Noticeboard

Neat and Tidy

The noticeboard is kept tidy by automatically positioning new notices in a suitable space.

When a notice is deleted or moved, the notices below will automatically shuffle up to take up the empty space. No more wasted space or overlapping notices.

You can position the notices yourself, by dragging them, if needed.

Up to Date

You can set when a Notice will appear on a noticeboard and when it will be deleted.

Add future notices now, but keep them hidden until they become needed.

Notice Dates

See What's New

Quickly view new and updated notices by clicking on the New or Updated tabs.

You can also view Urgent notices and even Future notices that are set to appear at a later date.


Noticeboard Tabs

Link to the Calendar and Planner

A Notice on a noticeboard can also appear in the Calendar and Planner.

e.g. You could have an Events Noticeboard and publish certain Calendar events to it to highlight them.

A Notice can appear in any number of Calendars, Planners and other Noticeboards. If the notice is changed in one place, it is updated in the others.

Pictures and Styles

The Notice text size, style and colour can also be set.

You can use a custom picture or texture for the Noticeboard background. A texture picture can be tiled to fill the whole Noticeboard.

Find Notices

You can assign people to a Notice and select an Activity.

These can be used when searching for Notices to narrow down what you are looking for.

e.g. find and list all the meetings you are due to attend.

Control Access

You can control which Noticeboards a user can see and write to, and who can create new Noticeboards.

Each person is assigned a Role which provides default access rights. It is very easy to override these to grant more or less rights.

You can either let a Role see all Noticeboards or specify exactly which ones they can see and which ones they can write too.

A Role can be assigned one or more Noticeboard Group and be allowed to create new Noticeboards in that group.
