When we perform a search on mb.org using contributor names, currently only "by" works. We'd like to make it so that searches for all contributors (photos by, epilogue by, etc. etc.) also works in search.

The new Daily alert feature is nice, but it would be more helpful if it displayed the day of the week in the message. Most people are available only on certain days.

As a site user, allow me to choose to get an email the day before an activity, course or event opens so that I get a reminder to register for an activity or course for which I plan to register.

It would be ideal to add a checkbox along with "Send me an email reminder the day before this opens for registration." to the registration portlet where the the opening date is displayed. We're currently thinking a new role on the roster may be the best way to accomplish this.

Leaders add participation notes to a student's profile if they fail to pass a critical skill and need reevaluation before they can register for a climb. We need to be able to update the participation note to include information when they do pass the skill, but this means we can't close the activity until all students have passed, unless we contact the program center to reopen. It would be nice if we could update participation notes.

An idea we had some time ago was creating an Awards tab, much like "Descriptions" "Reviews" "Video" -- but at the time we decided against it because we thought it would be best to highlight it in the Description field anyways.

But now that the feed to our 3rd parties are being more restrictive on the level of HTML we can have, the above argument against holds a lot less ground.

When looking at a route, you can see future activities as well as trip reports. I'd like to see a list of past activities, along with their completion status and leader name (whether they posted a trip report or not).
This would make it easier to contact past trip leaders to ask them about conditions, etc. as well as to get a sense of when people typically use the route.

Thanks!

Improve how a member’s preferences are displayed on the bottom of their My Profile page and to minimize confusion on where and how to change (edit) them.

Notes:
- Don't show checkboxes or data entry boxes with their “values,” because it makes them look editable.
- Remove help text, so that essentially only the field labels and their values are displayed and so that the view is more compact.

• Add a Next Available Date to the Book content type.


• Add it to the Acumen-Plone nightly sync: InvProduct.NextRelease_Date


• Sync it to Salesforce: Product.NextAvailableDate__c


• Replace now hidden "Out of stock" text with: For pre-orders: "This book has not yet been released and will be available {Publication Date}."


• For backorder: "This book is currently out-of-stock. We will have it back in stock by next available date."


• Use it for "your credit card is about to expire" pre-order/backorder email alerts

For the "Branches" field change it so that leaving it blank is the same as having selected all of the branches in the list.

Change the help text for Branches to: With these branches... (leave blank to choose all branches)

Change the help text for Activities to: Of these types... (choose at least one to get notifications)

As a website visitor pre-ordering or backordering a a book, allow me to enter a quantity that is applied when I click the "pre-order" or "backorder" button, and allow me to change this on the payment page, so that I may pre- or backorder more than one copy of a book at a time.

As a website visitor pre-ordering or backordering a book, allow me to enter a promo code on the payment page, so that I can receive a discount if one is offered. And display the automatically applied promo code the member discount.

As a website visitor, show me a list of content types next to the search box in the universal header so that I may choose the type of content and my search terms in one go.

Notes:
- If viewing the Program global header, default this to "All."
- If viewing the Books global header, default this to "Book."

In some cases, we have a contributor who has one role on one book and another role on another book (e.g. "by" and "Foreword by"). In these cases we end up with multiple contact records for the same contributor. In Plone, we have this covered with the "member," "book," and "book roster." In Acumen, we need to be sure that we have only one contributor record and use the "override role" field when their contribution is different from their primary role.

Wildlife photography especially is effective at stretching newcomers to the outdoors beyond climbing and running.

When trips are co-led by two leaders who report to different branches and committees please can both sponsor and share credit?

When an person registers for or is registered for an activity as an Instructor, in addition to adding them to the course's team roster (if part of a course), add them as an Instructor to the sponsoring Committee's team roster as an instructor or check their instructor box if they are already on the Committee's team roster and their Instructor box is not already checked.
