Event Registration Report - options Mark All / Clear All
I am using the Event Registration Report frequently. I have events with over 30 field choices. It is very tedious to have to click or unclick each field box.
Would it be possible to make two Report Options?
Mark All - will select every field to report on.
Clear All - will unselect every field
Thank you.

Automatically update existing links when page is renamed, document or picture is moved
It would be helpful if all existing links within a web site are automatically modified when one changes the name of a page. This would avoid broken links. Thanks

Export of information presented on dashboard
The main and membership Dashboards both provide do a good job of summarizing data in the system and as such provide a valuable reporting tool.
However, the essence of a report is the ability to share it with others and there is no mechanism to do this. At present these reports are on the screen only and short of taking a screen snap there is no way to pass them around.
I would find it very valuable if there were an "Export" button which allowed us to receive a download of the dashboard in Excel (CSV??) format. This would allow us to both manipulate the report and to share it with the board and our membership.

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.

Signatures for blog posts and forums
Many forum and blog sites allow their contributors to add signature files for their participants. The can contain personal and contact information for the person, as well as any links and maybe even a quote or a photo
Requested
When a member is logged in they can define a "signature" as part of their profile/information. This would be limited in size (we don't want them too big!) and they could set it up so that it is appended to the bottom of every blog comment and forum reply that they make.9 votes -
Page access restricted to event attendees
Currently
You can control page access so that web pages you create are visible to Anybody, Selected Membership Levels, Groups, or just Admins.Desired
Sometimes people want to create a web page that has materials or information that only pertains to be people who have attended an event (handouts, itineraries, promo codes, pictures). In these cases you would want to have the ability to say Choose "Event registrants" and then select the event(s) from a list.At present this would only work for member who attended an event, but it might be possible to make it so that when a guest tries to access the page they are asked to enter their email, and that email is checked against the list of event attendees, but that solution would not be 100% secure.

Members to be able to manage an event
NOTE: There is already a thread http://forums.wildapricot.com/forums/308932-wishlist/suggestions/8825554-members-to-be-able-to-submit-events-3764 about allowing members to submit their own events. This thread is expands upon that by requesting to also give members the ability to manage those event.
My organization is focused on triathlons and members are the main driver of training events. One of the primary functions of the organization's website is to allow members to post and manage their own events. They don't need approval though we do keep an eye out for abuse.
The type of functionality a member would need to manage an event would be basic CRUD of the event itself as well as the abilty to email the RSVP participants directly in order to send out updates about the event. Financial transactions would not be a part of this (i.e. linking into WA's payment functionality).
RSVP's for our events are limited to members only (side note: it would be nice if a privileged user could have the ability to create an event that allowed non-members to register).
Because this capability is so critical to our organization's functioning, not having it is a show-stopper.
Thx,

Event Attendees Should Have Ability to Send Emails to Other Attendees
We would like all event attendees to have the ability to send an email to other attendees and event leaders. Right now only the event admin can send an email to all of the attendees. We have events where the attendees would like to set up carpools with each other. It would be really helpful if they had the ability to do this.
Thanks.

Ability to track volunteer hours
We are a swim club:
It would be fabulous if we could have members submit their volunteer hours on the website. Once approved (yes, they were there) by event organizer, the total volunteer hours would be tracked with their membership info. The administrator could query how many volunteer hours each member has put in.
We require that each family donate 40 hours to the club per year or pay a higher membership fee.

Tracking and automating member benefits
I would be interested to know if a process to track and manage unique member benefits has been discussed or proposed. We are considering using WA for a small museum, and our members receive benefits including free admissions (vouchers) that they can give away. I would like to populate the system with a certain number of benefits per level and then give the member the ability to use/print these unique pages any time they wished.
For example - a member at level 1 may receive a 5 free guest admissions, whereas a member at level 2 may receive 10 etc.

Dashboard Customization
As a Wild apricot user, wouldn't you love to customize the dashboard to your own liking? Batchbook from batchblue.com does this very elegently. The user can select from a number of widgets to enable/disable. You can even rearrange widgets by dragging and dropping.
I strongly suggest looking into Batchbook dashbook design for Wild apricot.

Defer payment until application is approval
I think it would be helpful to have an online application with an option of deferring the membership fee until the applicant has been approved for membership.
This would allow them to complete an application, which would enter the system as a Pending status. Once they have been approved, and the record is marked as Approved, then they would receive an email requesting that they then pay for the membership.
Our group has certain guidelines that must be met for membership. There are also other documents (proof of insurance, etc) that must be sent in for review. Once these items have been verified, then they can become a member. (Another requirement is that they've been in business at least two years).
In this case, there is a possibility that someone would apply and pay, only to get denied membership, requiring us to refund the payment.
ON ANOTHER NOTE - it might be nice to allow them to submit files with the app, such as the insurance certificate, etc.

