How to Add a Banner for the Organisation

Organisation Admins can create custom banners to notify users of important information. Banners may be visible to a specific group of users or to several groups depending on the content.

Create a Banner

Organisation Admins can create a banner by going to the Settings page and selecting 'Banners'. Then click '+ Banner'.



When the 'New Banner' window opens, enter any information that should appear on the banner under 'Content'.

Text can be bolded or italicized for emphasis using the 'B' and 'I' buttons. 

Hyperlinks can be added by highlighting a word or phrase then clicking the Link Icon and entering a URL. Check that the URL appears correctly then select 'Link'. To unlink a word or phrase, click the Link Icon and select 'Unlink'.



Organisation Admins can also customise the appearance of the banner by changing the colours of the background and text.

If the check box for 'Dismissible' is selected, users will not be able to close or remove the banner.

If it's cleared, they can close or remove it.

Decide which user types can see the banner by setting permissions. Click any check box next to a user type to apply the banner to those users. If a banner has already been created and the permissions need to be changed, clear any check box next to a user type to make the banner unavailable to those users.

Check that the banner and permissions appear correctly then click 'Save'. The banner will be shown to the selected users.

Note: Different banners can be created for different users.

Organisation Admins should contact us with any further questions regarding this process.
