SPLASH PAGES
Splash Pages tell the app to launch a particular weblink upon a Member’s login. It creates an iFrame of a website or piece of content you wish your Members to see when logging in. This is extremely helpful to assist with compliance training pushes, limited time offers, or culture pieces you want to highlight to your Members. This controls the first page experience for your Members. They will see the specific web page or file and then have the ability to “x” out to the main content screen. This will pop up EVERY time for a Member that has the appropriate permissions to view the splash page.
Important: Please make sure to test your splash page thoroughly before pushing out to your Members. Always test before sending something to a larger group of people.
