Feature Desks
Updated
by Katy Harrison
Feature Desks are standard Desks that can be used as a starting off point for setting up MyWorkplace for your organisation.
You can copy Feature Desks into Private, Public or Group Desks, and then adapt them by adding and removing Applets and editing the existing Applets to add your own links and content.
Copying Feature Desks
- Head to the Feature Desk that you want to copy. Select the More menu at the top right of the Desk, then click on Copy Desk.
- Change the Desk properties such as the name, subtitle and description.
- Choose the type of Desk you want to create.
If you choose a group Desk, you will need to assign the Desk to an existing group, so you might need to create a group before copying the Desk.
Click Save to create the new Desk.
You can now edit the existing Applets to adjust them to best fit your organisation, remove any Applets you don't need, and you can add more Applets to the Desk.
Once you've set up some custom Desks for your organisation, you might want to hide the original Feature Desks. You can do this in 2 quick steps.
Hiding Feature Desks
- Locate the Desk on your Desks sidebar, clicking on the 3 dots 'more' option, then clicking 'Hide desk'.
- You'll see a warning pop-up advising that the Desk will be hidden for all non-admin users. Click 'Hide' to complete the action.
The Desk will now be hidden for all users. You can verify this by the 'hidden' symbol next to the Desk name.
Admin users will still see hidden Feature Desks in their Desks sidebar, and you can unhide the Desk at any time by reversing the steps.
Showing hidden Feature Desks
- Go to the 3 dots 'more' option again, then selecting 'Show desk'.
- You'll see another pop-up message, select 'Show' to show the desk again.
