How Messaging Works
WhenToHelp provides an internal messaging system that allows you and your
Helpers to communicate - even if your Helpers do not have E-mail.
Coordinators can send messages to one Helper, a number of Helpers (by CTRL
clicking names in the messaging section or by using the
Helper list page), all Helpers for a particular position, other Coordinators,
everyone etc.
Helpers can sign in at WhenToHelp.com and send messages to the Coordinators and other Helpers.
When the message recipient signs in they see a "new message" alert in the "What's New" section of their home page and they can click the link to view the message. If
the Helper has an e-mail address entered a copy of any message is forwarded to
their e-mail address.
Coordinators and Helpers can set all of their Notifications options
to choose when they want to be notified or have messages forwarded to
their email or text message addresses.
Coordinators can also send URGENT TEXT ALERTS - which sends a short email or text message to Helpers who have signed up to receive them. WhenToHelp messaging is similar to other messaging systems. You can read incoming and sent messages, reply and compose new messages, send (and in the Paid Full Version save). We recommend having all messages forwarded to your e-mail account so that you can keep them on your computer for archive purposes. Old unsaved messages over 30 days old are removed from our system. WhenToHelp does not currently include a Spell Check feature but you can compose messages in your word processor, spellcheck, and then copy and paste the text into our messaging section.
