๐ Enable / Disable - Pages with a green tick next to them are visible to Students, those without are not. To change this, click on a page (Collections for example) and check / uncheck the Enable Checkbox.
โ๏ธ Custom page names, descriptions and icons - Once you have clicked on a page you will see text boxes for the 'Page label' and 'Description'. The page label is what Students see in the top left-hand corner of the page when it is opened. It also appears as a hotspot if they hover over the icon. The description will appear behind a question mark tooltip smaller font next to the page label after that page is opened. The description can be left blank but the page label cannot.
These changes will only affect the user type you have selected. To make changes for a different user type, just click select a different user type from the User Access section of the settings page.
๐ Create custom note pages
It's helpful to provide your users with some information whether that's about the content, where to access help, FAQs, or even information on other products or services for your business. Synap lets you create and pin a note as a main menu page. This is a great way to provide content to everyone via the menu.
In Settings>User access select the user type you want to view the note page. Then use the 'Add note page' button to browse through existing notes and select one to pin.
From here you can change the page label (name) add in a description and select a different icon.
๐จ Note: You cannot delete a note that's pinned to the menu, it must be removed as a page if it needs to be deleted. Edits to a pinned notes content will update for those users on save
๐ง Remember to click the save and refresh to view your changes button after making changes!
