Changing "Not Required" to Required

Jenniffer Hatfield 8 years ago updated by Arthur L. (Answers in Genesis - Business Analyst) 7 years ago 1

Is there a way to change both the address and e-mail address to a required field?  I would like to make it a required field.

Answer

Yes, I just made the address field required for you (You can do this yourself under Settings -> Forms). We can't set your email fields to be required without doing so for all events, though--that's why you aren't able to edit those.

Who can track attendance?

lpilalas 8 years ago updated by Arthur L. (Answers in Genesis - Business Analyst) 8 years ago 2

How can I give volunteers at the registration access to attendance?

Answer

Just got additional information:

The Team Leader coordinator position lets people take attendance. When you invite them, you choose which teams they get access to. So you can have each team leader take care of their own team, or give them access to all the teams' attendance.

How can I embed the countdown timer?

Jamie 8 years ago updated by Arthur L. (Answers in Genesis - Business Analyst) 8 years ago 1
Answer

The countdown timer can be embedded by going to Promote -> Promotion Tools, copying the code for the countdown timer, and pasting it onto your website. I don't know what type of website you have or how it's set up, but if it's a template-based one you may have to first click an insert HTML button or otherwise enable HTML code where you paste it.

volunteer roles and volunteer sign ups

Becky 8 years ago updated by Arthur L. (Answers in Genesis - Business Analyst) 8 years ago 1

On the volunteer roles you have to put a number of how many of each you need.  Does these numbers subtract when people sign up to volunteer?

Answer

No they don't, thanks for the suggestion though! Right now the process is pretty manual; that number is more for your reference than anything. You can manually adjust the number needed as people sign up and roles are filled. When you have enough in a role you can change its name to something like "Team Leader (All Positions Filled)" to let people know that you aren't looking for any more for that role.

Attendance after the fact

Sikes1995 8 years ago updated by Arthur L. (Answers in Genesis - Business Analyst) 7 years ago 3

No one tracked attendance on the director page last night during vbs. Is there no way I can enter the attendance for last night today?

Answer

Our apologies for the inconvenience, but no, that's not possible right now. We do have plans to add retroactive attendance tracking (among other improvements) to this feature—we are certainly not finished with building it out—but I can't make any promises or give a time frame for when we'd get to this specific improvement.
