Edit tile permissions

The “padlock” button on each tile can be used to set tile permissions. You can customize which user roles have permission to view the tile, and on which student profiles the tile should appear. You can also customize which user roles have permission to edit the tile and on which student profiles the tile can be edited.

In this example, the ECRISS Admin, District Leadership, Building Leadership, Teacher, Parent, and Student roles have permission to view the Personal Statement tile, but only the ECRISS Admin, District Leadership, and Student roles have permission to edit the tile.

You can limit on which student profiles the tile appears and/or can be edited by using the Grades dropdowns and/or the Schools dropdowns. All grades and schools are selected in the dropdowns, so the Personal Statement tile appears and can be edited on all student profiles. For example, below the On which student profiles does this tile appear? header, if Grades 7 and 8 are selected from the Grades dropdown and School B is selected from the Schools dropdown, the tile will only show on profiles for 7th and 8th grade students in School B.

Edit tile information legends

The information (i) button on each tile allows you to enter custom information for a tile. You can enter custom information for the system, which will show in that tile’s information button for all students in the district. If you would like different text in the information button for students in a specific building, select that building from the dropdown and enter the information you would like to display for students in that building. Any information entered for a building will override the information set for the system. For buildings with no information entered, the system information will show by default.

You can format any information text using the formatting buttons in the toolbar. You can also add hyperlinks, tables, and images.
