Church Director Product Blog

It will soon be possible to view conflicts on the assignment request screen (the screen that an assignee sees when clicking the link in their assignment request email). Below is an example:

It is now easier than ever to know when and where you are being requested, see your current response (or if you haven’t responded yet), and view any possible conflicts you may have on that same day. Clicking on a possible conflict will take you to the same assignment confirmation screen for the conflicting event, allowing you to see details and change your response, if desired. This should make it even easier to prevent double-bookings and remind assignees of forgotten assignments for the same day.
Stay tuned - more previews coming soon as we near the last stretch of this major site upgrade!

I’ve had quite a few of you ask me what is coming up for the next major release of Church Director. Here is a sneak preview of the new look and feel:

As you can tell, there is a new site theme that we think makes it look even better! The navigation bar has also been remodeled, with often-used features readily available.

In addition, the table listings have been cleaned up and the links converted to buttons to make them easier to find. Some tables also have filters on the upper-right corner, allowing you to switch between active and previously deleted items (think of the recycle bin on Windows or OS X).

Here is one more sneak preview:

Within each area, you are automatically taken to the most commonly needed function (in this example, your team member list) but other options are just a click away (e.g. Job Roles from the Manage My Team section).

There is more room on a screen now as well, using our new navigation tool bars. Combined with a wider screen layout to match your monitor size (1024×768 and above are common now), this release will make a huge improvement in how you use Church Director!

More previews coming soon…
