Following and Unfollowing Groups

How to follow and unfollow groups (for email and text messaging updates)

Written by Andrew Peterson

Following Groups and Events in Tandem

If you want to stay informed about changes to specific groups or events, you can set yourself up as a follower. Followers receive email (and, if enabled, text) updates whenever new events are added or existing events are updated.


Notification Thresholds

To prevent inbox overload, Tandem uses thresholds before sending notifications:

  • New Events – Must occur within the next 30 days.

  • Edited Events – Must occur within the next 90 days.

Only events meeting these thresholds will trigger messages to followers.


How to Follow

  1. From an Event Details Page

    • Click the Follow link next to the group.

  2. From the Dashboard

    • Open the navigation area and click the gear icon.

    • Use the Search and Browse tools to find groups (or other items) you’d like to follow.


What You Can Follow

In addition to groups, you can also follow:

  • Key Date calendars

  • All events

  • Entire schools

  • Facilities

  • Pages

  • Equipment (if you are a member of the organization)


Managing Your Follows

  • To stop receiving updates, unfollow the group or item from your Dashboard.

  • Be sure to click the Update button at the bottom of the page to save your changes.
