Community Release - November 18, 2019
New Features:
- New Volunteer Dashboard Block: For new CCL Volunteers (defined as either having joined within the past 60 days or having logged into CCL Community less than five times), a new block has been added at the top of the Dashboard that displays a link to the new volunteer page - helping highlight some of the initial steps to take in becoming active as a volunteer.
- Messages sent from the Event Admin -> Messaging option will now have the Name of the Event Owner included as the From Field (e.g. John Doe via CCL Community) for the email sent.
- The View Event page now displays the Event Name in the browser tab.
- Selecting "Now" from the "When to Send" dropdown in the Event Admin -> Messaging option disables the "Before/After Event Start Date" options, as they are not necessary.
