New Member Highlights
Welcome new families by featuring them on the member home screen for a date range you choose.
New Member Highlights introduce new families to your congregation. During the dates you choose, highlighted families appear in a Meet Our New Members card on the home screen of the member web app and mobile app.
Turning It On
New Member Highlights are on by default. To turn them off or on, go to Admin → Account Settings → Configuration Options and use New Member Highlights. The Directory feature must also be enabled.
Scheduling a Highlight
In the Admin sidebar, open New Member Highlights and click Add Highlight.
Fill in the highlight:
Family — any current member household.
Start date and End date — defaults to the next two weeks.
Welcome note — optional, such as "They moved here from Kentucky."
Feature the number of children and their first names — on by default. Ages and birthdays are never shown.
Click Schedule Highlight.
The list shows each highlight as Active, Upcoming, Past, or Archived. Drag highlights to set the order families appear. To end a highlight early, open it and click Archive Highlight; archived highlights can be restored. Past highlights are available under History.
What Members See
While a highlight is active, the Meet Our New Members card shows the family's photo, names, children (if included), and welcome note. Selecting a family opens their directory page.
A family is removed from the card automatically if they are no longer an active member household.
Permissions
Managing highlights requires the Manage New Member Highlights permission (or Manage Account). See Roles.
