Updating a group

A group in Muzodo is a music group such as a band, orchestra or choir. It can include the band executive or action committees too.

To update a group to your account, go to the Groups tab, ensure you are listed as an administrator for the group, and click the Group name.

Updating the details

When filling in the details, take note of the following:

Logo

Create some branding for your group and add your logo. Logos appear in event notification emails, downloaded spreadsheets and set lists.

Grab your logo off your website. If you don't have one, choose a picture that symbolizes your group. Be sure to choose something that's big and bold so that it displays well when displayed at its smallest size. Once uploaded, you can move the logo into position, zoom and crop if necessary.

Sections

Sections must be one per line. The sections specified here determine the order of the sections when viewing member details and responses. If a section in the member details does not exactly match one here, it will be displayed at the top.

When creating events, sections can be selected or unselected as a whole.

Sections have their own mail group address, e.g. trumpets.yourgroup@muzodo.com. See Group emailing a section for details.

Recording Attendance

Enable this option to record attendance for your events. See: Keeping Attendance.

Extras

Members can be classified as Permanent, Extras or Inactive. You can choose to include extras by default when creating an event.

NOTE: Including or excluding Extras from group email is set under the group email options. Inactive members are never included.

Auto-reminders

Members who don't respond in a 'timeous fashion' can be reminded automatically by Muzodo, according to the details you set here. These are default values and can be changed for each event you create. See: Auto-reminders.

Pre-event reminders

These are reminders typically sent days or hours before an event to members who've replied 'Yes', so they don't forget to show up! This is the default for the group but can be overridden by each member to a different value or switched off should they have their own calendar/reminder system. See: Pre-event reminders.

Custom Event Fields

If you need extra fields to the standard one's Muzodo provides for events, you can add your own. e.g. Uniform, Loading time, Sit down/marching gig, etc. These fields are filled in when you create an event. See: Custom Event Fields.

Administrators

Click the dropdown list to select or unselect administrators. See: Administrators.

Mail Group

Your group gets its own email address. See What is group email for details.
