Hey everyone, in this video tutorial we're going to show you how to edit your digital bulletin. The digital bulletin is set up just a little bit differently than a normal page, but it is very similar to editing a normal page, so let me walk you through it. So, first you're going to go to the front end, uhm, uh, URL of your digital bulletin. For some people it's backslash connect, others it's backslash digital bulletin. Whatever it is there, once you're there, you'll click on enable visual builder. Now once enable visual builder is live, it's just like editing any other page, so if you want to adjust the text here, you can click on the cog, change the text there. If you want to adjust this button here, you can click on the cog, change the button title, change where it links to. Uhm, if you want to duplicate beta button, just hover over this two squares. And you can duplicate it, and as normal, you can drag and drop and move these things around. Uhm, now, what I would also recommend is your digital bulletins are typically viewed on a mobile phone. So, I would click on the three dots here and change this to mobile phone view, as that's the main area people are going to be, uhm, seeing this or adjusting this on. So, now, just to show you, a few things in here, uhm, this is a toggle, uhm, here at the top. So, if you need to edit today's message, you can click on the module setting whenever you hover over today's message. And that'll allow you to adjust the title there. Now, you're going to see it doesn't show anything in the body, uhm, and that's because what we're doing is we're basically having to put through some, uh, special stuff on our side, put rows and columns all inside of here instead of limiting you just to body text there. So, uhm, now in here, if you're wanting to update, maybe you have an image here and you're updating this image to your, uh, sermon series every week or maybe you're coming in here and adjusting this text. Now these are all, uh, you can use this in full text. Full visual builder mode here. So just to show you a few things around here, you can click the plus button at any time and you can type in image and add an image somewhere. You can also click the plus underneath and go to, uh, text and type in text and you can add some text somewhere. Uhm, so that's all there. Now this area for your signup and events area, if you click on the cog on that, that is pulling in over your latest post. Now we can create a specific category here if you'd like called digital bulletin. Some of you may already have this set up where we have a specific category for digital bulletin. That way you can select, Hey, I only want these three announcements in the digital bulletin or I only want these five announcements in digital bulletin. So you can select, but here for this purpose, we're just pulling out. We're just the same announcements that are on the homepage and mobile app. Let us know if you want help adding a digital bulletin check mark so that in the back end you can choose where you really want things to go there, but this will just pull the same announcements that are on your homepage, um, as well. Um, now your worship set, if you're wanting to link, this is a blurb icon box that says worship throughout the week and you can put a link there. And you can change your, uh, links that you want in here. So if you want to change where that link goes, you can update, again, just the cog and you can then scroll down and click on link and change where that link goes to. Um, and again, some churches come in and have a worship set, update that weekly. Again, if you want to change this to not be worship set, you can change it to say something else. Um, and now in wanting to add a new area, um, let us know if you'd like to do that because it does take a little bit of extra duplication on our side to add those. Um, now I will walk you through how to do that. Um, I think you'll be able to get this here. So I'm just going to show you, if you're in the mobile phone view, really all you need to do is if
