NOTE: A pop-up alert will display
in front of the landing page when
a member logs into the desktop, or
in front of the calendar page on a

8. Click on ARCHIVE to return to the News Archive page. All news items default to offline status so you may view prior to posting.

defaulted to OFFLINE status
Now you have added a PDF file as a News Item for your members to view. If you’ve added the Pop-up Alert, they will see this when they login to the site and whenever they return to MYHOME page on a desktop computer. On a mobile device they will view the news item instead of landing on the calendar page upon login.
