For example; the username used to set-up TextLocal or your Podcast feed URL/SoundCloud ID.
20-Jan-2017 - Custom Field formats
You can now select between different formats for Custom Fields in the Address Book, Children and Small Groups module.

Optionally set custom fields as required and perform batch updates on your existing data. Custom fields are fully searchable in Advanced Search and within Smart Tags, and in the Missing Data report.

Connect
01-Mar-2017 - Donate fund pages
We've now made it possible to have fund pages that don't appear in the ChurchApp Donate drop-down list, but are available through the direct link. Funds that you choose not to tick with "Show in Donate" will continue to not show in the drop-down list, but the fund page URL for those funds will continue to work as long as the fund is active.
http://support.churchsuite.com/article/115-setting-up-and-managing-funds-in-giving09-Jan-2017 - Small Groups in ChurchApp Connect
We have now added a Groups List section to Connect which, similar to the Events List, allows people to view a list and/or map of your small groups and sign-up to them. You can display optional filters to the page to make it easier for people to find the right group. And if group sign-up is enabled they can sign-up too. Within ChurchApp you can manage which groups are visible in Connect using the "Show in Connect" checkbox.
