By default there are three pages set up in your new Community site: Community, Home, and Sessions. You can create links for these pages and add them to the top header navigation for your site, and you can create as many Pages as you like.

 

To create a new page:

  1. Click the New Page button.

    • Blurb: Blurbs are sections of text that you can place anywhere on your page. They can be descriptive or informative, have several rich text formatting options, and can include links, media (such as embedded videos), emojis, and horizontal lines to break up the text. You can click the Large Editor link to open a larger editing window for easier formatting. To close the Large Editor, click anywhere outside the editor window.

    • Directory: this option will drop a directory of all members that belong to a Community group (i.e.. any GrowthZone contact that belongs to a list that has the Show Community Option in Info Hub option enabled).

      • Name: Changing this will modify the name of the section
      • Title: Adding text here will add a header at the top of the directory with the directory title.
      • Show saved users: This will toggle visibility of the Saved Contacts at the top of the directory. Members can save users by enabling the bookmark icon White Bookmark Icon to the right of their listing so it fills in: Black Bookmark Icon .
      • Show recommended users: This will toggle visibility of the Recommended Users section of the directory.
      • Filter by Interest: Any Interests that members have entered in their Community profiles  will appear here as options to select for search filters.
      • Filter by Skill: Any Skills that members have entered in their Community profiles will appear here as options to select for search filters.
      • Number: You can select how many members appear on a page of the directory by selecting a number from this dropdown menu.
    • Global Feed: This will add a feed of Community member posts to your page. Other members can search and order posts, and like, comment, and share posts; the posting member can edit their post, make the post an announcement or remove the announcement; or delete their post.
      • Edit: this will open the editor and allow the original poster to edit their post.
      • Pin a Post: this will move the post to the top of the feed regardless of the sort option selected.
      • Make an Announcement: (ask Anjye what this does, I couldn't figure it out with my limited posts and pages and groups)
    • Global Discussions: Similar to the Global Feed, this option allows members to initiate conversions with others. Other members can follow the topic and share the topic to initiate further dialogue.
    • Grid: (ask Anjye what this can be used for, it appears to create tabs for filtered content; use case?)
    • Hero: this is a banner that can appear anywhere on your page. You can use the default background image or upload your own, change the alignment of the text, and change the size of the banner; you can add a button and link it either internal (other pages or Community content) or external (websites, links, etc.) resources as well as change the button text and color.

    • Rotator: Rotators cycle through different content on your site, displaying multiple pieces in a single space and potentially increasing exposure.

    • Schedule: displays scheduled sessions (video chats) (asking Anjye about this, is it only the logged in user's sessions?)
    • Side By Side: Gives an option to display an image + text in a side by side manner. You can align the image to the left or right side.

 

To edit the content type, click the content type: this will open the Editing Section flyout.
