Building your own canvassing app might sound a bit daunting, but Ecanvasser users are in for a treat!

Real Time Change

To help campaign managers and organizers become brilliant out in the field, we have recently updated our dashboard to help you visualize what your mobile app will look like even before your download it.

Customize your canvassing app to make sure it looks and feels exactly how you want it to and watch it change in real time.

This cool feature can now be found under the "Customize" tab on your dashboard. We want to make it easier for managers to prioritize the fields that canvassers need to see when they are out in the field doing door to door outreach.

It takes the stress out of the canvassing and canvassers become more confident and reach their milestones with ease as a result.

Build A Better Team

Use the "Preview as" feature to visualize how your app will appear for the various roles within your team. This is especially useful, for example, when voter data security is important to you, and you want to restrict "edit", "add" or "delete" access to specific roles. We have conveniently moved the Permissions Settings to this same page, so now you can change configure the role based permission settings and confirm this change instantaneously in the app preview

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.
