SEO Improvements 2017-18 GHP1 SD587
We engaged Portent, Inc. to review our website from an SEO (Search Engine Optimization, e.g. Google) perspective. They gave us a set of recommendations that involve both technical and content improvements to our website. Overall, this is likely a large project, but will likely be many very small projects that we can accomplish with our monthly support over time.

Program Center Event "Add Activity" Buttons GH3550
Make adding an activity at a Program Center easier by adding buttons on the event details page that appear after the event is published. These buttons will start the activity scheduling process for the appropriate program center route/place using the event start and end dates.

Error Check for Instructor Requirement
Adding error check for adding and editing a course activity where instructors are needed but there is no instructor prerequisite badge will ensure that activities are set up correctly. This will ensure that members and guests who are qualified can register as an instructor and to be sure that only those who are qualified can register to be an instructor.

Merge and Retire Routes & Places SD510 & GH2615
Despite our efforts to merge duplicates before the new website migration and with our new added flexibility for “combo routes,” we need the ability to merge and retire Routes & Places. And be able to do it in a way that does not adversely affect the activities and trip reports to which they are connected and so that our Routes & Places better serve their two primary functions--preventing us from sending two groups to the same place at the same time and being an online guidebook for our members and guests
0 votesWe added retiring Routes & Places, a much smaller improvement development-wise, and no longer need to merge Routes & Places. We need only add some notes to a retired route/place about which one use in its place or if it was retired because we may no longer go there (e.g. trail/road washed out with no plans to repair or rebuild).

Peer to Peer (P2P) Fundraising

Upgrade our Salesforce Nonprofit Stater Pack
The main reasons to upgrade include (1) NPSP2 is no longer supported, (2) the Eventbrite Sync does not work with NPSP2 without manual intervention, and (3) we have a few improvements we’d like that NPSP3 or come natively in NPSP3 and eliminate the need for development to get them.

Hold Space in Registration Process
To prevent member and guests from losing a space after they begin the registration process, we need to hold that space for long enough for them to pay for the course or activity. This will also fix the issue where items have registration end date but remaining in the shopping cart indefinitely.

Improve Skill Badge Assignment for Successful Activity Completion
Allowing leaders to choose which skill badge(s) to assign when closing an activity better support activities where multiple skills are learned and our modularization efforts. Currently it's an "all or none" assignment.

Make Events work on tagging system for all branches GH2284
Right now you can't tag an event to multiple calendars and we want to be able to show some events in multiple branches calendars without having to copy and paste. Please make events work this way rather than the folder system to allow greater flexibility and maintain only rsvp roster.

Add a "Choose Date Range" Option to Lodge Stay Rosters GH2269
Add a "choose date range" option to the lodge stay rosters (e.g. https://www.mountaineers.org/about/locations-reservations/stevens-lodge/lodge-stay-rosters). It would be like the choose dates we have at the top of the My Activities page.
This will allow lodge admins to do a bit of end of season data analysis and recruit lodge guests for work parties.
0 votesWe will work on Salesforce reports and dashboards for outdoor centers to start. Once we have a better handle on what’s needed, we’ll likely roll this into a website committee reporting needs project.

- published
- pending
- private
- shared with committee
- canceled
Add Salesforce workflows for entire lodge stay cancellation ,like we have for paid courses and activities.
This will allow us to cancel an entire lodge stay and notify all registered participants manually.

Group Guests Better on the Lodge Stay Roster Tab GH2225
So that it is clear how many are in a party and who does with who, group the guest together based on the person who registered them. If the person who registered everyone cancels, just show the people they registered that are still going grouped together. See the attached image for a sample of how this would be improved.

Improve the Lodge Reservation Process for Guests GH2207
Start with just the logged in user and an "Add Guest" button (see attached image "1").
Include a "Remove" button for guests and only show new data entry boxes if the "Add Guest" button was clicked (see attached image "2")

Add an Email Button to Lodge Stay Rosters GH2261
Add "Send Email" and "Copy Email Addresses" buttons to the lodges stay rosters so that admins and hosts can email lodge guests more easily. This is what we have for other rosters.
To make this more user-friendly, we also need to group the lodge stay rosters by reservation status (e.g. Reserved, Canceled, etc.).
