| ==Welcome Messages==
| |
| | |
| Welcome messages are a great way to provide your students, staff and faculty with additional information. This is the first item a student will see when they log into your Trac system. These messages usually provide details about hours of operation, services your centers provide, even orientation-based videos or videos showing how to book appointments for your students and staff. Welcome messages can be customized for each user type (Student, Faculty, Staff) allowing you to create student-specific welcome message, a staff-specific message, and a faculty-specific message. You may also use HTML as well as Twig to personalize the messages to the user viewing the message or to add pictures, videos, or gifs to the message.

| Welcome Messages can be managed by going to <i>Other > Other Options > Preferences > Welcome Messages</i>.

| The built-in text editor allows you to write out any message you'd like, but you can modify the HTML source of your message by clicking on <i>Tools > Source Code</i>. TracCloud supports HTML5, meaning we can embed virtually anything, from videos to documents, even online clocks, directly into the dashboards of our students and staff. The recommended max width for these elements is 500px.

| The entire welcome message can be written in the Source Code tool, or you can simply use it to add to or fine-tune what you already have in place.

| In addition to HTML, Twig can also be utilized to pull student/staff data into the message. For example, you can create a personalized message for your students with something like the following.
