Configuring the domain-wide settings for the Greetings Module

Overview

Network administrators have the ability to manage domain-wide settings for the Greetings module. These settings control how users can create, send, and interact with greetings within the network.

---

Limit Recipients per Greeting

This setting determines the maximum number of recipients a user can select when sending a greeting. Administrators can use this to manage distribution and ensure appropriate usage.

---

Allow Users to Upload or Pick a Greeting from the Media Gallery

Enabling this option allows users to personalize their greetings by selecting an image from the media gallery or uploading a custom one. The Pick from Media Gallery button will appear in the Send a Greeting pop-up on the User Portal when this setting is turned on.

---

Allow Adding a Message to a Greeting

This setting gives administrators control over whether users can include a custom message when sending a greeting.

---

Allow Commenting on Greetings

With this option, administrators can enable or restrict users from commenting on greetings shared within the network.

Admins can choose to keep comments always enabled or automatically disable new comments and replies after a set duration between 1 and 90 days from the greeting’s creation/publish date. By default, comments and replies on greetings remain open indefinitely.

---

Allow Users to Upload Any Image as a Greeting

When enabled, this setting allows users to upload any image as a greeting via the Upload tab in the Add Media pop-up. Network administrators should consider implementing a Company Policy page outlining rules and guidelines for acceptable image uploads.

Widget Settings

Display Logged-in User’s Birthday in Widget

Users can see their own upcoming milestones within the Greetings widgets, making it easier to track personal celebrations:

• "You" Labeling: Personal entries are clearly labeled as (You) within the list.

• Pre-Event Status: Leading up to the day, the widget displays "It's your birthday soon!" or the upcoming anniversary year. These entries remain non-clickable until the actual date.

• Event Day: On the day of the milestone, the row becomes interactive. Clicking it triggers the full celebration animation.

Admins manage these visibility settings through the Greetings module settings in the Admin Portal:

• Visibility Toggles: Admins can enable or disable the display of a logged-in user’s own birthday or work anniversary in the widgets.

• Custom Highlighting: A background color from the branding palette can be configured to highlight a user’s own row, visible only to them.

Privacy First: Existing privacy settings are strictly enforced. If a user has set their birth or hire date to Private, they will not appear in the widget, even to themselves.
