Hi Cossette,

Just thought if this question as I sent one out last night. 

Will group leaders still be able to send broadcast messages to members of their group as we don now?

Thanks

Paula :)

  • Great question, Paula.

    In the new platform, this function is called Announcements.

    Group Leaders can make an Announcement and they sit at the top of the Discussions. This is a great way to highlight information.

    There are two ways to make them.

    1. You can click on New Announcement and type as normal.
    2. You can turn a Discussion into an Announcement. This is really nice because it means you won't have to send a message saying someone has posted something; you can announce the actual post.

    And Group Leaders can also un-announce a post, which sends it down to the regular Discussions area.

    Members can opt whether to receive an email notification, a pop-up, or neither.

    :-)
