Whats in a Staff Connect Room

Feed


The Feed tab is the first section that loads when you enter a Staff Room

This section contains the Announcement Feed and a Participants list located on the right side of the page that contains a list of Staff in the Room. Each Staff Member will have a Staff Member or Moderator title beneath them.

  • Scheduling a Post

    • Located by clicking the words Advanced settings located at the bottom left of the attachment box, you can toggle on the ability to schedule the post you are making. When you enable the schedule toggle, the system will present you with date and time options to set. Select Save Changes to finish.

  • Message All

    • If you would like to quickly create a group message to all of your staff in a room, click Message All at the top right corner of the Participants section on the right side of the page. Clicking Message all opens up the messages tab and adds all staff members to a message that you can begin composing.


Materials

The Materials allows you to add relevant links and documents for the Room. In Materials, you'll have the option to create a folder to house different documents and links, or use the Add button to add links or documents.

To move documents or links around, clicking and dragging and dropping, will move the various items to where you'd like them to be, or select the three dots, and use the Move item option.

Additional items under the three dots are the ability to Edit details, Download the document, and Delete if that document is no longer needed.

The maximum upload size is 200MB


Info

Info allows you to see and manually modify your room participants, as well as share any pertinent room information.

In the Info tab, you'll see a box titled Info with an Edit button. Once selected, you'll be able to add room expectations, communication expectations, or general bio information.



Staff Moderator/Member Roles

Staff can be designated as either Moderators (who can create content and manage the Room) or Members (who can participate, but can't make administrative changes).

This works the same way on web and mobile, updates in real-time, and automatically protects rooms by ensuring there's always at least one moderator.

Switching roles can be accomplished by select the left to right arrows next to a staff members name when you hover your mouse over a name.

Roles can also be changed by clicking the ... and editing participants, each staff member either added manually, or once clicked into within a roster will have a left/right toggle to slide back and forth between Moderator/Member