For now, this is not something we’re going to change – not sure if ever.
Workaround to use: create a special “entry” free level to apply to, and close “normal” ones for application. For the entry level, create also a dropdown field where a potential member can choose a level they want to apply to. Add other fields you need to assess the application. When application is successful, your admin is to change membership level to required one and generate membership invoice (membership upgrade invoice). The member will be emailed with the invoice and can pay. -
Member Billing Contact
Many member accounts need a seperate billing email to get the renewal notices and event invoices. Is there someway to add a seperate field for billing contact name and email? Or a second person who gets notified of invoices and financial notices?

Event templates
I would save me a ton of work and grief if there were event templates for the details section. Copying previous event is ok, but because of the formatting and table issues in WA they never quite look the same. The details section could be broken out into, well, other sections. For example, in this order, have a template with sections for:
* Header/Title
* General Location (i.e. New York, Bay Area, Boston) with picture space (we have logos for each chapter location)
* Register Button
* Description/writeup of event/meeting
* Speaker info and bio links (if applicable)
* Deadline to register
* Another Register Button
* Sponsors logos and linksUnder Additional Information have seperate sections for the following and tie which section goes to which type of registration attendee (we don't need to send directions to those calling in and we don't need to send call-in info to those attending in person):
* Directions to venue
* Call-in Info
* Additional information (such as event attire, etc.)If we could make templates with these items what a huge time saver it would be and the consistency from event to event would be so much more professional.

One Member Registers Multiple Members for an Event
Hello,
I mentioned this in the last survey I took and Dmitry suggested I post this here.
We have encountered several instances where allowing a member to sign up other members for an event would be a big advantage.
For example:
Member Frank would like to make a reservation for dinner with member Mike. It would be faster and tidier if Frank can do this in one registration. This way, Mike and Frank both appear on the list of registrants and both will receive updates about the dinner event. At present both would have to register separately (this would cause some confusion as to who is sitting with whom), or as Frank plus 1, in which case Mike would not receive any notice about the event.
To take this example further, we have many couples who are members. I have given both parties login credentials so that they can access the various sections of the site that are for the members only. Under the current system both parties would have to register for an event in order to appear on the registration list. Many, many times I have been asked to allow them to register both parties at one time.
We also do team events of up to 8 members so this would be very helpful in that regards as well.
Any change to the system that would allow this would not need too much in terms of error checking since every party that is registered would receive notice and any errors could be very simply corrected by the administrator.
I'm not sure what type of control I would suggest for this, but a drop down box would work, although it would be tricky if you have a very long list of members.
Maybe we can implement a screen where the member chooses the other members who are authorized to register them for events??? Just a thought.
Anyway, i'd be very interested in everyone thoughts about this.
It would help me immensely!
Thanks!

Inserting Gadgets in eMails like upcoming events or recent blog posts
Very glad to see the gadget feature just introduced.
Is it possible to insert the gadgets into emails generated through WA? This would be great for newsletters etc. and would save us the need to use a separate service to read RSS feeds etc. We could then start to consolidate our mailing list into WA as contacts (more $$ for you guys!)

Calendars that sync with Google Cal or Outlook
Calendars that sync with Google Cal or Outlook
Right now, parents on our ski team must manually click each event to "add to my calendar," but since we have as many as 2-3 events per week, that is a burden. Instead, they would love to subscribe to a series of events (for instance, all events that share a given tag).

We just launched integration with Integromat platform, which helps to build automated workflows. We also provide several templates for quick start, and one of them allows to copy Wild Apricot events into google calendar. So you can share this google calendar and you members can subscribe to it.
You can try the integration by this link https://www.integromat.com/en/integration/2276-copy-wild-apricot-events-into-google-calendar

Change Field Type For Existing Database Fields
I should like some flexibility to be able to change field types for existing database fields.
For example I have fields which are current defined as text. However members give different responses to the question in terms of capitalisation, abbreviations etc which make the behaviour of the search on data in that field erractic.
I'd like to be able to change such a text field to a picklist.
The database would still store a text value but the choice available to new members would be restricted by the list. Existing membership records would continue to hold the existing data until the member chose to edit their record or renew their membership (if not previously edited) at which point the user would be required to replace the old non-compliant data value with a new one from the pick list.

Family/child memberships
We are providing a web site for our cub parents and scouts and scout parents and we find we have say 2 parents and their 2 children as 4 members, but the parents and children share a family address, the younger children do not have their own address nor do mothers or fathers want the children to have gmail addresses or things like that, so allowing multiple members with one email address would be an improvement for us. A username and password of their choosing preferable to one WA generate.
The situation also arrises where parents would like email to go to both the family email address and their personal email address, so our users are saying, our family need the ability to have multiple members with the same email address and individual members need to have multiple email addresses.
Messy but that is our real world. Less messy than multiple membership records for one real person and fake email addresses.
