Make names on roster open their profile so you can view all badges, activities and course history GH1490
When I click on participants names in the roster it only shows their
basic profile data. When I click on names in the roster I'm doing it to
see their recent activities and how much they have done recently. So I
have to instead copy and past their name into the search button. Its
time consuming doing this for a whole roster of names. Clicking the
names in the roster should take you right to the profile screen where
you can click someone's activities.1 vote -
Show leader permission required even if registration isn't open GH1498
Show if leader permission is required on the activity page before registration opens. Currently if registration is not open yet, the activity page says when registration will open but does not mention if leader permission is required or not. It's frustrating to wait until the day registration opens and then discover that you need to have emailed the leader first.
0 votesLeader permission now shows before registration is open so you can be prepared to email the leader.

Add "Slider Images" to Branch Home Pages SD385
Allow branch admins to add images to their branch 's page that will be "slider images" similar to the main mountaineers.org home page. They will be images only (no special text, boxes or links).
Some thought this was part of the branch home page design, but that was not perfectly clear in specification.

Import Very Old Activity History SD407
We imported all history from 2003 onward, because the format of our former database fit the model of our new database fairly well. We do have history from the early 1990's to 2003 that was imported from our first database to our former database. However, it is just a list (titles and dates) on people's records with no link to an activity record. It will take some effort to import and display this info.

Save Credit Card Info for Purchases SD328
Allow members and guests to save credit card info when checking out and use saved credit card info to pay when checking out. We should allow multiple cards, choice of which one to use when checking out, ability to update (usually expiration date and CCV), remove, or add from the Shopping Cart. Allow the user to update, remove and add credit card info from their My Profile area too. We need to consider the implications to the recurring payments (automatic annual dues and monthly donations) too.

Install Step-Up Engagemant App SD416
StepUp is Percolator Consulting's engagement app for Salesforce, our CRM (Customer Relationship Management database).
It adds functionality to our Salesforce to create the ability to measure the engagement levels of our guests, members, and volunteers. This Percolator-designed Salesforce App allows you to assign an engagement score related to actions taken with our organization, and then roll all of those scores up into one master "engagement score". We can use this to identify potential donors, volunteers, and to single out guests who might be the most interested in converting to a member.

Replace Book References and Retire Old Editions SD373
As a site administrator, I need to be able to replace references to an old edition of a book with a new edition in content items like Activities, Activity Templates, Courses, Course Templates, and Routes & Places.
Allows customers who purchased an earlier edition to see info about that while ensuring that from now on, everyone purcahses the new edition of the book, because it is showh in the shop and on all details pages with "recommended reading."

Add Title Choices to Routes & Places for Use with Activities GH1476
To make it easier to better title activities where the route place has broadly varying options and alternatives, provide a list of alternate location names that may be used.
Specifically, when scheduling an activity allow the leader to choose an alternate title from an "Alternate Route/Place Title" list that is populated from a route/place "Route/Place Titles for Activity Titles" list.
Here's an example:
For a scramble of "Silver, Tinkham & Abiel Peaks," https://www.mountaineers.org/explore/routes-places/silver-tinkham-abiel-peaks, the activity title currently is and by default after implementing this idea would be:
Alpine Scramble - Silver, Tinkham & Abiel Peaks
Alternate activity titles with…
32 votesWe now have the ability to have alternate titles for routes/places that have a couple different destinations but all use the same access and thus we wouldn’t want two different Mountaineers groups there on the same day.
An example is Snow & Gem Lakes. This trip can now simply be titled Gem Lake or Snow & Gem Lakes. Or if you are only climbing Tinkham and Silver Peaks you can now pick just those two peaks even though the listing has Silver, Abiel & Tinkham Peaks.
The ability to switch to an alternate title is in the Route/Place tab when you are in the activity edit form while scheduling or editing an activity. It’s the same place you’d edit the date or choose a new route/place for the activity.
Please note that this alternate title is not supposed to replace the summary. For example the title is not Gem Lake…

"My Activities" should be visible on the landing page after the login
I'm internet savvy but didn't discover "My Activities" and other menu items that are currently hidden behind the login name, until recently.
Make the site intuitive like http://www.Meetup.com. It shouldn't require training.1 voteThanks for the suggestion. The “My Activities” is in the profile menu in the upper right section of our website’s header per website best practices. Unfortunately, there’s just not room to expand all of the items in the profile menu to the header. The My Profile menu will have a bit more prominence in our mobile design, so when you’re using a smart phone or tablet the My Profile menu will be a bit easier to find.
