| + | How Do I Add the CMS Slack Space<br /><br />If you've lost your Slack configuration on your phone, by accidentally deleting the app, or forgetting the password you used for the CMS instance, or some other factor, you can re-add it following these instructions: |
| + | |
| + | 1. Open Slack on your phone |
| + | |
| + | 2. Open the workspace selection link (in the upper left corner, circled in red):<br /><br /><img alt='Workspace-Selection.jpg' src='%ATTACHURL%/Workspace-Selection.jpg' width='200' /> |
| + | |
| + | 3. You should see a list of all of the workspaces that your associated email address is linked to, like this: |
| + | |
| + | <img alt='Workspace-List.jpg' height='433' src='%ATTACHURL%/Workspace-List.jpg' title='Workspace-List.jpg' width='200' /> |
| + | |
| + | 4. Click on the "Sign In" button next to the CMS workspace. You will see this page: |
| + | |
| + | <img alt='magic-link.jpg' height='433' src='%ATTACHURL%/magic-link.jpg' title='magic-link.jpg' width='200' /> |
| + | |
| + | 5. If you remember your password, you can just click on "Type password", enter your password and you're good to go. If you don't... |
| + | |
| + | 6. Click on the "Send Magic Link" button. You'll see this screen: |
| + | |
| + | <img alt='magic-link-sent.jpg' height='433' src='%ATTACHURL%/magic-link-sent.jpg' title='magic-link-sent.jpg' width='200' /> |
