I'd like to be able to further filter the events in the Upcoming Events Gadget. I am currently using tags, and that works great, but I'd like to hide (or gray out) those events that are sold out. I frequently have an event that re-occurs on several days. Because WildApricot events won't allow people to attend one session and not another, I've had to set these up as individual events. Now it becomes confusing for people wanting to sign up because they have to click on each event to see if there is space. I suppose I could use the Event Calendar gadget as a list, but that gives too much detail to fit nicely on the page.

Our payments for invoices and event fees are paid by either cheque in the mail, cash at the events, or sometimes by Visa on line.

As our organization is volunteer, the recording of all payments is kept in an excel file, as it has been to laboursome for our volunteer administrators to spend the time to update all that info into the Wildapricot system.

Ya.. I know.... But we are trying to get better at that.

Our memberships go from Feb to Feb with a reset on annual membership.

Because of this, it does not matter to us what happened last year, we are only concerned with th coming year.

As Members do not always come back every year, or payments ot recorded, when someone goes to renew a membership in the new year, the system tells them they still owe money from pre ious years. This is frustrating for them.

As there are simply too many invoices to go back through and void or record payment, i would like to see this....

A RESET to zero dollars owed and zero dollars collected for all members.

Then every year, we RESET the finances to Zero for the new year.

I hope to get to a point some day, where everything happens on line, but as our events occur in non-cell-service areas, there will always be a cash aspect at our events, that would ned to be updated back into the website system.

As we are volunteer based, an annual RESET would help us keep the system clean and up to date.

We have various organized events, but some are not on our calendar. We call these "non-calendar" participation, and they DO require Registration. Need a way to clearly present Non-Calendar Registration path to our site visitors, WITHOUT placing it at the top of our Event List (Events Calendar). Obviously, placing it at the bottom of the list is not advisable. Can we link to such a Registration form in an obvious place (e.g., a separate page that we can explain and link to at the top of the All Events List, or (2nd choice) Isolate this Form on the list somehow, so the eye goes first to the first scheduled event on the list?

Recently, a new WA admin mistakenly deleted our "gala" event with over 100 registrants - just a few days before the event.

Currently, WA Support cannot restore the event (or any events) - nor will a site backup recover the events. At best, WA Support Level II is hoping to recover some data...

This situation is probably not significant with respect to frequency. However, depending on the Event it can have a significant impact on a non-profit collecting funds, managing an event, and the perception regarding same.

Clearly, this situation can and has put WA and folks supporting same in a bad position. IMHO, being able to restore Events is a critical need for all - especially when the unknowing shoot themselves in the foot.

Please help raise the attention level of this most important & needed WA feature - ability to restore events.

For Email and Event entry, we need a true Content Management System -- where novice end-users can enter text and it is automatically dropped into a template that we design. You try explaining to some of our members why centered text is more readable; I've given up! And there are a lot of browser and mail-client quirks that need to be addressed expertly. They occur even if the HTML editor is never used, and they should not require HTML editing to fix. For example, your CSS image margin specs are totally ignored by Outlook 2010 and other mail clients. It takes way, way too long to create a major event "past events and coming attractions" newsletter. Your stock templates are only three levels deep, and if we insert an event description macro, the email must include the entire web page description (in appropriate for an email!). I could go on and on as to why it takes all day to work out the kinks in a robust newsletter. I shouldn't have to.
