How to schedule when a Member Notice goes out?


 

Hi folks,

I've searched the "help" until I can't see straight. But I can't find the answer to my questions:

How do you activate a monthly member notice??

That is, after you set it up, how do you send it out?

What does "monthly" mean -- that it will automatically go out a month from when you set it up?

?

Thanks,
Gina

There are Guidelines and Monthly Reminders.? Both go out on the 1st of the month.

See in the GMF wiki -?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Member-Notices

Gina, the GMF wiki which anyone can see is quite helpful. And there is a search box at the top of the page.

As far as I have figured it, the monthly notice will not go out excatly one month after you set it up. It goes out on the 1st day of the month in the time zone that you have set for your group. It begins on the 1st day of the month following the date that ayou set it up. I haven't found a way to send it out monthly on a specific day such as the 15th or the first Sunday of every month.?

Sandi/Gina -- A group Guideline, once set up, will appear on the left-side menu bar, and can be referred to by that means at any time. It can also be automatically emailed to a person when he joins, by ticking the corresponding checkbox.

If you want a memo of some kind to go out as an email at some other scheduled interval (i.e.: not the first of the month), you have to set that up as a recurring calendar event, not a member notice. When set up correctly, the memo will appear in the group as a #cal-notice.

Yes indeed. If you want a reminder to go out on a specific time each month, such as the 4th of each month, or the first Tuesday of each month, etc, etc... use the Calendar reminder to do that. You can give those special days a different color so they are visually easier to locate too.
