Community Happenings: March 1 2017
Published
Anyone remember this guy in the Community?
Believe it or not, it’s been two years since the new Blackbaud Community prepared to go live. The official go live date is technically tomorrow but that Sunday filled with testing, check-in calls, and Raiser's Edge orange etched into my eyeballs will be a day of infamy for this Community Manager. Yes, infamy.
Two years and many product communities later, the Blackbaud Community has grown tremendously and it’s all because of you.
Your Community Managers continue to find new ways for you to learn, connect, and engage so you can achieve your missions and make the world a better place. Simply put - thank you for being here. It's been a great ride so far!
Enough of the sappiness – let’s get to the Community goodness:

I know we've been working on the other search capability you mention below and I'm going to make sure this feedback makes it to our team working on it. I appreciate your feedback.
Keep connecting - I love hearing about that! :)
There are a couple improvements I'd like to see, if they're possible. Right now, when I'm in the Raiser's Edge chat area, there's no easily navigable button to exit the Raiser's Edge community topics in order to get to, say, Best Practices. Also, when doing a member search, you can only select one Job Role type at a time - if you select two, it operates on an AND function, rather than an OR function, so selecting "database administrator" AND "Gifts Management" yields only individuals who have both listed on their profiles. If you could change this to an OR functionality, that would be nice.
Keep up the great work!
