We are excited to announce the launch of updated product names, logos, and headers within our user interfaces as part of the CivicPlus® Solution Rebranding initiative. These changes mark the first step toward creating a cohesive and seamless user experience across all solutions in our portfolio. As part of this transition, users may notice minor design updates. While the functionality you rely on remains unchanged, we are in the process of updating screenshots and other resources on our Help Centers to reflect the new branding. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to complete these updates.

Bulletin Example

The system will automatically resize it so the image is not too large but the minimum image size to be uploaded is 800 pixels wide and 400 pixels in height. It is better to create the images at the appropriate size because if the system resizes the image it could distort any text present. If you have any sizing issues or questions, please contact support.

Review on Tab

Group Admin can click within the date box and a calendar will display to select
the month, day, and year to review the content. An email will be sent to the Group Admin email address with a review reminder.

 

Scheduling options Tab

This feature allows a Group Admin to choose Publish and Unpublish dates for Bulletin Notices. For both Publish on and Unpublish on fields choose Dates and Times for displaying notices. If the Publish on date is blank it will be published immediately. If the Unpublish on date is blank it will remain published on the website until manually removed.
