Feature Spotlight 

Each month, we’re shining the spotlight on a different feature of the Six Circles platform to guarantee you’re always getting the most out of what we have to offer. This month, we’re focusing on featured content. 

Did you know?

On the Six Circles platform, you can shine a spotlight on certain members or specific content. 

How to use this feature

Within your admin panel (under site settings > homepage), you currently have the ability to shine a spotlight on:

• Featured Members – this allows you to highlight a member of your community for everyone to see and reach out to. Whether it’s celebrating the success of a member or raising awareness of a commercial partner, this tool helps you promote your individual members and inspire new connections
• Featured News – this gives you the opportunity to pin an article that you want all of your community to read. This can be one of your own articles, a quarterly report, the industry latest or even a success story from one of your members
• Featured Promotion – just like the above, this enables you to highlight a promotion/member offer to increase engagement. This could be a job post, an advert or an offer that has been promoted on the platform by one of your members

Featured members, news and promotions will be highlighted in the right-hand column of your main homepage and generic content pages, maximising visibility and driving more engagement.

We’re not stopping there, though. As you’ll have read over the past six months, we’re working tirelessly on improving and redesigning the Six Circles platform. One of the new features set to be released is an adaptation of this featured content tool, renamed the featured tiles section. This’ll become a key part of everyone’s homepage, allowing you to highlight more featured content within your area than ever before!

If you’d like to see a short demonstration on how to make most of these features, contact support@sixcircles.co.uk and your dedicated account manager will be in touch
