I run 3-4 events a week and autopost these to FaceBook using the events page RSS and Twitterfeed. It works a treat except that the posts contain the same blurb and a title which I'm not too happy about (you can see what I mean here: https://www.facebook.com/MySocialCircle )

Is it possible, to customise the title for the event details pages? It seems to read as "organisation name - event title" as the page title, and the blurb appears to come from the events calendar page description meta tag.

Is it possible to change the description metadata dynamically (to take details from the event description) and perhaps customise the title (even if only to reverse the order)?

I realise that the way its displayed does have something to do with FB and the way it presents links now, but it would be so great if every time I shared a link via RSS feed that it didn't have the same old blurb.......

Anyone got any brilliant ideas?

I would like to see added the ability for department managers or administrators to register multiple members and pay for all of them in one transaction. It may be possible to add this feature to the group bundle administrator settings. Currently, the group bundle admin can add as many new members as the association allows for one price. Maybe instead of one price, the system would mulitply the number of members added and charge the admin accordingly. Any other admins out there looking for this kind of functionality?

We currently have a spreadsheet that a group admin can fill out and email to us. We manually add the members and invoice the admin. Once paid, we activate all the members.

Our Membership managers want to locate primary company contacts (or bundle administrators) using the simple search screen.

When you have a many bundled administrators with many linked (or children) records. It’s difficult to find the primary member contact (or bundled administrator). I know you can use advance search but this involves extra steps when searching on a day-to-day basis. In our case bundle administrators are the primary member contact which is used frequently.

The functionality is relatedly simple, in fact works exactly the same as finding an system administrator.

My suggestion for the Contacts / Simple Search page is to add:

1) 'With Bundle Administrator' and also 'With Non-Bundle Administrator' rights to the on the Filter menu, see below.

2) Add a GREEN star next to the primary contact (or Bundle Administrator) record on the simple search screen. The star is already added on the members screen to denote the Bundle Administrator but not shown on the simple search screen.

What are your thoughts??? If you agree with this functionality please vote for it. I need many votes.

Thank you for your help.

Greetings,

I would like to know if you could create a way to link only the email's domain to a membership.

I am the Director of Education for the World Trade Center in Denver, CO, a 501(c)6. Companies become members of the WTC Denver to help them import, export and to attend our specialized classes on conducting international trade. When a company becomes a member of the WTC Denver all of their employees receive the membership benefits.

Example: One of our members is MillerCoors. MillerCoors has several thousand employees within their company making it unrealistic for me to enter each employees email address into my database so I can offer them the membership discount at our events.

Would it be possible to associate only the email domain with a membership so anyone that enters an email address associated with a member company gets the member discount at our events. For example: anyone that uses an email address ending in @millercoors.com receives the discount.

Wild Apricot has been an invaluable asset to the World Trade Center Denver.

Thank you,

Justin

The database column "Renewal Date last Changed" is essential when we need to send out membership cards and other new member items.

I produce member cards twice a month - once for the first half and then for the last half of the month. Any time on or after the 16th of the month I extract all those with a renewal date of the 1st thru the 15th and then after the first I extract all those with a renewal dated of the 16th thru the 31st.

Given the current tools, this is a tricky selection that requires two criteria - everyone whose renew date is greater than or equal to the 1st of the month AND less than or equal to the 15th of the month. There is a different set of criteria for the last half of the month. Also, these searches cannot be saved since next month the dates have to be changed to reflect the new month.

This process would be greatly simplified with a pair of new search criteria :

Select all members with a "Renewal Date last Changed" between day X and day Y of this month.

and

Select all members with a "Renewal Date last Changed" between day X and day Y of last month.

I would use option 1 on the 16th of the month in the form

"Select all members with a "Renewal Date last Changed" between day 1 and day 15 of this month."

and after the first of the next month I'd use option 2 in the form

"Select all members with a "Renewal Date last Changed" between day 16 and day 31 of last month."

Users who send out weekly member cards could set up additional ranges for whatever dates they are interested in,

Also, these searches could be saved and re-used each month since the terms "this month" and "last month" are based on the current date and are always meaningful.

When you go into membership settings - group managment - manage participants -

You can pick a group you want to edit the participant for that group. You have two lists on the left hand side you have the list of participants for that group, on the right hand side you have a list of all members so you can quickly add new members to be participants of that group. All good.

My suggestion is to have a drop down box with a list of data base fields above the right hand box (all members list) then you can pick a database field (custom ones as well). next to the dropdownbox (data base field) you have a text box to specify what you want to search on in that field. Then a search is done and the list below is now a list of specific members you can add to that group. Making life easier.

Reasons for use could create a group for peopleliving in a certain city, etc.

Now to make it even more fancy you could add filter capacity too it. By adding one of those + by the right hand side you could add more searches so you caould search on 2+ fields.

What do people think? hope it goes down well as a new user I hope I am on the right track. Loving your work WA like the new page managment.

I know that when editing a single page, that the version history shows who edited the page. However, it will only show who has actually edited the page, not the list of all those who have access to do so. It would be helpful to have an admin report that shows who has access to each page. Otherwise, you have to remember to keep a separate list somewhere of who has been given editing privileges. Adding new people is easy, but remembering to remove the ones that need to be removed is much harder :)

I can easily see how this report would be helpful for the other areas as well (e.g. event editors, membership management, etc.)

Thanks.

When I send a message to a group of recipients, all of the recipients go into a "sending" state until the message is delivered. If I click on the "failures" tab, it tells me that the message is still being sent until all have completed. None of the tabs seem to tell me which of recipients have not yet received the message and thus which may be experiencing delays. I suppose I could copy down the original recipient list and do set arithmetic with the successful delivery list, but I'm sort of disinclined to do this manually more than once.

I'd like to be able to list the recipients to which sending has not yet completed, so that if the process takes an inordinate amount of time, and if the message is time-sensitive, I can follow up with those people through other means, such as a telephone call or an alternate contact address.

I understand that it's not possible to know with 100% certainty that someone has not yet received a message. Delivery could possibly still occur even though the server gets (say) an SMTP 452 deferral error due to recipient grey-listing. Still, it would be good to know which ones the system still thinks are outstanding.

And I understand that delays in sending may represent problems that I should (and will) report to technical support for direct resolution. Just the same, having the data available would provide me with more options.

We would like to be able to specify individual members (rather than administrative roles) to receive specific system-generated emails (rather than ALL emails for membership, or ALL emails for events).

The system generates a lot of emails. For instance, there are initiation emails for membership sign-up and renewal; completion emails for membership sign-up and renewal; reminder emails for memberships that are expiring or have lapsed; and so on for events.

We have volunteers who work on membership and events who shouldn't have administrator access, but who should be able to get emails when someone signs up for a specific event, for instance.

And we have administrators who are incredibly frustrated because they're bombarded with emails that are basically irrelevant for them.

We want to be able to say that one specific member AND/OR one specific administrative role should receive a specific system-generated email, such as membership renewals or event sign-up for a specific event.

Really granular at the system-generated-email level as well as at the membership level.

We use Wild Apricot for the registration of training sessions, seminars and the like. There are many occasions that we have a person's assistant or secretary that will register their manager / team leader for a event on their behalf. The issue is that then the assistant/secretary is also registered for the event and this is not accurate and throws out our attendee numbers (for registration limits and catering, etc).

We are open to alternatives in achieving this - ie if a member could remove themselves from an event or (preferred) to be able to register a guest/contact/member without registering themselves.

Thanks
