Filters to add include Activity Type, Trip Result, Participant Role, and Participant Result. This is useful for leaders to review participant activity info for leader's permission requests. It is also useful for helping keep committee rosters up-to-date.

Limiting amount of text for "Featured Authors" on the homepage
On the books homepage (https://www.mountaineers.org/books), some authors will have a lot more text show up on the "Feature Authors" portlet. Can we limit that to only display a maximum of 10 lines (or whatever looks the nicest), perhaps with a "Read More" link to expand the text if needed

Flag and Ask about Employer match in shopping cart for membership and/or donation
Flag and ask about employer match in the shopping cart if it contains a membership or donation amount (mostly like we already do sans employer if a donation amount is specified) and sync that to Salesforce.

Make Activity Template's Activity Type a Multiselect
Right now we have a number of leadership clinics which we are having a hard time reporting on since they are categorized by activity type when really we want them tagged as both the activity like Sea Kayaking AND outdoor leadership

Improve Lodge Stay Cancellation Process - Part 2
As a volunteer admin on an outdoor center committee, allow me to cancel one or more lodge stays for our lodge, so that members and guests will know that it has been canceled (on the website), that those who registered will be notified of the cancellation, and so that staff can issue refunds to those who registered and paid.
The automation for this involve adding a button or link to lodges stays (or lodge stay rosters) so that when canceled (and confirmed with a popup yes/no-style check) that the state of the lodge stay(s) is/are set to "canceled" and all…

Organizations, Online Invoicing & Contracts SD562++
Set up organization in our website so that we can sync them to the existing organizations in SF. This will allow us to connect contacts, activities & courses (Mountain Workshops), events (Program Center Clients) and lodge stays (Outdoor Center Groups & Clients) to them for better tracking. We'll be able to add invoices that the organization contact can pay online, taking advantage of our existing online payment process and Salesforce reporting.

Allow Leaders to Choose Activity Template or Route/Place Image for Activities SD641
When scheduling an activity, allow the leader to choose to use one of the the route/place images, the activity template image, or an image from their local computer.
Notes:
Currently when scheduling a trip (standalone) activity, the one form the route/place is the default and the leader may choose to replace that with one from their computer. For course activities, the default image is from the activity template, and the leader may choose to replace that with one from their computer.
Many of our Routes & Places have an "Images" folder where we store images submitted by our members and…
4 votesHello All!
I wanted to reach out to see what the missing need here is for changing images on activities/courses. I realize this idea is from 2017 so it is very possible that this need has been met already and I just need to update this idea. The website today allows you to change the image of an activity or course from the template/route. For activities, the image can be changed by selecting a picture from your computer under 'Summary'. For courses, a similar option is underneath registration dates. You could then change the image to represent a specific season/boat/etc.
If it is of interest, we could also work together to add additional images/details about each skipper's boat on a separate page.

Lodge-specific Sign-in Sheets (aka Print Rosters) SD648/649/650
For a two-night stay, what we have may be enough, but for longer stays a matrix-style sign-in sheet might be better. Or it may be better if we have a different printable sign-in sheet for each lodge.

Use "Age Group" Radio Buttons Instead of "Age" for Lodge Reservations SD637
Is it better to use radio buttons for the age groups [i.e. one for Adults (age 14+) and another for Youth (age 13-)] when reserving a lodge stay than asking for actual age? What are the pros and cons?
Using radio buttons is better when one person is making a lodge reservation for another and does not know their age. I suspect with will happen a lot, especially for lodge admins who add hosts and other volunteers, as well as people who might bring a friend.

Photo Captions and Credit for Images
Give authors photo credit and add captions to image son our website. Just small text underneath the photo for a brief caption and photographer credit.
16 votesHello All -
I wanted to provide an update on this item! Since this idea was set to 'in-progress' we have been able to fulfill the following:
- Images used in blogs have a caption on them that provides credit to the photographer.
- Images used within the body of web pages are able to give photographers credit through the use of alt text when you hover over the image.
What we are still missing is the ability to give credit for images used in routes/places and on some landing pages. This task ended up being larger than expected and was unable to be completed during the most recent development window. We are changing the status of this idea to 'Priority' instead of 'Complete' so that we can schedule this outstanding step in the future.

Allow Members on Waitlist to sign up for Additional Outings
The system currently does not allow members to sign up for more than one outing. If you are on a waitlist, particularly if you are third or more on that list, I think the system should allow you to also sign up for another trip as backup. It seems unfair to force members to give up a potential spot on their preferred trip only to confirm on less preferred trip simply because of the system. Thank you.

Develop functionality for Activity Programs and Outings/Combos SD154/GH1639
This is functionality would be much like what we have for courses and would be for activity programs like Explorers and Venturing Crew, activity outings like Yosemite Climbing and "combo" activities like Hike & Stewardship and Cathedral Rock & Mount Daniel. We need to be able to group a few activities (and maybe a couple lodge stays) under one "umbrella" Outing and use a "manage registration" style feature to register for them and the Outing as a whole like we do for courses.

Identify activities, courses, and events restricted to a SIG/Branch
Let climb leads be able to hide climbs from the public until they are done getting members from their SIG or branch.
As a basic student its time consuming to see climbs just to sign up or email the climb leader and find out its only for a specific group of people and that I can't be on the climb.

Weekend Activities Filter SD502/503
Add a filter to the activities search so you can find weekend events only.
15 votesHello All -
This item is being moved to in-progress and will be worked on over the next few months as part of our monthly support plan. Once complete, a user will be able to filter activities based on the days of the week. This will accommodate those who want to know weekend events or someone who has a week day that they are most commonly free. Please note, this will not take into account the time of day the activity is, only the day.
