3.6. Settings Setup and Management

Updated 11.05.18

SuperQuick video instructions:

Your Settings feature contains information about you.  Some (but not all) of this information flows to the other features associated with your membership.  Information should be entered the way you'd like your contacts and/or prospects to see it.

First, some Notes on Settings Management:

If fields within your Settings feature are not active even after clicking on them, or are not visible to you at all, it may not be possible for you to change the desired information through your NewPanda tools.  In these cases, changes to your Settings information must be made through your organization's Marketing Department and we'll get the updates through a data feed process.

Contact Us to see if your corporation provides Settings information via data feed.

There are six tabs within your Settings feature:  

  1. Display Info: Your name, organization, designations and slogan 
  2. Contact Info: Your email address, website address, business address, and telephone number
  3. Images: Your primary image, and optional association or corporate logo
  4. Account Info: Your username, password, and optional Corporate ID (also called a BAID) if your membership is sponsored by one of our Enterprise partners.  If your records are matched via a datafeed, this may be required.  For security reasons, your password doesn't display in the password field. You only need to enter it if you're assigning a new password. 
  5. Social Networks: Links to your Social Networking apps, and apps you want to update through your NewPanda tools. 
  6. Billing: Depending on your account, you'll see this option and related options.  

To manage your Settings:

1. Login to NewPanda

2. Select Settings in the upper right corner of your screen.

A. Display Info

Be sure to click the Save button at the bottom of the Display Info tab to save your changes.

 

B. Contact Info

Your Contact information will display on some messages you send through NewPanda.  Be sure to use the email address and physical address you want shown in your profile seen by the public.

  1. Enter your desired Email Address, or modify as needed.  IMPORTANT: USE ONLY a corporate or private domain email address with NewPanda.  Many free Email Service Providers like AOL, Yahoo, Gmail, etc., no longer allow use of 3rd party apps like NewPanda for message sending when the FROM email address is from their domain.  Learn more
    1. The information contained in this field is used by NewPanda to send you important notifications and updates, Login info, Mailing Labels, etc., via email. 
    2. It is also the email address to which communications are sent by consumers using the Contact Me icon links from your outbound eMessages, or on your NewPanda Web Site (if your membership includes this feature).  
    3. Do not enter multiple email addresses into your Email Address field since our system recognizes all contents of it as a single email address.  Your email (Contact Me) icon looks like this on your eMessages and/or eNewsletters:  
    4. Click here for more information on how your "From" email address appears in recipient emails.
  2. Enter your entire Website Address (including http://), or modify as needed. The information contained in this field is the web site to which consumers clicking the Visit My Web Site link in your eCommunications are directed. Your Visit My Website icon looks like this on your eMessages and/or eNewsletters: 
  3. Enter or modify your Primary business telephone number, Fax and Mobile phone fields as needed. The information contained in some of these fields will appear on your eMessages, to the fields available in the templates of each.  Not all contact numbers will display in all templates, but the generic PHONE field will appear on most.  For example, your Fax and mobile number will not automatically appear on eMessages sent from our system unless you physically add it. If your mobile number is your primary contact phone number, add it to the (generic) PHONE field.
  4. Enter or modify your Business Street Address, City, State, and ZIP information as needed.  The information contained in these fields will appear on SOME of your Print On Demand Templates, as well as on your Web Site (as these features are availabe through your membership level).  
  5. Click the Save button at the bottom of the Contact Info tab to save your changes.

Why do your email, web site, and social network addresses appear as icons?  So your recipients can contact or connect with you in one click! This also eliminates the possibility of your recipients jotting down or typing your email address or link incorrectly, and being unable to contact or connect with you when they need to.

C. Images

  1. Primary Image: This image will appear on your eCommunications, Print On Demand templates, and Web Site (if your membership includes these features).  If available, a marketing photo may have been provided to NewPanda already.  To add or change your Primary Image, click the Browse button to locate the .JPG, .PNG or .GIF ONLY image of your choice (minimum size: 120 pixels wide - recommended size 120 pixels wide x 175 pixels tall) for upload.  Double-click on the image or choose the "Open" command and follow prompts to upload the file.  Click the Upload Image button to complete the process if required.
  2. Additional Brand Image:  If your membership does not contain a default corporate image, you may upload one by using the Additional Brand Image field.  This image will appear on your eCommunications, Print On Demand templates, and NewPanda Web Site.  To upload a Brand Image, click the Browse button to locate the .JPG or .GIF ONLY image of your choice (recommended size 175 x 175 pixels) for upload.  Double-click on the image or choose the "Open" command and follow prompts to upload the file.  Click the Upload Image button to complete the process if required.  You may remove your Brand Image at any time by clicking the Delete Brand Image button.
  3. Click the Save button at the  bottom of the Images tab to save your changes.
