This guide explains how to view Mood Board activity and how to understand the data shown.
STEP ONE
Log in to your Zibster account and click MOOD BOARDS in the left-side menu.
This opens your Mood Boards dashboard.
STEP TWO
At the top center of the Mood Boards control panel, click ACTIVITY.

Comments
This section allows you to see a full list of the comments the individual left and the opportunity to reply to the comments. Each comment includes a link to view the image they commented on.
How Email Collection Affects Activity Tracking
Mood Board activity is tied to an email address.
-
If a visitor enters an email address when viewing or interacting with the Mood Board, all activity is tracked under that email.
-
If no email address is provided, only limited activity may be recorded.
-
Activity tracking begins once an email address is submitted.
Understanding Zero or Missing Activity
If a contact appears in the activity list but shows zero interactions, the viewer opened the Mood Board but did not take any tracked actions such as liking an image or leaving a comment.
If no activity appears at all, one of the following applies:
-
The Mood Board has not been accessed
-
The viewer did not provide an email address
-
No trackable actions were taken
