Leader's Permission Required SHOULD MEAN LEADER'S PERMISSION REQUIRED
It's hard enough dealing with the instructors and other participants that can not or will not read and understand the posting of an activity, course, field trip, ANYTHING let alone dealing with someone that registers without getting permission to do so. What is the point of having a check box or radio button if there is no functionality behind it?

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…

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to sign up for activities potentially before the leader is ready for sign ups -- for instance, while a course is in the unpublished status, or when an activity is a backup date that the leader might not want to fill until the originally scheduled date is canceled.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…

Link event tickets to a salesforce revenue campaign as they are purchased
The fundraising team would love it if there was a way to link event ticket purchases to a specific campaign as they came in so we can track revenue and ensure it is assigned to a specific fundraising effort and communicate with accounting if it needs to be assigned to a specific funding need. This would be similar to how we set up donation pages to assign to a specific campaign.

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.

Course activity review tool for courses with 2-3 activities SD664
Include some bulk review and update tools for courses where we only 2-3 required activities. For courses like WFA, Navigation or Basic Snowshoeing with just a couple required field trips/lectures make a roster preview and download that allows you see that a student is registered for all required activities and then their participant result and probably participant notes. This is probably exception report for a course roster compared to 1-3 activity template roster (on screen and download).
For more involved courses we are hoping to build a mega download of all activities for students involved in that course. See listing…

Additional Search Functions: Sorting SD504
for activity listings allow user to sort by destination, leader, availability and allow sorts in ascending or descending order
7 votesHello All -
We are following up on UV Ideas and was wondering if those who submitted or voted for this idea could elaborate on the exact fields they ideally would like to sort by and the benefit they would receive from that sort option. This will help us better understand the priority and the level of development effort this idea would have. Each element we include in a filter or a sort adds additional development effort.
Example - "I would like the option to sort by registration deadline date to understand what activities I need to consider signing up for soon."
Thanks!

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.

Stop stripping line breaks from Leader Permission request comments section
Most people (myself included) when entering information for the leader in the permission request comment box, make an effort to format it as cleanly as possible with line breaks to organize provided information.
However, the code appears to strip all these line breaks from the text and drop a super messy blob of text in the request email that comes to leaders. This makes the leader's job unnecessarily harder because we have to mentally parse the blob back into the requester's intended presentation.
Could we please stop stripping the line breaks and preserve the intended format?

Installment Payment System for Donations
While we have monthly donations, we would like to request a payment installments specifically for donations that would have a start and end date that can be broken out by month or by quarter or any schedule identified by the donor. It may be similar to the proposal put forward for courses, however, will be different because this payment schedule would specific for an individual rather than a product.

(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…

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.

Provide a way to tell if leader has unread feedback
Currently, there is no indication if a participant has submitted feedback after a leader has viewed the feedback. Personally, I check for feedback a few days after the activity, and if someone adds feedback after that I probably won’t ever see it.
