    Attachment: SAK-21981.patch

To add a generic channel (ex registrar):

In workspace template, add another "Recent Announcements (sakai.synoptic.announcement)" tool and set tool properties:
-specialSynoptic=true
-channel=/announcement/channel/{SITE_ID}/main
-Name the tool whatever you want to name it and choose "custom title" as a setting

To add dynamic announcements based on a user's property (ex user's school):


In workspace template, add another "Recent Announcements (sakai.synoptic.announcement)" tool and set tool properties:
-specialSynoptic=true
-userProp={property}
-channel=
-Name the tool whatever you want to name it and choose "custom title" as a setting

then set sakai.properties like (note, prop.value should have all spaces taken out of it in the sakai.property):

sakai.announcement.{prop_key}.{prop.value}=/announcement/channel/{SITE_ID}/main


sakai.property example for property "school" and value "School Of Science":

sakai.announcement.school.SchoolOfScience=/announcement/channel/2e63a98b-edb3-4295-894d-824a23c25bb1/main
