We are a golf society of 950 members with some 120 matches per year, most of which are run by different members. We set up the matches centrally so that match managers do not have to do that part of event management but we require the match managers to respond to registrations and send out confirmations and starting sheets
The majority of match managers only go on to the admin site once a year to manage a handful of players and few of them have the ability (and patience) to manage the current ‘registration’ site - so resort to managing the match outside the system, which defeats the whole point
With a good number of votes for this request, which was started almost two years ago, I really hope that we will something done - it would also make Wild Apricot very much more attractive to potential customers who find the current administration facilities less than intuitive

This is very similar to another wishlist item: https://forums.wildapricot.com/forums/308932-wishlist/suggestions/8827498-export-event-summaries#comments
Export of registrations is fine, we just need an export for event details (including event organizer)
Fields I would like to see in such an export are:
· Event-ID
· Title
· Event URL
· Tag
· Location
· Start date
· End date
· Event organizerAn error occurred while saving the comment Malcolm de C

Having an event export facility would be very useful for creating a printed fixture card, especially if the export were to include the name of the Event organiser. Fields I would like to see in such an export are:
· Event-ID
· Title
· Event URL
· Tag
· Location
· Start date
· End date
· Event organizer
Hopefully this should technically be very straightforward -

Having an option to display the file name as a caption would be a simple way of enabling captions. This would be very helpful

We have a nomination process whereby new members are proposed and have to be seconded by two other members with letters of support. Because we have more applications than spaces, successful nominations are put into a pool and drawn out at random each year, depending on the spaces available. Nominations (identified by the year of nomination, have a maximum of six ballots before they are taken out of the pool and are no longer eligible to become members. It would be great if the system could support this process online by allowing an existing member to nominate, and two or more others to submit 'letters' of support

An import facility would be great for new Wild Apricot customers to get going quickly just as they do with the membership import capability

As a golfing society, we use the guest registration to register the opposition team, so only have to enter first name, last name and golf handicap (one of our common fields. To be able to enter the names in list format with just these three fields would be excellent

Hello everyone!
Seeing your activity on this thread we would like to present you with three new templates using the third-party app called “Integromat”. They could help you to:
- Copy an event with registrants
- Export registrations into a Google sheet
- Import registrations from a Google sheetThese need a short one-time setup and then you’ll be able to do the actions above in just a few clicks!
For more info see our blog: https://www.wildapricot.com/blogs/newsblog/2019/04/30/event-registration-integromat
We absolutely understand this is not a solution but more of a workaround for this request, so we won’t close this thread. But feel free to share your thoughts about these templates as well!
Please note, these workflows have some limitations and might not suit everybody. But we hope they will make your life a bit easier.

I fully support the ability to pull data from custom fields rather than it having to be entered. Clearly it wouldn't make sense to use a check box approach for every custom field but it should be possible when adding a new field to have the option to select an existing custom field rather than defining a new field

Wild Apricot Support (Pavel Scherbinsky) has provided a workaround for this that works well:
You should be able to use this JavaScript code to replace the waitlist message:
<script type="text/javascript">
jq$('.WaGadgetEvents .infoRegistrationIsSoldOut').each(function(){
var textNode = $(this);
textNode.html(textNode.html().replace(/.+/gi, "CUSTOM TEXT"));
});
</script>
Just replace CUSTOM TEXT with a text of your choice and copy it into the editor field at Settings > Site > Global JavaScript. -

Merged several posts together, so that both public and admins lists can be customized. This is better for analysis and design to work on them together.

I agree that it would be extremely useful to make the display on the Public view fully customizable. Date of registration is irrelevant for us, but I would not want email addresses or photos. We would like to be able to sort by registration type, showing the registration type as a heading and providing sub-totals of the number registered for each type. Hopefully this is achievable with the changes you are considering

Hi Evgeny, my question is about understanding how the forum operates. Occasionally I notice that you or Dmitry ask members to 'vote' on an idea. Is voting achieved by just posting a reply or is there some other way for the community to cast a vote in favour of the change or against it?
I suppose what I am looking for is a list of all suggestions that are 'up for vote' where I can go and cast a simple: Yes, No or 'Happy either way', perhaps with a short comment box

Is there somewhere in the community where requests for feedback or voting are summarised or can be identified? I find it difficult to locate my own threads where the community has been asked its opinion let alone others
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I don't think that there is any doubt that it is confusing - the question is whether or not soemthing should be done about it and if so what?
Is it possible to change this using global javascript or CSS?

A number of my members, who are also event organisers, have found the use of the term 'public view' confusing and did not immediately realize that the button 'To public view' in fact takes you to the Member view.
Given the title of this thread, would it not be more correct and less confusing if the button were to read 'To Member view'

I came across a posting on 17th January 2012 from Frank, User Experience Designer (WA) that provides a CSS workaround that appears to work a treat
It does the job for us by removing the registration label from the bullets that appear below the heading Registration in the registration box that appears on the front page of each event. For the events that have multiple registrations, we now need to include in the registration description some of the text that previously appeared in the registration label - not a problem
The change applies to all events that appear on the PageID specified in the CSS code (the PageID can be found in Page management)
Thanks Frank

This is also addressed in 24159 http://forums.wildapricot.com/forums/308932-wishlist/suggestions/8826691-do-not-mark-as-free-events-which-involve-expense
We are a golfing society that has around forty fixtures per year at various golf clubs in the UK. We want as many Members as possible to register for events to show their availability for selection. We do not charge for events via the web site, we collect all fees due on the day and pay the golf club directly. The society does not get involved in the finances so we set up all events as 'free' to avoid invoicing issues
We use the event and registration type descriptions to explain the pricing of the event so having the Register panel next to each event displaying '- Free' is confusing and distracting.
We would like to have the facility to add fields to the registration form that don't show up when a member registers. The fields would be for completion by the event organizer only. At present we add the fields with a message to leave them blank. They appear at the bottom of the form but look odd to members and they have to scroll past them to click the Next button
This could be dealt with by having different registration forms for different registration types as has been requested by many other Wild Apricot customers. However, the option of registration fields that are only visible to admin might be easier to implement and might address some of the requirements stated by others in this thread
