How to post on the message board

The message board holds your event’s announcements: a new start time, a venue change, a reminder for captains. Every post shows on your event page, and the people you pick get a notification.

Before you start

• You need to manage the event, or have a role on it that can post announcements.
• Players see the board once your event is published.
• Notifications only reach people tied to a Dodgeball Hub account. Someone added by name only can still read the post on the event page.

Steps

1. In your event’s planner, click Mitteilungsforum in the sidebar.

   

2. Click Nachricht zur Tafel hinzufügen.

   

3. Write your message. The toolbar adds formatting such as bold, lists and links, and you can add images under Anhänge.

   

4. Under Wer soll benachrichtigt werden?, choose who gets a notification. Alle covers every player, referee and staff member, and starts ticked. To reach a smaller group, open the list, untick it, then tick Alle Spieler, Kapitäne, Schiedsrichter or Personal. Captains include assistant captains.

   

5. Click Senden. Each person you picked gets a notification in the app that opens the post. If they don’t read it there, an email follows.

   

6. The post is at the top of the board, with the groups it notified. To change it, click its pencil: saving notifies its audience again. To remove it, click its bin. People who were notified then see that the message is no longer available. Deleting can’t be undone.

   

7. The post is also on the Mitteilungsforum tab of your event page. Everyone who can open the page can read it, whoever you notified, and filter the board by group.
