For Admins- How To Use "Hub Settings"


To manage the settings of a Hub, an Admin can click on the “Settings Gear”  icon, in the top right of the page. 

By clicking the “Settings Gear”, the Admin can manage the following settings: 

  • Options
  • My Preferences
  • Rally Features
  • Manage Payments
  • Manage Categories
  • Archive or Delete

Details of each are on the following pages.



The “Options” section is available only to  Admins. In this section, Admins can edit the following elements:

  • The Banner image.
  • The Name for the Hub or Rally.
  • The Rally Cry or description.
  • A  Default Invitation Message that will be a part of the invitation sent to  members who are invited to join the Hub or Rally.


In the “Options” section, Admins can adjust the Membership Settings:

  • Public makes the Hub searchable and viewable by anyone in Rallyhood and any Rallyhood user can join the Hub.
  • Private makes it searchable but users must be invited or submit a request to join.
  • Unlisted makes the Hub hidden from searches and all members have to be directly sent an invitation by an Admin.

“Notify Immediately” allows the Hub Admin to choose whether all Hub members or only Hub Admins can designate a post to be sent as an immediate email and a push notification via the Rallyhood app. 

Users can choose whether to receive Notify Immediately alerts by turning that option on or off in their user Dashboard in My Settings.


Click “Save Changes."


My Preferences”  section is available to all Hub Members.  

  • Users can choose to include the Hub in their Daily Digest. 
  • Users can quickly leave a Hub by clicking “Remove Me From This Rally.”

Hub Admins can adjust the following “Hub Features” for the Hub: 

  • Turn Features “On” & “Off” in the Hub navigation menu 
  • Groups: View all Rallies under the Hub
  • Message Wall: View, create, and interact with Message posts
  • Calendar: View and create Quick Events and Special Events 
  • Special Events: View, create, and edit Special Events
  • Gallery: Upload photos and create albums 
  • Files: Upload files and create folders
  • Links: Add URL links and create boards
  • Sign-Ups: Create and  share sign-ups
  • Friends: View Member Profiles and send Private Messages
  • Payments: Sell and purchase items with Stripe
  • Give: Create and contribute to fundraisers using Stripe

Click “Save Changes.”



The “Rally Features” section is where Admins can manage feature permission settings for the Hub.

If the permission setting is in blue font, Hub Admins can click on it to: 

  • Set Feature Permissions:
    • Public
    • All Members
    • Read Only
  • Customize each Feature:
    • Change the “Label” and “Icon” of that feature for the Hub navigation menu
  • Set Permissions:
    • All Members may post here
    • All members may view, but only admin may post here 

Click “Save.”

*Making changes to the label, icon, and permissions at the Hub level will also make those changes to every Rally under that Hub umbrella.

To the right of the Feature Permissions, click the “Move” plus icon to drag and drop to reorder the features on the Hub navigation menu – top to bottom in this view equates as left to right in the Rally’s navigation menu. 



All members can click on “Manage Payments” to add their Stripe Account to utilize in the Special Events, Payments, and Give features.

“Manage Categories” is only accessible by Hub Admins. Here the Admin can create and manage categories. When creating a new Rally in the Hub, the Rally can be assigned to a category for disseminating information to specific groups.



Hub Admins can “Archive or Delete” a Hub. 

  • “Archive:” The Hub will no longer be accessible by any members. Only Admins will be able to restore it.
  • “Delete:” The Hub and all content will be permanently removed. This can not be undone.
