Editing Communication Messages

You can modify details of messages in the current LearnCenter. Initially, the messages in your LearnCenter use the default message set up in the root LearnCenter. This can be either the default root LearnCenter message that came with LearnCenter, or the customized message you or another Admin set up in the root LearnCenter. You can edit these messages on a per-LearnCenter basis. On the ControlPanel:

1. Click   on the Communications menu to expand it.
2. Click Messages.
3. Use the Filters section to locate the message you want.
4. Rest your pointer on the Communication Message you want in the Messages section, and then click . A new window opens displaying the message's details and editable fields. Use this page to view additional details for the message or to customize a standard message.

5. (Optional) Edit the Name of the message.
6. (Optional) Select one of the following for Status:

• Active - to indicate the message is active for this LearnCenter. (Default)
• Inactive - to indicate you do not want this message used for this LearnCenter.

7. Select one of the following for Format:

• Text - to indicate you want to edit messages in text only mode.
• HTML - to indicate you want to edit the messages using the HTML editor.

The format setting for the message is inherited by child sub LearnCenters. If the format you select here is different from the current LearnCenter’s parent LearnCenter, a restore action icon becomes available () on the Messages page when you rest your cursor on this message. This enables you to restore the message back to its default setting if needed.

8. If the Recipient section displays (Enrollment messages), select the appropriate recipients. The fields available in this section vary depending on the message you selected. Available options are described below:

• For Enrollment Admin Entry and Approval Messages Only - Click the Email check box to indicate you want this message sent via email, or clear the check box to prevent an email being sent to a User regarding this message.
• For Enrollment Admin Entry and Approval Messages Only - Click the Email check box to indicate you want this message sent via email, or clear the check box to prevent an email being sent to a User regarding this message.

3. Click the CC check box to indicate the recipients’ names should appear in the CC box, or clear the check box to indicate the recipients’ names should not appear in the CC box.

Select the To check box for approval messages if you want the message to be sent to the recipients without also having to select the approved Users as recipients. This is so you can notify recipients like the enrollment administrator without also sending a message to the approve Users. Select the Copy To check box to send a copy of the message (which is also sent to recipients) to the enrollment admin. This message has the wording “This notification is copied to you” inserted in the message body. This message is configurable.
