Highlight Upcoming Day Speakers!

You have speakers join you for virtually every meeting and so you asked for a better way to showcase them on your site. From being able to display their picture to having some way to showcase them on the homepage, we've made it possible!

We've added new settings within the Speakers widget property that let you better promote your upcoming speakers. Now, when you go into the Speakers widget property, you will see three new
settings:
  • Highlight Upcoming Day Speakers
  • Show Photo of Highlighted Speaker
  • Show Description of Highlighted Speaker
To reach the properties page, hover over the speakers widget and click on the cog icon.

By selecting the "highlight" option, the system will automatically apply a background color as per the website theme you are using, to have the upcoming speaker entry stand out.

By selecting the "show photo" option, we will automatically resize and display the picture of the speaker within the Speakers widget itself. Similarly, with the "show description" option, we will show the description that was added to speaker entry on the speakers widget.  This eliminates the need for the visitor to navigate to the Speaker Details page for more information.

These settings will apply to the current day's speaker, and will automatically also apply for all future speakers. Within the coming weeks, you will see more customization options related to showcasing your speakers including being able to define the color of the highlight property.

We're dedicated to improving the ClubRunner system would love to hear your feedback. Please continue to submit your suggestions.
