How to share, notify and close a campaign

A campaign starts as a draft that nobody can answer. Open it, then get the word out: share its link yourself, have Dodgeball Hub notify the people who can answer, or both. Close it when you’ve heard enough.

Before you start

• Create the campaign and add its questions.

Steps

1. In your event’s planner, open Commentaires et vote and click the campaign. Your organization’s campaigns are under Commentaires et vote in its menu.

   

2. Click Paramètres.

   

3. Set Statut to Ouvrir and click Enregistrer. People can answer from now on, or from the start date if the campaign has one.

   

4. Click Copier le lien and share the link wherever your people will see it: an email, your group chat or the event’s message board. Whoever opens it signs in first, and only the people who can respond can answer.

   

5. To notify them through Dodgeball Hub, click Forcer l’envoi de la notification and confirm. For an event’s campaign set to Liste de l’événement (Joueurs et personnel), everyone on its rosters with an account is notified. For your organization’s campaign, its members or managers are, as you chose under Qui peut répondre ?. They get a notification in Dodgeball Hub that opens the survey, and an email an hour later if they haven’t read it by then.

   

6. The button gives way to the date the notification went out. A campaign’s notification is sent only once.

   

7. People who open the link answer your questions and click Envoyer. Each person answers once: opening the link again tells them they’ve completed the survey.

   

8. When you have enough answers, click Paramètres again, set Statut to Fermé and click Enregistrer. The link now says the survey is closed. Set it back to Ouvrir to take answers again.

   

Then read the results.

Notify automatically

Turn on Envoyer des notifications automatiques in the campaign’s settings, and Dodgeball Hub sends the same notification for you, once, while the campaign is open:

• For an event’s campaign set to Liste de l’événement (Joueurs et personnel): once the event’s last day is over, so players get it after they’ve played.
• For any other campaign: once its start date arrives, or as soon as it’s open if it has none.

It can take up to an hour to go out. Once it has, the campaign shows the date it was sent, as in step 6.
