Can you provide the embed code for the VBS video? We'd like to post it on our various media channels separate from the public page.

Answer

We have that video available on YouTube. You can embed the video from there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQNvokvEoBw

attachment

office 7 years ago updated by Brad B. (Answers in Genesis - Web Development) 7 years ago 1

Is there an option to attached additional form for parents to sign-off on? i.e. health forms or permission forms? would be great to have this functionality. thanks.

Answer

We don't support attachments, but if you put the documents on a publicly accessible place on the internet you can link to them.


On the Promote page, there is an :Edit Student Welcome Email" button. Click that to edit the message that appears in the email and the "Thank You" page that appears following registration. If you put full links (including the http:// or https://) in your message they will appear as clickable links.

Registration page - Registration button

AngelaLarson 7 years ago updated by Arthur L. (Answers in Genesis - Business Analyst) 7 years ago 1

I have had more than one person say they can't access the registration page however I think it may be the registration button. Is there any way to make it "idiot proof"? You know like adding a "'click here to register" phrase or something. I am thinking they may not realize it is a button.

Answer

Thanks for your feedback, we've passed it on to the design team to look into making the registration button more prominent on the public page.


Also, if you add /register/ to the end of your public page URL you can give people links directly to the registration form.

can i add a pdf to the registration form?

anny walker 7 years ago updated 7 years ago 3

I would like to add a PDF of our registration information packet for parents to print after they register; either to the reg form or to the student reg confirmation email. Is this possible?

Answer

I have good news. We discussed this, and have implemented a way for you to include hyperlinks in the "Thank You" pages and emails.


If you include a full link in the text of the student or volunteer email (starting with http:// or https://) it will now be turned into a clickable link on the confirmation page and email.

Student Registration Download sorting

Jen 7 years ago updated by Sooze 2 months ago 2

Can an option be added to download the Student Registration in order by Date Registered (with the Date/Time Registered field in the last column) in addition to a listing in alphabetical order? Or just include the Date/Time Registered field in the the far right column so that it can be sorted after download?

additional classes, subcategory of ages

Stacey 7 years ago updated by Arthur L. (Answers in Genesis - Business Analyst) 7 years ago 2

Is there a way, on my side (not the on-line registration side) to set up classes in each grade? For example. Grade 1: Class 1, Class 2, Class 3, etc. ; Grade 2: Class 1, Class 2, etc. Thanks!

Answer

Yes, that's correct. Teams are used to further organize students into multiple classes per grade.

To add a grade level, the knowledge base says you can edit the field.

Stacey 7 years ago updated by Brad B. (Answers in Genesis - Web Development) 7 years ago 1

I would like to add a few grade / age levels to our group, but the field is not set up to allow me to edit this.

VBS manager was easier to use.

Karen 7 years ago updated by Brad B. (Answers in Genesis - Web Development) 7 years ago 2

vbs manager was much more user friendly. I don't like this and can not figure out how to use it effectively. I have tired to figure this out several times. Need to know how to link with our website so workers and students can register.
