FAQ - What are replacement tags?

In your MySchool system, various templates and information fields use adaptive naming tags to pull information from the student, user or different system fields.

Whenever, you see a rich text bar, with the bracket symbol or the word replacement tags. You can only add a tag according to the parameters in the drop-down list.

It is important not to remove the [[Square_brackets]] or change the format between the brackets.

Top tip: Don't forget to add a space after adding a tag to a message, you can format the tag as well with bold or underline if needed.
