publishing vbs to church website
I entered all the info for our Public Page, and followed the directions to "publish", however it does not appear on our website. Can anyone help me with this?
I am trying to add a Director to my event
I am trying to add Debbie Townsley to my event. When she gets the email and clicks on to add an account, it doesn't link her to the Christ Community Church event. It only asks her to create her own event. How can I link her in?
Registration form
Hi, I would like to add T-shirt size on the registration page. In the knowledge base, it indicates that I should be able t go to settings > Forms and do this. However, I looks like I may need to upgrade to VBS Director Pro. If that's the case, I can do it (depending on the cost). However, when I click the upgrade button, it doesn't do anything.
My link is below:

For this first year of MyAnswers Director, we're giving everyone access to all Pro features. I'm not sure why your event wasn't set up for that. However, I have upgraded your event. So now you have access to all the features, including custom forms.
Custom questions on registration form do not recognize carriage return.
I am trying to add a custom question that has multiple paragraphs. Although the carriage return shows up on the admin side of things, it is just one solid block of text on the public page.
I updated those fields to preserve the line breaks, so it should look better now.
I can't see my public page
I have published my "Public Page", but whenever I navigate to the link (as a regular user would), I am directed to my "Director Checklist" page. Help!
The bug that prevented "vbs" from working as a page name from working has been corrected.
Where can I find the map to locate other VBS Events near me?
I am looking for the map of VBS events by location so I know which churches in my area are using Operation Arctic. Is there a link?
Yes, you can find that here: https://myanswers.com/events/
Creating small groups or crews out of my grade level teams
I have grade level teams. Within each team I need to create small groups or crews. Is there a way to automatically create the small groups out of the larger groups? Or even a drag and drop feature? or do I have to do this manually once I print a roster?
I found another online software called VBS Pro that has this feature and I was hoping that you offered it as well.
The map is not showing up on my page?
I have set up my church's addresses and yet the map is not loading?
Is there a way to make a field "required" that says no and does not have a way to edit it? Also, is there a way to change the order that the fields appear on the form?
For example, the Email field is listed as not being required, and there is not an option to edit it. I just want to make it a required field.
Also, the phone number for the Emergency Contact - I would like to clarify that by labeling it "Emergency Contact Phone"
Hi Patti, I have made these changes to your event. Please let me know if you need any more assistance.
Can volunteers see where other volunteers sign up
In order to have our volunteer spots filled, we have the option for people to choose the team they are volunteering for. Is there a way for the volunteers to see where other volunteers have signed up?
Volunteers do not have access to see any data in VBS Director. So, they can't see what positions are filed.
If you wish to encourage people to request certain roles, you could put a message on the volunteer registration form with your needs. You can put a "Display only test field" on the form with your message to new registrants. This message wouldn't be automatically updated to reflect new registrants, but you can manually update it at any time.
