    I am loving this plug in. Is there a way to have multiple profiles as managers? Specifically, we have different team members responsible for different programs. I would like to have them be able to manage their own posts, emails, etc. And still have all volunteer opportunities listed on one page. Without one person responsible for dealing with all of the traffic.

    It’s great to hear the plugin has been helpful for you all @jwickman. In order to give everyone the ability to edit volunteer opportunities, I’d recommend adding each of them as a user within your WordPress site, and giving them the “Editor” role. That will allow them to edit any of the volunteer opportunities within the site. It’s worth noting that the “Editor” role also provides access to change other content throughout the site, so you definitely want to make sure you feel comfortable providing individuals that level of access.

    In regards to the emails, every email to volunteers will be sent using the “from” address provided at Volunteer Mgmt >> Help & Settings >> Email >> “From Email Address” field. That said, you can set up variables in the “Volunteer Signup Email” field at Help & Settings >> Email which allows you to provide the contact information for whoever manages that volunteer opportunity. For example, you can add a sentence that reads “If you have any questions please reach out to {contact_name} at {contact_email} or by phone at {contact_phone}.” When the email is sent, the appropriate contact information will be provided, either using the global settings at Help & Settings >> Opportunity Details >> the “Default Contact Information” fields, or if available, the contact information provided on the edit screen for that specific volunteer opportunity.

    I know there’s a lot of detail here, so let me know if you have any other questions. Always happy to help.

    Since we haven’t heard from you in a little while I’m going to mark this as resolved. Of course, if any other questions come up don’t hesitate to reach out.
