OA LodgeMaster Users,

The OA LodgeMaster Team is excited to announce the immediate release of version 4.5.1! This release includes 25 improvements and corrects 82 bugs. The release also includes 3 new major features - the final pieces of the induction module and all related automated emails, member portal features for new members and brotherhood candidates, and the full release of the member portal for use by all members including membership cards and email unsubscribe links. For lodges who requested offline access, this version includes an update to the offline Lodge Client. 

Inductions Module

• All automated emails within the Inductions Module have now been enabled. As part of this release, we enabled the New Member Follow-up Message, Brotherhood Eligible Message, and Brotherhood Preparation Message. Details of these emails can be found here.

Member Portal

• Added a New Member Journey and Brotherhood Journey to the member portal for candidates. The New Member Journey will automatically be available for new Ordeal members who have completed their Ordeal and are not yet eligible to complete their Brotherhood. New members eligible to complete their Brotherhood will see the new Brotherhood Journey. Lodges can add custom steps to the New Member and Brotherhood Journeys from Inductions Setup. The existing content from JumpStart has been included in the new journeys.
• For Brotherhood eligible candidates the member portal will promote upcoming events where brotherhood is being offered. Brotherhood candidates will see details of the event and a link to register.
• Digital membership cards! We have added digital membership cards to the member portal for all Arrowmen. Visit the Update Your Profile page to download your membership card!
• In addition to membership cards, we have added additional profile information to the member portal. Arrowmen can now see their current dues status, unit and chapter information, and their level information.
• Email unsubscribe links! Arrowmen can now unsubscribe from lodge emails on their own with a link included in the footer of every email. Lodge Administrators will no longer need to manually unsubscribe Arrowmen from emails.
• A new bulk invite function has been added to the member grid to allow lodge administrators to bulk invite their members to the member portal.

Yours in Brotherhood,
