Content > Link Lists > Volunteer 3 - Stats

This displays a list of featured, statistic numbers and uses a count up animation effect when in view. Within the link list items, the "name" will show as the text and the number should be entered in the "description" field (no other fields are used). NOTE - the numbers cannot include characters like commas.

This setup uses the monklet labeled "Section Monklet - Stats" in the content area of the Volunteer #3 page, and the "find" parameter is added to specify the link list. 

ex: {{volunteer-3-stats|find="volunteer-3-stats"}} 

This is setup in the content area of the Volunteer #3 page (below the volunteer #3 stats monklet), so you can include headers, buttons, links, etc.

Content > Link Lists > Volunteer 3 - Areas of Focus

This link list will display a row of featured, linked icons. The following fields are used for each item in the list: name, description (optional), link (optional), icon class. If no link is used, there will be no hover effect. 

Within the content area of the Serve page (below the intro text) is the "Area of Focus" title and "Section Monklet - Icon Links" monklet. The "find" parameter is used within the monklet to specify the link list.

ex: {{volunteer-3-icon-links|find="volunteer-3-areas-of-focus"}} 

Content > Link Lists > Volunteer 3 - Categories

Within the list, the first level item is labeled "Filters" and should not be changed. The description field for this first item displays the welcome text next to the volunteer type buttons (ie: I want to serve in the...).

The actual tab/button titles are each listed as second level items underneath "Filters" and the up/down arrows can be used to change the order. Within each item, the "name" and "icon class" fields are used.

If you don't need separate serving types (church, community and world), the top filter bar can be removed by renaming the link list, ex: Volunteer 3 - Categories - OFF. If this option is used, then the category levels in the articles module would each move up one level, and you would no longer have categories that represent type. So the category structure would be Volunteer > Filter Title > Filter Category.

Content > Articles

When creating your volunteer articles, the following fields are used:

Detail Tab

• Title: controls the serving opportunity name
• Categories: the "volunteer" category, the tab/type category and any filter categories should be assigned
• Date: controls the order of the serving opps list
• Authors: if an author is assigned AND linked to a member account, the "I want to serve" button will display (see more details below)
• Header image: if your articles module has this field included, this will display as the header image on the detail page (after selecting a serving opportunity in the list)

Content Tab

• Keywords: control the site search results
• Content: the description is managed here. This is a full WYSIWYG editor, so you can add text, headings, buttons, links, etc. (summary field is not used)

Media Tab

• Image: displays the image for a serving opportunity in the list and in the header of the detail page
• No other media options are used for this layout

Content > Articles > Authors tab

To show a contact for a serving opportunity, you can assign an author. If only the first and last name are included for an author, then only the person's name will show as the contact on the detail page sidebar. If the author is also linked to a member account, then the name will be linked to the email address associated with the member account.

"I Want to Serve" Button and Contact Form

If the author assigned to a volunteer opportunity/article is connected to a member, then the "I want to serve" button will display in the serving list and on the detail page for the respective article. This button will popup a hard coded contact form, where the user can fill out name, email and message. When the form is submitted, an email notification will be sent to the email address listed for the author’s member account.
