I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'alternative' is the definition.
(I know that soft option is a type of alternative)

'post info to ground?' is the wordplay.
'ground?' indicates an anagram ('grind' the letters into a new form).
'post'+'info'+'to'='postinfoto'
'postinfoto' anagrammed gives 'SOFT OPTION'.

'here's an easier' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for soft option that I've seen before include "Undemanding choice" , "Easy way out" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
