Allow "Requested Info" field to be either required or optional during participant registration
Add the option to either the "Requested Info" is required or optional when a participant register an activity, clinic or seminar. Currently this field is optional and participant can still register if this field is not filled up.
This option should be applied where ever the "Requested Info" is available when the item is created or edited.0 votes -
Improve My Profile Preferences View GH3064/3573/3534
Improve how a member’s preferences are displayed on the bottom of their My Profile page and to minimize confusion on where and how to change (edit) them.
Notes:
- Don't show checkboxes or data entry boxes with their “values,” because it makes them look editable.
- Remove help text, so that essentially only the field labels and their values are displayed and so that the view is more compact.
- Some of the “answers” will need to be “calculated” to make the view more user-friendly.
- Move items on the Profile Edit Form to match the My Preferences view (both…0 votesCompleted · AdminJeff Bowman (Associate Director of Information Technology, The Mountaineers) respondedCompleted Nov 2021.

Add to Check to Feedback Forms for Incident Report Info GH2731/2732
When checking whether to send an email to the Safety Committee (for all feedback forms) and whether to direct the user to the Incident Report Form (for activity-related feedback forms only) after submitting a Feedback Survey Form, in addition to checking if the answer to "Were there any safety incidents or near-misses on this trip? " is "yes," also check to see if the "Describe the incident or near-miss." response in NOT empty, If either is true send the Safety Committee and email and redirect the user to the Incident Report.

Change Shopping Cart Timer Message Text GH2932
Change the shopping cart timer message text to:
You have {time_remaining} minutes to complete your registration and payment or your registration will be canceled to give others a chance to register.”
Where time_remaining is 30, 29, 28, etc. minutes (it starts at 30 minutes, a website setting that can be increased or decreased if needed).
It seems like it might be better to show how many minutes remain to give a better sense of urgency.

Upgrade to latest 4.3.x version of Plone GH2850
To make sure we have the latest bugfixes, can more easily contribute any fixes of our own back to Plone, and are in the best position to upgrade to Plone 5.

Upgrade to Plone 5
Our website is built on Plone 4.3 which runs on Python 2. Support for Python 2 ends in 2020. Plans to have Plone 5.2 on Python 3 are in the works. To be sure we are able to maintain support and install needed security patches, we should begin the process of upgrading to Plone 5 in late FY2019 and complete the transition in early FY2020. We will get many small side benefits from the upgrane to Plone 5 like being able to have links in help text and importing events.

Allow summary text to wrap around the photo on the front page of a listing GH2886
Currently it often happens that some of the text of the summary for an event or seminar listing ends up covered by the photo. Can we make it possible for the text to wrap around the photo? It's very frustrating to have to go back and forth and tweak the summary text so that it isn't covered by the photo!
0 votesWith the moving of the registration portlet to below the image (a while ago), text wraps around the image now.
Please do remember that images should be at least 400 pixels on one side (landscape or portrait orientation does not matter). And summaries should be very short, no more than three sentences. See our Publications Style Guide, https://www.mountaineers.org/volunteer/leader-resources/publications-style-guide, for more info.

Utilize Gallery View for Images on Routes & Places GH2825
Like we have for our book and merchandise detail pages, use a main image display and thumbnails below for the route/place images(s) displayed at the upper right of each route/place.
An alternative that may be less effort is to add a "Gallery" tab to the tabbed nav area and show all images in the route/place's "Images" folder with the "Gallery" view.

Add Map Area/Radius Filter to Route/Place and Activity Searches
Right now the map view of search results doesn't show if you don't have any filters chosen, because the map view has a limit on the number of records (balloons) that may be displayed. Add the ability to filter by an defined area--two corners of a rectangle or a radius around a point.
0 votesClustering is a better idea that is easier to implement and decrease the need for this approach to improving map search.

For a lot of our youth programs you always need to have a QYL badge and either a course badge or a QYL badge and a collection of skill badges. Right now the website isn't set up to make sure the QYL is connected to the course badge "OR" functionality and the skill badge "AND" functionality.

Add slide show and grid view to galleryview for folders (not Book and Merchnadise details pages):
Slide Show: Add a slide show selector to galleryview with full screen, timer and left/right arrow controls.If there are videos (or any non-image content) in the folder, skip them.
Grid View: Add a grid selector and display a grid of thumbnails in galeryview. Open the image in a popup overlaying the grid/page when clicked. Close the popup via an "X" in the upper right of the image popup (and maybe left/right arrows on the popup?).
