User Notifications

Notifications appear only to the member-types you select, and are displayed on the top of all pages. Users can dismiss them, or read the full message, and they can also view older notices from a button on their user Dashboard.

1. From the Administrator Control Panel, click on the “Users” tab and select “Notifications” from the drop down menu.
2. If you wish to add a new notification click on the “Add” button (In green) on the right side of the page.
3. You will be redirected to a ‘Create Notification” page. Enter the title of the notification in the “title” field.
4. If you wish for your notification to disappear after a certain date, uncheck the “No expiration” box. A new field will appear. Enter the desired expiration date in this field or use the calendar icon to select a day easily.
5. Next enter the description into the text editor (WYSIWYG).
6. You may choose to limit who see this notification. If you do, uncheck the member-type bow “any type”. This will reveal the member types in your site. Check the boxes to the LEFT of the member type that will be able to see this notification.
7. If you wish to edit a notification, find the notification title you wish to edit and click on the “edit” button then follow steps 3-6
8. If you wish to delete a notification, click on the “delete” button. You will be asked to confirm your action once you have clicked this button.
