Set publication and folder

In the Publication box choose Now, Schedule or Save as draft. Also review Folder and, when shown, the destination communities. If the right folder does not exist yet, New folder creates it without leaving the editor and selects it for the notice.

Send notification to recipients is already on: “In-app and email notification based on each user’s preferences”. The notification goes out when the notice is published: right away, at the scheduled time or when you publish the draft. People who muted the folder don’t receive it. Switch it off for a correction or content that doesn’t deserve a notification.

Write the content

Fill in TITLE, the optional subtitle and Description (optional), the full text. For a link select a word and use Link in the text toolbar (Insert Link opens); a pasted address becomes a link on its own and followers can tap it.

In Content type you can also choose PDF (“Leaflet or document”) and use Upload the PDF to publish the Sunday leaflet or a flyer: followers open it with Open or save it with Download. Check the result in Folder preview or with Notice preview.

To put the PDF of a Bulletin issue on the board you don’t need a manual notice: when you publish the issue you can choose Notice on the board with the PDF.

See who is praying with you

Under each notice, in the app followers find “How did this speak to you?” with Praying with you and Thank you: “No comments or names: just a sign for the person who shared this notice.”. Each person can leave one sign and remove it by tapping it again.

In Noticeboard the Reactions box counts the signs of the last 7 days; with Believer view you see how many each notice has. Group notices have no reactions.

The detail page lets you recheck content, status and folder.

You need Manage noticeboard access for the selected scope.

The notice is in the wrong folder

Open it for editing, choose the correct folder and save.

Followers didn’t receive the notification
