Automated Padlet Wall Moderation Alerts

Every afternoon, WebRun opens your class Padlet walls, checks new posts since the last run for reported or flagged content, saves a snapshot of the day's wall to Google Drive, and texts your own phone through Twilio if anything needs your review.

In short

How do I moderate my class Padlet walls without checking constantly?

WebRun checks your class Padlet walls every afternoon for new posts that are reported or flagged, saves a snapshot of the full wall to Google Drive, and texts your own phone through Twilio only when something needs review, so moderation happens without you refreshing every wall by hand.

  • Flagged posts get a same-day alert instead of going unnoticed
  • Every wall is archived automatically for your records
  • Quiet days generate zero unnecessary texts

Built for classroom teachers · school digital citizenship leads · after-school program staff · college discussion facilitators

Questions, answered

Will it delete or hide a flagged post?

No. It only alerts you to review it. Removing or moderating a post on Padlet is always your own action.

Does it text me every day even if nothing's wrong?

No. The text only goes out on days with a flagged or reported post, so quiet days generate no alert at all.

Does it read posts from every wall I have?

Only the class walls you connect it to, so personal or unrelated boards are never checked.

Put this on autopilot.
