Event announcements


Recommended Posts

Just noticed that event owners can now make "Announcements" from the drop-down log type list.

These go out to everybody that's posted a "Will Attend", whether they have the event on watch or not.

 

Just have to say well done to Groundspeak for this one - a truly useful upgrade :blink::lol:

Great idea.....but why can't you edit it just like any other log? Is it because it goes to everyone who has placed a "Will attend log"?

Possibly, which means if you edit a mistake, not everyone who gets the notification will know that you have made a change. So mistakes would need to be corrected with a second notification.

 

Just my thoughts on why.

Is there a time limit or is it no longer there.

I was trying to show another cacher how it works on an event I archived a few months back. The feature was no longer listed. I know I used it a few times after it was archived so I know it's not that.

The announcement log type is only available on an active event. Once the listing is archived its no longer available.
