Because Gather is a fully-integrated, all-in-one solution, it is easy to publish a case directly to your website. Once your case is published, everything is perfectly Nsync, meaning any changes on the Case Management side (obituary text, event dates, event times, the spelling of a name, etc.) will be instantly reflected on your Website without having to do anything.

You will notice a world icon on the top-left of the Organize page. To publish, simply click the toggle to the "Published" position-- it's that easy.

Once you publish the case, you will notice that the popper menu changes to the following state, allowing you to unpublish the case in just a single click.

You can publish and unpublish a case by clicking the three-dot menu on the top-right of the case card on your DashBoard. Publishing adds a thin green border around the case card and the publish status appears directly under the case card.

Publishing a case adds an obituary case card to your website as shown below. It also adds the case to your dedicated obituary page. Unpublishing removes the case.

Making the obituary text display on the Remember page is a separate process. To make the obituary text appear on the Remember page, you must first complete the obituary task.

There are a few simple things you can do when publishing a case to create an even better experience for your families. The better the experience, the more likely families will be to share the Remember page with others, which will create an even larger community for your funeral home.

Adding a cover photo helps create an immersive experience that makes the Remember Page feel custom to each family. To add this, simply click on the "Edit" button on the top-right of the Remember page and you will be prompted to add a desktop cover photo and a mobile cover photo. Adding two images ensures that the page looks good on any device.

We've also created a custom task for cover photos that can be assigned to family members:

Any events added via the Case Management side will automatically show on the Remember page. This helps ensure that families know important details about each event.

🔒 NOTE: You can specify events as Invite Only which will make it so that only invite helpers can view the event.

🕐 NOTE: Each user who comes to the Remember page will see the event time in their local timezone. A three-digit timezone will always be shown to avoid confusion.

You can display the Service Details directly on the Remember page. This creates a nice keepsake for the family while also helping to inform those who aren't able to attend the services. There is an interactive task that can be used to fill out this information. Similar to the obituary task, the "Service Details" task must also be completed before it will show on the Remember page.

You can also display the designated casket bearers directly on the Remember page by filling out and completing the "Specify Casket Bearers" task.

By clicking on the settings icon on the top-right of the Remember page, you have access to the following customizations.

Yes, we have an increasing number of themes from which you can select. Each one changes the look and feel of the Remember page so that it feels custom to each family. A theme can be selected by clicking on the top-right settings icon and then navigating to the "Theme" tab.

You have two options for helping families pay for services via your Gather website:

By building out the page as described above, families are more likely to want to share the page with others. Here are a few additional suggestions to help you build an even larger community:

Each Gather Remember page comes with a custom QR code that can help create a unique experience for families by linking something physical back to their loved one's Remember page. To access the QR code, click on the first QR code icon in the row of social icons or click the top-right settings icon and navigate to the "QR Code" tab.

Here are a few ideas for how to leverage this technology to help your families:

At the bottom of the Remember page, you have the option to capture a photo of the flowers that were sent to the services and the corresponding card for each flower. This is a nice gesture that families will appreciate. Simply click the "Upload Gift Photo" from Gather on your mobile device and snap a photo of the flowers and the card.

Gather offers an all-in-one, integrated LiveStream solution that can be automatically added to the top of each Remember page. You simply click a toggle when scheduling an event and the stream indicator will automatically be added to your Remember page where you can quickly start the stream at the designated time. Families don't need to download anything and the recording will be automatically uploaded, hosted, and stored for the family to come back to year after year.
