Fields
News Item Panel
Field | Description |
---|---|
Headline | Text that displays as the headline for the news item. Character/255 The headline is used to sort how news items display on the Week View page. News items are sorted by effective date with the most recent items at the top. If multiple items have the same effective date, the items are sorted in ascending alphabetical order by headline. |
Message | Text of the news item. Character/6000 Note that the message field does not support the use of HTML to format text. News items may be displayed in the eSchoolPlus Family App which does not support the use of HTML. |
Effective Date | Date that the news item becomes effective. The effective date is used to sort news items on the Week View page so that the most recent items are displayed at the top of the news. Items do not display if the effective date is after the current date. |
Expiration Date | Date that the news item should no longer be displayed on the Week View page. For example, if you want to notify users about scheduled maintenance to occur on Friday 12/10/2016, you could enter an expiration date of 12/10/2016 so that the news item would not display after the maintenance was scheduled to occur. |
Building List | Select the buildings of the students and/or guardians you want to see the news item. Select codes from the field's drop-down list, or click (asterisk) to select all codes, then remove any that do not apply. |
