Link to web sites for volunteer records from within Volgistics

Volunteer records in Volgistics have a Web site field on the Core tab. On group records, this field can be used to record the organization’s web site. On individual volunteer records, you can record the volunteer’s personal web page or their page on sites such as Facebook, Twitter, or Google Plus.

When a valid URL address is recorded in this field, you can include a Visit link by the field. This link will take you directly to the web site entered in the field. If you’re already signed into your account, such as Facebook, the link provides an easy way to go to the volunteer’s page and do something like make a post on their timeline or send a private message.

If the Web site field is hidden or the Visit link is not enabled, you can change this by following these steps:

  1. Select Setup from the menu.

  2. Expand the Field options link.

  3. Select Core tab.

  4. Select Web site.
