with the highest total number of postings appear first. |
Browsing and Filtering Postings
4.1 The Posting Feed
When you select a board, its postings appear as cards in the right panel, sorted newest first. Each card shows:
- A colour-coded member avatar with initials
- The posting title (click to open the full detail)
- A two-line preview of the posting body text
- The author name (or "You" for your own posts) and relative timestamp
- The reply count, if any replies have been submitted
- A "Your post" badge on postings you authored
- A gold star incentive chip if the board administrator has attached an incentive to the posting
- A Reply button (or View button for your own postings) on the right side of the card
4.2 Visual Indicators on Posting Cards
| Visual signal | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Blue left border | This is a posting you created. |
| Amber left border + gold star chip | This posting has an incentive attached by the community administrator. |
| Both borders present | Amber takes precedence — the posting is yours and has an incentive. |
| "Your post" badge | Confirms you are the author of this posting. |
| Reply count | Number of replies submitted by board members. |
4.3 Filter Pills
Four filter pills sit in the top-right area of the board header. Clicking a pill filters the posting feed immediately.
| Filter | What it shows |
|---|---|
| All (default) | Every posting on the board, newest first. |
| My posts | Only the postings you have created on this board. |
| With incentive | Postings that have an incentive attached by the administrator. |
| Unanswered | Postings that have received zero replies so far. |
Active filters are highlighted in navy blue. Click the same pill again, or click "All", to clear the filter. If you have an active search query and change the filter, the search is preserved.
4.4 Searching Postings
Use the search box in the left sidebar (under the board list) to search postings on the currently active board. You can also use the search box in the top navigation bar.
Viewing a Posting
5.1 Opening a Posting
Click the posting title or the Reply / View button on any posting card to open the full posting detail page. The detail page shows the complete content of the posting, not just the preview excerpt.
5.2 What You See on the Detail Page
The detail page is split into two columns:
- Board badge — the name of the board this posting belongs to
- Posting title in large heading text
- Author initials, posting date and time, and a reference number (e.g. POST-42)
- Full rich-text posting body
- Tags row — board name and incentive title if one is present
- Incentive card — if the community administrator has attached an incentive (see 5.3 below)
- View your matches button — only visible if you are the author of the posting
- Deal snapshot — a quick-reference panel showing board name, post date, incentive details, and author
- Action buttons — only the posting author sees Review matches and Back to board buttons
5.3 Reading an Incentive
If the community administrator has linked an incentive to a posting, a yellow-tinted incentive card appears in the main column below the posting body. The card is read-only for members and displays:
- The incentive title (e.g. "2% referral fee")
- Full incentive details in rich text
- Valid From and Valid To dates, if specified
5.4 Match Stats (Posting Authors Only)
If you are the author of a posting and MORSL's AI matching service found matching members, a teal banner appears near the top of the posting showing the number of members matched, SMS notifications sent, and replies received. Click "View your matches" to see the full list of matched members.
Creating a Posting
6.1 Starting a New Posting
You can start a new posting in two ways:
- Click the "New posting" button in the top-right corner of the board header (the blue button with a plus icon).
- Click "Create a posting" in the empty feed message when no postings exist on a board yet.
Both methods open the New Posting form. The form is always scoped to the board you are currently viewing — you cannot change the destination board from within the form.
6.2 Completing the New Posting Form
The New Posting form has two required fields and one rich text editor:
Enter a brief, descriptive title for your opportunity. Titles are limited to 120 characters. A good title clearly communicates the nature of the opportunity at a glance.
Use the rich text editor to describe your opportunity in detail. The editor supports bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, ordered lists, bullet lists, and hyperlinks. You must enter at least some text — an empty body is not accepted.
6.3 Submitting the Posting
To discard the posting without saving, click "Cancel". You are returned to the board feed.
6.4 What Happens After You Publish
When you publish a posting, MORSL automatically:
- Saves your posting to the board
- Sends an email notification to board members (if configured)
- Runs AI analysis to understand the nature of your opportunity
- Runs AI keyword matching to identify members whose profiles align with your posting
- Redirects you to the Match Review page if matching candidates were found, so you can decide whether to send them outreach
Searching, Viewing, and Creating Replies
7.1 Finding Postings to Reply To
There is no separate inbox for replies. To find postings that are waiting for engagement, use the filter pills in the board feed:
- Click "Unanswered" to see postings that have received no replies yet.
- The reply count on each card (e.g. "3 replies") tells you how active a conversation already is.
- Use the search box to find postings on a specific topic you want to engage with.
7.2 Opening a Posting to Reply
7.3 Writing a Reply
The reply form appears below the posting detail card on the posting view page. To submit a reply:
Reply content is plain text. Keep replies relevant to the specific opportunity in the posting. Replies are visible to all members of the board.
7.4 Viewing Replies on Your Postings
When other members reply to a posting you created, you will be notified by email (if configured). To view the replies:
The match stats banner at the top of your posting (if visible) shows aggregate reply counts from both the web platform and SMS outreach combined.

| Light | White background, dark text. Best in bright environments. |
| Dark | Dark background, light text. Easier on the eyes in low-light settings. |
