Description

User Landing Page

This is the page a user lands on when they log into their account on your site.

Default Opportunity View

This is how volunteer Opportunities are displayed to the user. You can choose to show them in a grid or list, or on a map or calendar.

Default Opportunity Sort Order

This is the order in which volunteer Opportunities are displayed to users. The default choice is to show the most recently updated volunteer Opportunities first.

Show Full Opportunities

This is where you enable or disable waitlists on your site. You can choose to display Opportunities even when they have reached their set capacity, not show them, or enable the waitlist for users to be put on in the event a spot opens up.

Users can filter Opportunities using geolocation

Toggling this On enables a geolocation filter that users can use to find volunteer Opportunities within their area. You can disable this at any time by toggling it Off.
