  2. What's the best way to trigger membership renewal emails
    Christen Wall (Broad Ripple Alliance for Progress)

    Reminding your members that they, you know, should pay for all your great benefits, needs to be simple. Here's a few approaches to automating the generally time-consuming process of reminding your members to pay their recurring dues.

  3. Alternative to the Salesforce1 mobile app?
    Hannah Sobel (Community Servings Inc)

  4. Sequencing and Process Builder
    Michael Kolodner (Spark Program)

    Process Builder brings so much control to admins, except for one area: time. Now, once that happens, obviously we'll have time travel solved, so that will be nice. Until then, here's some thoughts on stringing together events on a Process Builder process.

  5. Contact Merge problem after NPSP version 3.71 upgrade
    Diane Gonthier (Bicycle Transportation Alliance)

    So rare is the occasion that we've seen bugs in the NPSP between releases that, well, I can't remember the last time it happened. I've been told that the NPSP development crew are humans, but I still don't believe it. If you have a "Deceased__c" field on your Salesforce account, you might be seeing this issue...which will be resolved very soon!
