Event Calendar Filter / Search on public side
I was hoping to see if there is a way to publicly search event calendars on wild apricot through basic or advance search criteria filters. Eventually I would want the public to be able to find an event by city/location or member profile association.

cancel registration button
It would be nice to feature a "cancel registration" macro/button option. That way when we send out reminders, those who can no longer attend can cancel.

Limit guest registration to members only
Our members love the ability to register guests for events. However when an event is members only, when members register guests, there is no member look-up or verification that the guest being registered is also a member.
I know I can restrict the event so guests cannot be registered, but this feature is really helpful for our couples that share an email --- one can register both of them under the same email when using the guest registration option. And when a member wants to pay for multiple attendees on line in one transaction, they can do that this way.

Event Attendees Self Check-in capability
We would like the capability to create a simple webpage that allows event attendees to enter their email address, or any other field we define (i.e., Member ID). System finds the event registration for that contact and checks them in to the event. This self-serve check-in feature is available only if the attendee has paid the appropriate attendance fee.
This would relieve work from our registration people at events. We would set up two or three computers at the registration table and allow attendees to check themselves into the event.
This would also encourage pre-registration and payment for events. We…

Check boxes to replace radio buttons in events with multiple registration types
For events where multiple registrations are enabled, it would be nice to have check boxes next to the registration types so the user can select multiple versus the radio buttons, as they are now, where they can only select one, go through the entire registration process and then Do it again for the other registrations. It’s not super intuitive to the user that they can register multiple times in this manner. Whereas having the check box option where they can select multiple types in one fell swoop would be so much more user friendly and easy for everyone.

Better Event Registrations Workflows
Workflow is pretty bad. The developers should sit down with a client local to you an actually try to check in people. You have to enter information twice and getting back to the event list is a round-a-bout gesture. It've very inefficient and time consuming.
Things like address and names should be passed through to the payment page when accepting credit cards.

Prompt lapsed members to renew at event registration
When registering for an event with membership-restricted registration:
- a member is prompted to log in even though they don't have to
- a non-member is prompted to become a member (good!)
- a lapsed member is given the unfriendly message "Event registration is not available for [your email address] due to event settings". They are NOT prompted to renew, or offered any way to proceed at all!
Please make this consistent for lapsed members and prompt them to log in and renew so they can register for the event.

Consolidated event announcements
We run 3-5 events per week, so using the scheduled event email blasts are not an option as we would be bombarding people with emails all the time.
What would be great if we could consolidate all of the events in a single email and send that as a newsletter. I imagine it being something like the events list that could be inserted into the email like a widget or gadget.
Is there a way to do something like this currently?
Thanks Kerrie-Anne

Registration Type for Guests too
The system needs to allow for choosing registration type for a guest. Currently guests pay the same price as registrants or special price. It would be easiest to handle Families using the guest feature (no repeated contact info or memberhsip, etc.).

Event Reporting
We'd like to be able to pull aggregated reports of our events. Year over year, to see who is attending. Paid members vs. walk ins. Whether the price affects attendance, or certain months/seasons affect attendance. It would really help with forecasting and budgeting purposes. Thank you.

Email Announcements 1-2- and 3 should be copy-able to all 3.
Once you fight through the idiosyncrasies of the WYSIWYG for Announcement 1, you should be able to button-duplicate that to Announcements #2 and #3.

Bulk event management
Bulk event management (create/delete/modify) bulk delete can be done in the UI via checkboxes on the event list bulk create/modify could be based off spreadsheet export/import like we can do with contacts The current functionality is a serious impediment for us trying to add multiple events per week for several months ahead.

Ability to Search Custom Event Registration Fields
I would like to request that WA consider in future updates the ability to search and filter contact and event registrants via custom event registration fields. I am using WA to manage a large state conference and have our pre-conference sessions built into the event registration and would like to email just those people, but there is no way to filter those folks out without exporting to excel. This would make managing larger events with more complicated registrations easier.

Ability to change sort order on the attendee list - published view
I know this has been talked about before, but it looks like it was just on the admin side.
I am wondering if there is a way to sort the attendee list that is published for general members to see.
We tend to have about 800-900 members register to attend our events, and would like the list to be sorted alphabetically so that people can easily search to see if their friends have registered. It is currently sorted by WHEN they registered.

Event Registration Report Email(s)
It would be great if the meeting organizer could setup a date & time for Wild Apricot to automatically email him/her (and a cc list) a report of those that are registered (and have declined) for an event. This should take advantage of the event "report" feature and be at the event level in the email section.

Ability to customize security aspects of {Registration_buttons} macro (warning message, auto-login behavior) in event announcements emails
Current behavior:
When an event announcement email includes the {Registration_buttons} macro
- buttons has the ability to auto login recipients
- security warning advising against forwarding the email will automatically appear in red at the topThere are some issues with this solution:
- "scary" security warning may reduce attendee engagement
- risks of having autologin link in email might not be clear enough
- there is no customization available (i.e there is no way to switch off autologin functionality and remove message)Desired behavior:

Make event announcement emails work the same as registration reminder emails
I get a direct increase in the number of attendees (my objective for each of my weekly events) when I can send a specific announcement email for that event. My members are regulars and don't want to and don't have to have to register for the events they want to come to, it wastes their time. The events are specific that week and don't follow a sequence but because of the way you have things set up, to be able to send an announcement ahead of time, for each event that week, I have to input 13 events a week…
