Disciple Tools - Magic Links v1.29.0 Release Notes

What's New

Version 1.29.0 introduces a new feature that makes it easier for your team to create new contacts and groups through magic links!

🎉 New Feature: Create Record Magic Links

What is it?

We've added a new magic link template that creates a simplified app on your D.T home screen for creating new contacts or groups!
THis is best used with the D.T Home Screen plugin.

How it works:

  1. Set up the link: Create a new magic link and choose the "Create Record" template type
  2. Assign to users: Each user gets their own personalized magic link (available in the "Your Apps" section on the user profile)
  3. Home screen app: Users will see a new app tile on their D.T Home Screen for creating records
  4. Simplified creation: Click the app to open a clean, simple form with only the fields you've configured
  5. Always Disciple.Tools: The new records are saved to Disciple Tools and marked as created by that user

Why this is helpful:

  • Simplified interface: Much easier than navigating through the full contact/group creation process
  • Customizable fields: Admins can choose exactly which fields appear on the creation form
  • Quick access: Right on the home screen - no need to hunt through menus
  • Perfect for new users: Great for team members who find the full D.T interface overwhelming
  • Mobile friendly: Clean, simple design that works great on phones and tablets

Getting started:

  1. Go to your WordPress admin dashboard
  2. Click on Extensions (D.T) in the sidebar
  3. Click on Magic Links
  4. Click on the Templates tab
  5. Choose which record type you want to create templates for (Contacts or Groups)
  6. Click New Template
  7. Fill out the template details and choose "Create Record" as the Template Type
  8. Configure the fields: Choose exactly which fields should appear on the simplified creation form
  9. Users will see a new app tile on their User Profile and in the D.T Home Screen for easy record creation!
