Reminders
Set stale and scheduled reminders on pages and files to send a message to you or an Modern Campus CMS group.
This video was recorded in OU Campus v10. While the interface may have a slightly different look, the platform functionalities did not drastically change in the OU Campus 11 release.
There are two ways to set or edit a reminder:
- Navigate to Content > Pages.
- Click the More Actions menu
. - Click Edit > Reminders.
- In the "Reminders" box, select the scheduled or stale reminder checkbox, as appropriate.
- Enter the date, time, number of days, and notification.
- Click Save.
or
- While viewing a page, click Properties in the page actions toolbar
- Click Reminders.
- Select the scheduled or stale reminder checkbox, as appropriate.
- Enter the date, time, number of days, and notification.
- Click Save.
To clear a reminder from a page, deselect the checkbox for that reminder.
Scheduled ReminderLink to this section
Scheduled reminders send a notification about a page at a specific date and time. For example, set a reminder to update tuition pages on the last day of the previous semester.
You can set the reminder to repeat periodically, starting from the scheduled date.
Stale ReminderLink to this section
Stale reminders send a notification about a page if it hasn't published within the amount of time you set. Use stale reminders to ensure content on a page is being updated periodically.
Stale reminders send notifications at the set interval until the page has been published again (for example, if a page is stale after one week, Modern Campus CMS sends a stale reminder every week after the initial reminder). The stale reminder checks from the last published date and time, not when the reminder was set.
