The Ecanvasser team have been working tirelessly over the last couple of months making the changes that you wanted to see. To that end we are delighted to announce the arrival of Custom Fields to allow you to import richer data about your voters.

In keeping with the Ecanvasser ethos there are no limits on the customized fields you can import and there are no limits on the new fields you can input while out on canvass. Richer data about voters allows you to understand these voters better and gives you the opportunity to create smarter segments for retargeting.

Our new update will allow for 4 different types of Custom Fields

  • Text
  • Number
  • True/ False
  • Multiple Choice

All these fields will then sync to the mobile app. You can also add Custom Fields through the app if you find you want to add extra information. The update is designed to give you flexibility and control in managing your voters.

If you have any questions about Custom Fields or you would like a demo of the updated Ecanvasser product get in touch here.

Listening to our current users,  we are aware that there can be an internal struggle of team management when it comes to organizing quickly. To get people out on doors, the back and forth over Whatsapp, Messenger, and (insert other apps here) can be endless. We aim to streamline this process for you with Ecanvasser. Now organizers can commit via the Walk app (their canvassing app!) and get notified in the run-up to the event so that they don’t forget. By building it into the door knocking process life has gotten a lot easier for campaign managers.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
