Problem with "cancellation pending"
Cancellation pending can be a problem for leaders when they are trying to cancel people off and add people from the waitlist right before the course. The people in "cancellation pending" count towards the number of registered students, which means that their spots can't be offered to anyone else until Member Services reviews their status and issues the refund, etc. Member Services then changes the status to "cancelled" which then frees up that spot for someone else. But the problem is that this lag in between "cancelled" and "cancellation pending" can sometimes take days and prevents leaders from being able…
1 voteI am sorry to hear you’ve experienced a lag time on cancellations. Unfortunately we need the cancellation pending status to process refunds. Member Services does cancellations every business day so if you are seeing a lag time of more than one business day on a course roster that is time sensitive please email info@mountaineers.org or give us a ring at 206-521-6001 so we can update immediately. Additionally if the course is shortly approaching you are welcome to email those on the waitlist to let them know they are in, send them course materials and alert them they will be offered a spot shortly.
In addition to our daily cancellation pending notifications we also recently implemented a weekly cancellation pending report to help ensure that these are processed in a timely manner.

Allow Map Displayed on Activity Route/Place Tab to be Edited GH1870
Allow leaders to edit the GPS Start Point and GPS End Point (or the map in whatever form it exists) that is displayed on the "Route/Place" tab on the Activity pages.
This will make the map displayed with the activity more accurate for the trip itinerary.

Better links to committee pages
One thing that irks me is if I'm not logged into the website and try to find a committee page, it's impossible. You would think each committee would be listed under the branch, but that's not the case. If you click on the branch, you get their page/latest news, but no list of committees! If visitors to the site can't easily find the different committees, how can they really get an idea of what we each do?
1 voteWe’ve added links to branch pages under the learn section where committee material can be highlighted and in the course overview section we link back to branches and committee pages. Ie if you go to photography courses in course overviews and click the Seattle link it links to Seattle photography committee page.

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 -

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.
1 voteWe installed and configured the StepUp app for Salesforce in Apr 2019.

Reset faceted searches when date boxes are emptied GH1435
If both Start Date and End Date boxes in the "Starting..." section of the faceted searches (Find Activities, Find Course and Find Instructor Opportunities) are emptied, reset/resubmit the search.
It can be removed by clicking the date filter at the top of the search, but we also want the date filter to be removed if the date boxes are emptied.
1 voteThis is fixed.

Properly Group and Sort Replies to Comments GH1392
We're currently sorting trip reports and blog comments in reverse chronological order. This part is okay. But replies to a trip report or blog comment seem to appear "above" the post to which they apply. Ideally we want to place them "below" the post to which they reply and better differentiate replies from the original post.
1 voteComments and replies are properly grouped and sorted in chronological order now.

Mileage and Elevation Gain modifications GH1474
Although Leaders can change the mileage and elevation of a trip they took instead of using the default route/place data, they currently have to do this by editing the "activity." It would be one-step easier if this was possible on the same page as when you "close out" the activity. Can we duplicate that data input there as well as in the activity template?
1 voteYou may now update the mileage and elevation gain when closing an activity in addition to the trip results, participant results and volunteer hours. We also improved the instructions on the roster page, so it shoudl be much clearer how to close an activity.

Bookstore Hours
I love the bookstore, but wish it was open on Saturdays so that those of us with day jobs could use it more often!
1 voteMost of our members are out playing on the weekends and we are not in a great retail location so Saturdays historically has not been a good fit. Please do review our extended hours on the bookstore page, mountaineers.org/bookstore. Thanks!

When viewing someones profile make the "My Activities etc" show up differently than one's personal profile GH901
When browsing another members page, many of the headers appear as if I'm viewing my own page (My Activities, My Profile, My Courses). It's a bit confusing at first whether those will continue navigating another users page, or will take me to my own.
1 voteWhen viewing someone else’s profile we now have changes to help make it clearer whose profile you are looking at. When you are looking at someone else’s profile it no longer says My Activities or My Courses it simply says Courses and Activities and the person’s name is inserted above so it is clear that it isn’t your profile you are looking through.

When regional chairs offer to help a member with something, follow through!
I have a road trip to Zion coming up and would have liked to post as global activity. I have been a member for only one year so was unable to post. Tacoma Branch Chair offered to help any way he could and though I reached out twice, I received no follow through. Suggest:
1. Changing rules for activity posts so those who have experience and good activities can communicate to others who may be interested in participating.
2. If you are a in a lead position (regional chair) and offer your assistance, follow through to your membership community. It…1 voteChris corresponded with you about these issues. Please let us knwo if you need anything more.

Leaders of a committee should be able to access old course rosters
From Dennis Miller via info@mountaineers.org
It appears that courses expire which means they don't show up under the course template unless you are course admin.
1 voteCommittee admins can see all courses. If a person needs to work with historical courses, they should be a committee admin.

Enhance promo code limits GH1111
As discussed, can you please talk to David about adding a “max use” requirement for our Promo Code. Right now you can add a maximum use per person, but not per code. Meaning you can only use a code once, but then you could give me the code and I could use it (also only once).
Ideally we’d like to create a requirement for promo codes so they can only be used once (in the case of gift membership) which means we don’t’ ever need to go back in and add an expiration date, as it will expire once it…
