Support for Voting on Forum Posts
Similar ideas have been posted here before, see https://forums.wildapricot.com/forums/308932-wishlist/suggestions/34133521-thumbs-up-in-forum and https://forums.wildapricot.com/forums/308932-wishlist/suggestions/9904584-idea-management-voting-system-gadget.

The polls require a fixed list of options, all of which are known in advance and determined by an administrator. What we need is exactly the voting functionality of this Wishlist forum, which is open-ended and encourages user participation. We already have two forum categories where this would be useful:
Website Wishlist: We could prioritize improvements to our website better with some user feedback, just as Wild Apricot does with this forum.
Event Ideas: Our members have a lot of ideas for events, but participation is often thin. We could better serve our membership and avoid wasting time organizing unpopular events with some member feedback.Similar ideas have been posted here before, see https://forums.wildapricot.com/forums/308932-wishlist/suggestions/34133521-thumbs-up-in-forum and https://forums.wildapricot.com/forums/308932-wishlist/suggestions/9904584-idea-management-voting-system-gadget.

New email editor should support font awesome
Pasting a font awesome icon into the new email editor Text Gadget doesn't work. The UI says it is using the font awesome font, but the icon displays as a solid box. This looks like a bug to me (else why would the UI recognize the font), but WA support asked me to log it as an enhancement, so here it is. (WA support confirmed it didn't work for them either, so not a local browser issue)

Searching Contacts - Return/Enter key
Please allow users to press "return" or "enter" after typing a search term in the Simple Search function of Contacts.
Background:
When searching contacts, most people in my organization find it to be an act of muscle memory to use the Return/Enter key after typing what we are searching for. For instance, if we are searching for John Smith, we will generally type "Smith" and then press return. However, pressing return brings you to the place where you enter a new contact, regardless of what we typed into the search field before pressing return.
Although we realize that we should not press return, decades of data entry is making this hard for us to remember. This makes searching for a contact take twice as long as it should most of the time. When doing multiple searches, it makes the entire process completely tedious.

wider page content
Allow for web page width flexibility to be wider on the page. Currently the maximum width of content leaves a lot of white space on either side on desktop monitors and laptops. It seems that this can be accommodated without sacrificing any type of functionality.

upload privleges
I don't know if this has been requested previously but is would be great if it was possible to set the folders that those with limited Admin access (eg Activities Admin) can use. I keep telling and showing those Admins where to upload their pictures for events and newsletters that they create, but they are loading them in multiple places and then I have to clean them up which is a tedious process.
Can access be set to a user account, so that I can easily restrict which folders they can or cannot use?

Add EventID query to Finances.PaymentAllocations
Unlike Finances.Payments and Finances.Invoices that will return all payments/invoices, or all payments/invoices for an Event (or Contact), PaymentAllocations only returns results for a single invoice or payment. This can slow down scripts by several orders of magnitude.
Would be great if the PaymentAllocations GET call was expanded to add an EventID query (like Finances.Payments), or even to return all payment allocations, rather than only one at a time.
Use case: I want to generate a list of all the payments made to an event, showing the actual $$ that each payment was TO THE EVENT. Calling GET on the Finances.Payments API using the EventID query generates a list of all the payments for an event but the total $$ is NOT what was paid for that event. Payments, even when filtered by EventID, can include payments to other events, membership, etc. because a single payment can be allocated to multiple invoices. To limit the $$ to only what was paid to the event, it is necessary to call the PaymentsAllocation API for each payment, match each element to the event-specific invoices, and extract the Value. Since API calls are slow (c. 0.5sec using Apps Script), it is possible to return a list of 100 payments in 0.5 sec, 200 invoices in 0.5 sec, but to figure out the actual payments for the event it takes 100 *0.5 sec or nearly a minute. Using async doesn't seem to help.
So, the simple request "generate the list of each registrants payments for this event" takes at least (1 + # of registrants) API calls, rather than 2 or 3.

Inlcude weekday names along with date in the mobile app
Please include the weekday name along with the date in the WildApricot mobile app. Currently, it displays, "25 Feb 2024". I would like to display it as "Sat, Feb 25, 2024". This would greatly help members using the WildApricot Member App to figure out which weekday an event starts.

HST Charges
HST must be charged on basis of where the product or service is provided. If we hold an event in Ontario then this needs to have 13% HST applied but the current system appears to use different locations (and rules) maybe based on address of customer, address of registered credit card??
The system does not comply with CRA guidelines at this point and needs to be fixed2 votes -
Make integration of WildApricot with other applications
I have been using Make to integrate WildApricot with other applications. Eg, auto generation and emailng of registrant lists to organisers of all upcoming events.
I would like to communciate with others who have experience with Make.
Eg, I am trying to upload files from a WA Attachment Field to say GoogleDrive. Of course, I can do this manually but automatically would be very desirable for us.1 vote -
Modified check in procedure
We regularly check in 150-175 members at monthly events, all in about 15 minutes. I can check someone in with a single click, but if I also want to clear his/her invoice (still open if he is a cash or check payor), I need to go through a much longer process. Could we have a global setting that caused an event invoice to be cleared automatically when checked in for that event?

Bulk clearing of invoices
An event with 150 attendees might, in our case, result in 50 payments in advance by credit card and 100 payments on event day by check or cash. Marking an invoice paid requires three screens, three clicks, so that means 300 screens to clear all the invoices from a single event (we have at least one event per month).
You give us an export function to export invoices; what would be handy is a similar import function so we could edit the XLS file and then import it back to clear the invoices.1 vote -
Fix the accounting period linked to billing date
Fix the accounting period for billing.
Currently the system forces invoices to be produced days or weeks in advance of renewal dates to avoid issues with account status. For example for annual renewal due on January 1 and delinquent on January 31, the invoices should be generated and sent at least 30 days in advance. But the invoice date then is in December or November of the previous year, and the accounting will reflect the income in the wrong year!
There are several ways to fix that, but please do. One way for example is to add an invoice due date and let us decide if the invoice date or the invoice due date is generating the income.Fix the accounting period for billing.

Confusing UI Elements .. White on White etc.
My user community is consistently confused by certain non-standard UI choices
-- white on white Action buttons that don't stand out ... btn-outline-primary btn-sm would be much easier to spot with say a light blue background
-- Note that sometimes you do color buttons to make them clearer ... e.g. Apply on search terms
-- it says Public View in Admin View. I realize it is a menu choice but my users see it as a title since is it separated from the menu bar. It would be much clearer if the top left explicitly said Admin View
instead of just the Wild Apricot logoIn general it's a lot easier to discuss things with users over the phone when the base identifiers stand out so they easily spot them

QRF code for users to self check-in
We are currently using the Wild Apricot Admin application to check members into events. I understand that users can scan into events using a QRF code from the user app. There should be a way that users can scan themselves into an event. For example, we should be able to create a QRF code that users can scan and be submitted into the attendance?

Custom email preview text
Custom email preview text. The email preview in notifications and inboxes under the heading is customizable in other email marketing services. In Wild Apricot, it just selects the first lines of text out of the email. Being able to select this text manually would make for more personable and function emailing.

Email Calendar
a calendar that is a visual summary of all scheduled emails that are being generated by events automatically. This is so we can time the sending of other emails manually, as well as social media posts, to give our membership space without sending too many emails/messages on the same day.

Allow members to do an Advanced Search of the Directory using more than one term in a search field.
Allow members to do an Advanced Search of the Directory using more than one term in a search field (or using the same field more than once. As an Admin I can search for multiple terms (e.g. "1972" and "Cutlass") by adding a second instance of a field. I would like our members to be able to do the same type of search in the directory.
