In order for subscribers to receive a Content E-Alert when a change is made to a homepage or
section, you must create a Content E-Alert.
To create an E-Alert for subscribers:
1. Access the page or calendar event from which you wish to send a Content E-Alert. A Schoolwires Editor like the one shown in Exhibit 10-6 for a page or an event like the one shown in Exhibit 10-7 will display.
Exhibit 10-6
Exhibit 10-7
2. When you have made the necessary changes, click on the Create Alert button. A Send window like the one shown in Exhibit 10-8 will display.
Exhibit 10-8
Important Note: Schoolwires recommends that you place your cursor before the message in this window and type a message to the subscribers that details the changes. This is particularly important when you send a Content E-Alert for an event since the subscriber will only receive a link to the calendar page and not to the specific event.
3. Click on the Send button. A confirmation message like the one shown in Exhibit 10-9 will display. Subscribers will receive an email message notifying them of the change. The email message will contain a link to the update page, allowing subscribers to access it immediately.
