Auction Module Continues to be a Big Hit

16 customers, together with the Passageways team, have raised $11,425.50 for charity by purchasing the Auction Module. Many customers are using the module for internal charity fundraisers as well. Here is what a few of them are saying:

• "I just wanted to provide you some feedback from our staff on the Auction Module. We just completed our annual United Way auction and raised over $2,000 in 4 days through the auction module. Our staff LOVED it and because it was so easy, more staff participated in the auction. We love the ability to receive an alert when someone has outbid you. It's great. Thanks."
                                                              - Noreen Schafer
                                                                NuUnion Credit Union
  
  
• "We also held our United Way Auction on our portal using the Auction Module. We raised $1932. It was fantastic!"
                                                              - Julie Hedrick
                                                                City National Bank

This Auction Manager Module consists of two islands and a “Module Administration Tool” that allows Financial Institutions to easily manage an auction inside the Passageways Portal Framework. The module is being offered as a “name your price” module, allowing organizations to choose how much they would like to “pay” for the application. Whatever price is chosen, that money is donated to the following four charities the Passageways’ employees selected:

• YWCA (local Lafayette/West Lafayette chapter)
• Children's Miracle Network
• American Heart Association
• American Cancer Society

Using Anchors in Rich Text Editor

If you create a Rich Text Editor island that contains a lengthy amount of content you may wish to create anchors to redirect your users. It is important to note; however, that you must create anchors a little differently when using the Rich Text Editor than in standard html. For example, if your anchor tag is #top, in html you would simply place the anchor tag top behind your text you wish to anchor.

In this situation, the Rich Text Editor is designed to auto-complete the URL to http://passageways/Modules/Standard/Islands/PWRichTextEditor/Editcontent.aspx?ObjectID=#ReturnUrl=LayoutManagers%2fGridLayout%2fIslandOptions.aspx%3fPageID#top for example, and incorrectly direct users to the Actions Menu Edit mode of the island regardless of user permissions.

It is recommended that any links or anchors in the Rich Text Editor utilize full URLs.

Use the Rich Text Editor's Hyperlink Manager button located on the Rich Text Editor toolbar. Please see instructions below:

1. Select the text that you wish to be your anchor.
2. Click on the Hyperlink Manager button and select the Anchor tab.
3. Type your anchor name (for example: if you wish to relocate your users back to the top of the page, you could use #top as your anchor name). Click OK.
4. Select the text you wish to be your link to your anchor. (For example: "return to top").
5. Obtain your full page URL: Right-click on the page link on the navigation tree and select "Copy Shortcut."
6. Click on the Hyperlink Manager button. Select the Hyperlink tab.
7. Paste the full page URL into the URL field.
8. Select the Anchor tab and type the same anchor name (ex: #top). Click OK.
9. Be sure to click OK at the bottom of your Rich Text Editor to save changes.
