Move the "Apply" button ABOVE the "I have filled out the application" checkbox.
This is comparatively minor, but if a course has an application, an "apply" button shows up. The button appears after the text "I have filled out the application and received approval to register". (I am familiar with this for a Course application for Single Pitch; I'm not sure if it's in other places too)
Placing this in front of the checkbox is confusing: the checkbox is typically directly above, and used to trigger the "register" button. I swear I stared at that page for ten minutes searching for an apply button and entirely missed it.
Consider moving "APPLY" above the…

Only Allow Stewardship Committees to Post Stewardship Trips
Currently any committee leader can post a stewardship trip. Now that we have new stewardship standards that states stewardship trips must be posted by committees that are chartered to sponsor stewardship, can we update the website so that only leaders on stewardship committees can post stewardship trips.
At this time, any leader of any committee can post any type of trip but we see more instances of non-Stewardship chartered committee leaders, posting stewardship trips that do not align with stewardship standards.

Call-out when a Course Roster change was after registration in notifications
Currently, the course registration open and close dates are only stored on the website and not in Salesforce. This means we are unable to use this information to inform leaders/coleaders when an activity roster change happened AFTER registration closes.
If we stored this in Salesforce, we would be able to change the email notification to make this clearer to leaders.

Enable two committees (hiking and uran walks as an example) to jointly sponsor or offer a course, seminar, clinic or activity.
Enable the option of having multiple committees able to offer a course, seminar, clinic, event or activity. It would involve being able to use a template that includes both committees collaborating on a joint offering.

Block members from seeing my profile
Similar to facebook, allow a member to block other members from seeing their profile or activities. This includes blocking:
- access to profile
- visibility of name on rosters
- visibility of trips/events/activities where the person is the primary leaderThis should override leader privileges (and possibly staff privileges)

Customizing Branch-Specific Blog Ribbons
Create a feature that allows branches to have more customization privileges over their branch-specific blog ribbon. Often, staff-created blogs will receive the "All Branches" tag, and a branch's specific blog (like an upcoming branch event) will get buried beneath other org update blogs (and in some cases, entirely removed from the branch blog ribbon due to the amount of newer content).

Allow leaders to set a later opening date for instructor/assistant sign up
Allow activity leaders to set a later opening date for instructor/assistant leader sign up for an activity. Right now, you can only set a registration date for participants. Instructor opening date is automatically open as soon as the activity is on the website. This allows instructors/assistant leaders to sign up for activities potentially before the leader is ready for sign ups -- for instance, while a course is in the unpublished status, or when an activity is a backup date that the leader might not want to fill until the originally scheduled date is canceled. It would be better in…

Allow users to add items to Promo Codes based on product/activity characteristics
Currently, items that are on promotion can only be added per product. For large promotions, this is very tedious as it requires users to add products one by one. If we could add a category of products to a promotion, this would save significant amounts of time. Example - Add All Green Trail Maps to a promotion.

Create "add to calendar" link in registration confirmation email
A link for iCal or google calendar so that when registrants get a confirmation email they can immediately put it on their personal calendar. Primarily thinking about events, but would be great for trips too!

Improve Event Registration process for non-members
The issue: We currently do not have a way for non-members to register/RSVP for Ms events that are open to the public. Our process requires guests to create a guest account before they can register for an open event, which can be a barrier or deterrent. On the back-end, this process makes managing an event roster nearly impossible as the "Add People to Event Roster" requires a member name to be added first. If there is no Current Path with the guest's name, you can't proceed.

Delayed Send for Auto Email for Activities/Events
I like to hold off on sending emails until the 1-2 days before and the registration has been closed. These emails include things like my personal number, weather conditions, and overall serve as a reminder. Most people find accessing an email from a phone easier than accessing it from the website (and I don't want to include my phone number on postings).
Sometimes the ideal time to send an email conflicts with other activities (ie I might be leading a conditioning hike or doing a race the night before a morning run). To get around this, I will sometimes send…
