Idea #2 would be great! It would greatly simplify the creation of email if we had a fast way such as this to insert news and events.

Agreed. One of the reasons for utilizing W/A is to start to bring all of the needed functionality into a single system. I am working on selling clients on the fact that W/A can replace CC so they can save that money. With email tracking, and the upcoming bounce handling, I think the next important items are:
1) The ability to quickly add a list of the upcoming events (just like inserting the events widget on a web page)
2) Similar functionality for news...so we can simply add news items to the web site and then quickly generate an email that contains each headline with a link to click to read more (again...just like inserting a news widget on a web page)
3) The ability to automatically create an archive of the email and add this link to the email header (i.e. click here to view in browser if you are having trouble reading)
Built in email templates would be nice, but this can be easily done in an HTML editor and then saved in W/A as a template for use later. The actual functionality improvements would be more important to me.

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

Does that mean that this feature no longer works??? It was a great idea that made it very easy for people to add our events to their calendar. Why turn it off?
Yes! Having a check box on emails to allow the automatic creation of a web page and a webpage archive would be very helpful and would bring the system in line with competing email systems. Wild Apricot uses this feature in their own email newsletters (as "having trouble viewing this email - click here to view as a web page"), so it seems like you can see the value in this feature. Any word on when it might be implemented?
This can be done manually, but it is tedious!
