This article has the following sections:

 What is the 'Call To Action'?

The Call To Action box appears by default at the bottom of the overview page with a coloured border. Depending on the activity type, it either provides a link to access the activity questions or, if you have created a call to action activity type, then it's usually used to provide information about how people can respond. 

This article provides instructions on how to edit the text within the Call To Action box for all types of Citizen Space activities. 

Give Us Your Views call to action with Online Survey link.

The call to action heading is blank so you can enter the text that appears here. 

The default link text eg the second line, varies depending on the type of activity:

  • For a form, the default link text simply says 'Complete the form', as shown in the screenshot.
  • For a survey, the link text shows 'Share your views'.
  • For an event registration, it will display 'Reserve your spot'
  • For a call to action activity, there is no link, the Call To Action heading box simply contains text, such as instructions on how people can participate.
