Update "Last Activity Led" column in committee rosters to add co-leaders and exclude cancelled trips
Currently, the "Last Activity Led" column in committee rosters on the website only factors in activities where the contact is listed as the Primary Leader, and includes activities that were cancelled.
Please exclude cancelled activities from this calculation, and include activities where the contact is listed as a Primary Leader OR a Co-Leader.

Show member/nonmember status on rosters
For courses/events that generate income, it would be helpful to the committee leadership if we could tell if a registered person is a member or nonmember when we look at the detailed roster. The reason...fee structure is different and we can more easily figure out how much income was generated without having to have staff pull the info for us (when they are already very busy).
It would also be helpful for activity leaders to know who the guests are (so we can talk more about the Mountaineers/other committees and entice them to join).
5 votesOn event and course rosters it is possible to see membership status and who is a guest under the "membership status" column or the ". However, activities do not show this information. Adding this to the activity roster is possible and will be considered for prioritization if 1) it gains additional following or 2) can easily be added to a prioritized roster change request.

Make the Volunteer Hours page visible to all leaders
Similar to how leaders can view any member's activity/course history. This would help leaders get a sense for a member's availability, see what they have or haven't tracked, etc.
1 voteThis has been deprioritized and is moving back to Proposed for now as the task has become larger than originally anticipated.

Show past activities on a route
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!

Simple and Effective Feedback Surveys & Incident Reports
(1) Keep it simple and quick to attract more feedback.
(2) For instance, we could have multi-choice or single-choice questions on page 1 (change it to cover a bigger picture than we do already) and have a conditional page if people wish to add more comments/improvements if they wish to.
(3) Separate the near-miss report and incident report. They serve different purposed and requires attention and follow-up on a different scale.These are my thoughts; hope we can achieve to bring more feedback from participants by making it easy and quick. And also, by creating open culture to encourage near…

Improve Committee-aggregated Feedback Pages
(1) Add a "More Info" or make it so that clicking on the "comment" in feedback takes the user to the "All" feedback page for the activity, course, event, or lodge stay from which that feedback originated.
(2) Add a "Download All | Download Selected" button to the bottom of the page that downloads a spreadsheet file with one sheet/tab for each feedback survey (e.g. Course Feedback, Field Trip, Lecture, Seminar, and Clinic Feedback, Trip Feedback, etc.). Each sheet will have meta data (e.g. title, dates) from the activity, course, event or lodge stay and then the feedback responses in…

Add a trip plan upload and PLB checkbox
Add the ability to upload a "trip plan" to an activity. In addition, we would like a checkbox that indicates if the trip party is planning to carry a PLB. The ability to upload a trip plan is priority #1, and the PLB checkbox is priority #2 (if it is not a lot of additional work).

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

Volunteer (instructor recruitment) request opt in
With mega course rosters for instructor recruitment and other ways we can email people through the website it would be nice for people to have a way of opting in/out of instructor recruitment emails.

Add filters to the My Activities page
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.

Add a Calendar View of the My Activities Page SD411
As a logged in member or guest, allow me choose a calendar view/display of the My Activities page where I can see all of my activities on a calendar and subscribe to an iCal feed of my activities and events so that I can better manage my schedule.
NOTES:
Ideally we'd continue to have one My Activities page and add "buttons" to toggle between the "List" and "Calendar" views, even though they may be two different pages/links.19 votesThis idea is moving to priority.

Add a Cancellation Closing Date to Lodge Stays
Lodges need a minimum number of guests to open and must decide by Thursdays at noon whether to open for the weekend. After this point, the decision is made and to open and funds for food has been committed. But we can often handle more reservations, see we need to be able to keep reservations open longer, but prevent cancellations and refunds from being processed after the go/no go decision point.

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…
