How it works
Keeps the school's rarely changed settings in one place, apart from everyday work.
Settings is a page in the admin dashboard. You open it from the organisation picker at the top of the side menu with Organisation settings (or with the Manage button at the top of the school's page). The owner sees it, and so do employees with the Edit organisation profile or Manage events and their sessions permission. Ordinary users don't have it.
The page is split into four groups, with these sections:
- Organisation: Profile and Member contract;
- Scheduling: Rooms, Event colours and Attendance answers;
- Payments: Online payments with Stripe;
- Advanced: Beta updates.
Which sections you see depends on your permissions: Profile needs Edit organisation profile, Rooms and Event colours need Manage events and their sessions, and the contract, attendance answers, Stripe and beta updates are owner-only. Sections you have no permission for are not shown.
On a wide screen there is a menu of sections on the left and the open section on the right. On a phone you first see a list of the sections, each with a short status (for example "Attached" or "Connected"), and pressing one opens it full screen with a link back to Settings.
Good to know
If you don't see Organisation settings, you have neither permission. Ask the owner to give you Edit organisation profile or Manage events and their sessions.
Old links to a "Settings" tab on the school's page send you here. That tab is no longer in the school page's tab bar.
Group categories are no longer here. They are managed from the Groups page of the dashboard, with the Categories button.
