Tendenci – The Open Source AMS Blog

Updates to the User View pages allow you to see the latest content each user has added to your Web site.

This enables amazing transparency within your organization and also gives you an easy way to follow all of the new content from your site contacts.

The Tendenci software is designed to help your organization connect and communicate.  Use this new content monitoring tool to keep in touch with the latest and greatest of your members’ contributions.

The Tendenci calendar makes it easy for your attendees to pick and choose from your organization’s events.   Yesterday we released new Color Fields to make it even easier to differentiate from one event type to another.

The Color Fields let you change the color of your event type in the monthly and daily view of your event calendar.  Visualization is good!  Learn how to edit your Calendar Event Types in this help file here. 

Connect with Web site members you find interesting by adding them as a contact.  Your contact list lets you keep track of new content that your contacts add to the Web site and gives you easy link access to their User Profiles.

When you are viewing a member’s User profile page, you will notice a new Connection icon link next to their User name (see accompanying graphic).  Simply click on this icon and they are automatically added to your Connection list.

The newly added contact will receive an email notification so they can reciprocate the connection. To view your Connections list, click on the ‘Connections’ link at the top of your User Profile page.

We have revised the WYSIWYG editor that appears on all the edit pages of your Tendenci site.  This is our way of increasing the usability of the software and it also decreases the load time for edit pages.

There is an easy to use, formatting tool available that you can use to create tables and any additional formating.  You can download this free tool Nvu at http://www.nvu.com/download.php. Once you have added formating to your content using Nvu, you can simply copy the code onto the specific page on your site. 

We are taking any feedback you may have about the revised editor.  So if there is a specific icon you find yourself missing, please do email us at Schipul Support.

You may have noticed that your Tendenci dashboard pages have a little different look these days.  We updated our navigation tabs to be a little sleeker and a little prettier.

Not a gigantic change – but a nice little tweak to keep things looking good for you.
