Use the Home Tabs screen to build the Home screen of your company’s mobile app. Each home page has tabs across the top and widgets on each tab, and access rules decide which members see it. Share Tabs and Shop Tabs use the same editor, and Navigation sets up the app’s bottom bar. For how reps use the app, see Mobile app.

Where to find it

In the admin sidebar, under Mobile App, select Home Tabs.
To open this screen and the page editor, your role needs View only or Full access for Mobile Pages. With View only, pages open in the editor without a Save button, and the list has no actions menu. To create, edit, duplicate, set the default or delete pages, it needs Full access. On the Roles screen, Mobile Pages is in the Content & Website card. Open the card and set access from the Mobile Pages area’s menu, not the card’s.

What’s on the screen

New Page and Advanced Search are above the list of your company’s home pages. The list always includes your default page, marked Default. Members who match no other active page see it.

Pages list

  • The All, Active and Inactive tabs filter the list by status.
  • Use the search box to find a page by name.
  • The sort button sorts by Name or Status.
Columns:
  • Name and Status (Active or Inactive). Members only see active pages.
  • Visibility: how many members see the page in the app now.
  • Tabs: how many tabs the page has.
  • Country, Language, Rank and Member Type: the page’s access rules, with countries as flags. All means no rule of that kind. Not in navigation for: under Member Type means a navigation hides the Home screen from the members it names.
Click a page to open it in the editor. Each row’s actions menu has Edit, Duplicate, Set default and Delete. The default page’s menu has only Edit and Duplicate. Advanced Search shows which home page a member sees. On Search by User, find an active rep by name, email or phone, and select them. On Search by Rules, choose a Country and a Language, and a Rank if you want.

The page editor

The editor’s top bar has a close button (X), the title Mobile Home Page Editor, a settings (gear) button, Preview and Save. Below are the Tabs sidebar and the widget drawer on the left, a phone preview of the selected tab in the middle, and the Settings panel on the right.

Tabs

The Tabs sidebar has two sections:
  • Main Tabs: the tabs across the top of the screen, left to right in the app. A page has one to eight.
  • Not Linked: tabs that aren’t across the top. Members open them from a widget. See Link a widget to a tab.
The tab you’re editing has a Selected badge.
  • To add a tab, click + next to a section, then Create Tab or Create Embed Tab. The new tab is named Tab # and a number.
  • To rename a tab, hover over it, click the pencil, type up to 15 characters and press Enter.
  • To reorder tabs, or move one to the other section, drag it by its handle.
  • To delete a tab, hover over it, click the trash icon, then click Delete.
You can’t move or delete the last main tab. Tab changes take effect when you save the page.

Embed tabs

An embed tab, marked with a braces icon, shows one web page across the whole tab. When it’s selected, the Embed settings panel replaces Settings: enter the page’s address in Embed URL. It must start with https:// or http://. Some sites can’t be previewed in the editor, so save and check the app. To get back to the page’s Settings, select another tab.

Settings and access rules

With no widget selected, the right panel shows Settings. Close it with its X; the gear button opens it again.
  • Publish: when it’s on, the page is active. The default page has no Publish switch; it’s always active.
  • Page Name: required.
  • Access Rules: pick one or more values in Rank, Country, Language and Member Type. The default page can’t have access rules.
After you turn on Publish, or change a rule while it’s on, a message names any other active home page with exactly the same access rules. Saving this page while it’s published unpublishes that page. How Fluid chooses each member’s page:
  • A member can see an active page if they match every kind of rule on it. Within a kind, one matching value is enough.
  • A page without access rules reaches no one, unless it’s the default page.
  • If a member matches more than one page, a Language rule counts most, then Country, then Rank, then Member Type.
  • Members who match no other active page see the default page.

Widgets

The widget drawer, below the tabs, lists the widgets you can add, with a search box. Drag a widget into the preview. A widget that comes in more than one size shows a preview of each size. Your company’s own widgets, if it has any, are listed first, under My Widgets. Click a widget in the preview to open its settings, then click Done to go back or Delete to remove it. Some widgets, such as Calendar and Catchup, have no settings. Some widgets work differently:
  • Unordered List, Ordered List and Carousel show only Powered By at first. Choose Custom to pick the items yourself, or a listed section for Fluid to fill the widget. For a section, also choose the Number of Items to Display. The other settings then appear.
  • In Split Row, each half takes the small size of Analytics, Calendar, Catchup, Image, Recent Activity, To-Do List, Quote, Leaderboard or Get Started.

Preview and save

Preview shows a QR code to scan with an iOS device to see the page live, and Copy Preview Link. Save stays grayed out until you change something.
Closing the editor doesn’t save your changes. Click Save first.

Tasks

Create a page

1

Start a new page

Click New Page. Fluid creates an inactive page named after you, such as Alex’s Page #42, and opens it in the editor. It has one main tab, Home, with a MySite widget.
2

Set it up

In Settings, change the Page Name and add access rules. Then add tabs and widgets.
3

Publish and save

Turn on Publish when the page is ready for members, then click Save.
The new page stays in the list even if you close the editor without saving.
1

Open the item's settings

In the preview, click an Image, Nested Unordered List, Unordered List, Ordered List or Carousel widget. For a list or carousel, open the item you want to link from the widget’s settings.
2

Choose a tab link

Under Link Type (Button Type for a list or carousel item), click the last icon, a smartphone. For a carousel item, turn on Button first. A Nested Unordered List shows Link Tab without this step.
3

Pick the tab

In Link Tab, choose one of the page’s other tabs, including Not Linked ones. Below Powered By and the Fluid logo, you can instead choose Products, Enrollments, Media, Pages, Uploads or Playlists.
4

Save

Click Save.

Duplicate, set the default or delete a page

From the page’s actions menu in the list:
  • Duplicate creates an inactive copy named after the page, with (Copy) added. The copy has the same tabs but no access rules.
  • Set default opens Set Default Page?. Click Confirm. The page becomes the active default page and loses its access rules. The previous default page becomes inactive.
  • Delete opens Delete Page?. Click Delete. You can’t undo this, and you can’t delete the default page.

Frequently asked questions

Check that the page is Active and has at least one access rule, and that the members match every kind of rule on it. Saving another active page with exactly the same rules unpublishes this one. A member who matches several pages sees only one; see Settings and access rules.If the Member Type column shows Not in navigation for:, a navigation hides the Home screen from those members. See Navigation.
