Enable or Disable Topics

Within the Topic Settings, use the toggle switch to turn Topics on or off.

⚠️ Note: This setting applies to the entire school or childcare organization.

Use Read Indicators

You can choose whether to enable read indicators:

• In the Kwieb app, parents will see blue check marks if a message has been delivered and read.
• In Ziber Team, team members will always see whether a parent has read the message.

Require a Message Subject (Reason)

To keep messages focused and concise, you can require parents to select a reason when starting a Topic.

• This helps teachers and staff maintain clear and organized conversations.
• You can define a list of preset reasons that parents must choose from when creating a new Topic.
