Never forget another moment worth celebrating or honoring! The Calendar is a place where any occasion you'd like to be (or should be) reminded of will show. You can customize email reminders to be sent 1 week before, in a monthly digest, or both. Creation for each occasion is easily done directly from the Calendar page or any email reminder that you receive.
How do I add reminders to my Calendar?
To add calendar reminders manually, follow these steps:
-
Go to https://www.kudoboard.com/calendar. If adding a reminder on a business plan, go to your business plan landing page and add /calendar to the URL — for example, subdomain.kudoboard.com/calendar. The Calendar page can also be reached by clicking the Calendar tab on the left-hand side of your Dashboard.
- Enter the recipient name, the occasion, and the date of the event. If the occasion is a holiday that exists in our dropdown, the date will auto-fill for you. If there's a holiday you'd like to see in the dropdown, reach out to help@kudoboard.com and let us know!
- Reminders will default to being annual. If you would prefer to create a one-time-only reminder, uncheck 'Set annual reminder' at the bottom of the "Add reminder" modal.
Manual reminders will be blue and populate in a calendar list view as below. On Business, Pro, and Enterprise plans, there are additional calendar reminder types that you can learn about in THIS support article. Use the three-dot menu to the right of each listing to edit or delete it at any time.
If you create the board for a listed occasion directly from this calendar view or from the email reminder, the recipient and occasion will auto-fill, that board will automatically register as being associated with the calendar listing, and the "+ Create" CTA will update to a "Go to board" or "Go to card" CTA.
From your Home page, you'll also get a preview of the top three upcoming occasions from your calendar.
How do I manage manual reminder email notifications?
By default, both the 1-week-before and monthly digest email reminders will be on for your account. To update these, simply visit your Calendar page and click the "Email notifications" button in the upper right-hand corner. Toggle notifications on and off as desired.
What is the difference between the Create and Contribute tabs?
The "Create" tab shows calendar reminders that you manually added or that have been synced from employee data (Business, Pro, and Enterprise plans only). These are boards that you need to create and/or manage.
The "Contribute" tab is where boards that have a scheduled delivery date that you have been invited to contribute to or have created yourself will show. These list items will be orange.
You can use the "Add a post" CTA to go directly to the board to add your message and media. Once you contribute, we'll note that on the list item and the "Add a post" CTA will update to a "Got to board" CTA.
