Fix: Cannot See Your Own Posts in Viva Engage Home Feed
Question details
The user is unable to find their published posts in the Viva Engage Home feed and is looking for a way to view their own content, as well as how to sort the feed chronologically.
- Product
- Viva Engage
- Device & OS
- not provided
- Scenario
- Attempting to view recently published posts in the main feed and trying to sort conversations by date.
- Observed behavior
- Published posts appear on the user profile but are missing from the Home feed, and there is no option available to sort the Home feed chronologically.
Ensure you are logged into the correct Viva Engage account and have successfully published your post to a community or your personal storyline.
Switch to the All Conversations View
Since the default Home feed prioritizes algorithmically relevant content, switching your view will help you see your own recent posts alongside a broader set of community content.
The Viva Engage Home feed is designed by Microsoft to show posts from communities and users you follow, based on an engagement algorithm. It does not automatically display every post you create. To bypass this algorithmic filter and see your own posts, you need to change your feed view.
Launch Viva Engage via your web browser or by opening the Viva Engage app within Microsoft Teams.
Locate the feed filter options at the top or upper-left side of your main dashboard.
Click on 'All Conversations' to switch away from the default 'Home' feed. This view displays a much broader set of posts, ensuring your own newly published content is visible.
Submit Feedback for Chronological Sorting
If having a chronological feed is essential for your daily workflow, you can request this feature directly through Microsoft's official channels.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do my Viva Engage posts only show up on my profile?
The Home feed in Viva Engage uses an engagement algorithm that highlights trending content from communities you follow and people you interact with. It does not automatically display every post you create to you, as your profile serves as the complete, chronological record of your own activity.
Can I force the Viva Engage Home feed to sort by date?
No, Viva Engage does not currently offer a built-in feature to sort the Home feed chronologically. The feed is entirely algorithm-driven to prioritize relevant conversations over strict timeline order.
Will my coworkers see my posts in their Home feed?
Yes. While you might not see your own post in your Home feed, coworkers who follow you or are members of the community where you posted may see it in their Home feed based on relevance, network proximity, and overall engagement levels.
