The New Blackbaud Community Is Here!
Published
Welcome to your new Blackbaud Community experience.
What's changed? Here are a few new exciting features!
The Blackbaud Community is now mobile friendly. You can now access Community on the go. The new look and feel is designed to give you the very best mobile and visual experience.
A few things you can check out/update:
Your profile page - you'll notice you have a new image you can upload. Your favorite city? Your school logo? A pic of your fur babies? You can now upload a photo that best represents you and your organization on your profile page.
Forums and blogs now have an auto-save feature after 10 seconds, so you won't lose any of your words.
When you log into Community, you'll notice only the products/solutions you chose are now in the top navigation bar, making for a cleaner experience as you move around the Community.
The search bar on forums is no longer at the top of the page, but easily accessible in a new pop up window at the top of the forums.
Adding a topic no longer opens on another page, you can now make a post in the popup editor once you hit "add topic."
💁♀️ All kinds of new emojis! Check them out in the editor under the smiley face.
It's not just likes anymore on forum posts, you can now give your fellow members a like, a heart, clapping hands, lightbulb, party horn, and an inquisitive face.
You can now tag discussions and then click on that tag to find other discussions around the same tag. #Awesome!
Want to read a forum post without clicking into it? Just hover over the post!
There are so many great features with the new Community experience! We will be holding webinars soon to walk everyone through the new features, so be on the lookout for those.

I very often attend webinars and want to recommend them to colleagues or clients either immediately or sometimes a few weeks later. I can never find the recordings on the community. And since I don't always remember the exact name, it takes awhile to search my email and calendar.
If there was a central place that listed the recordings from Blackbaud webinars, that would be a huge help. Especially if there were filters so I could focus on FE or RE or some other product. Does it exist already and I cannot find it?
A few come to mind:
- One on actions and moves management in RENXT. I've tracked the recording down in my email, but have searched for the exact session name in the community and had no luck.
- A series of 3 sessions all about linking FE and RE. This one was mind-blowingly good
- A series of 3 (I think) sessions on PowerApps
Thanks much!!Karen
It was useful if you wanted to paste from, say, a draft email without setting all of the unnecessary formatting from Outlook.

Major ❤ for the keyword hashtags within the forums. Plus, emojis/emoticons are easier to use (although at times it is wonky). I'll keep playing around and checking out the new features, but so far so good!! ?
