Error with Team settigs
I keep getting an Error message when trying to set up my teams. I first ran into the problem last week when I was adding teams. I thought it would be fixed by now. It's been almost a week and I get the same error message. Is this being worked on or is it something I am doing?
You have deleted all of your rotation stations. The teams page can't work without them. If you add your rotation stations, the teams settings will start working again.
The next update to the software will prevent users from deleting all their rotation stations to prevent this from happening.
BTW: I noticed your age groups aren't sorted. If you wish to sort them, they can be dragged-and-dropped into whatever order you choose. You can drag using the "four line" icon to the left of the age group.
If you run into more difficulty, please let us know right away so we can get things resolved for you quickly.
Nametags
Would it be possible to add a selection for printing name tags on Avery 5160 labels? We use those as our go to labels. Also I don't see a button to export the registration data, am I missing that? We send out a mailing after VBS and find that field very useful.
The ability to export your data to a CSV file is now available. There is a button on the Student and Volunteer pages.
Team Roster
I just Printed the Team Roster from the Manage Student Page. A couple of questions/concerns. First - and most important, I have a child registered with medical concerns but NO WHERE on the team roster does it indicate that. I feel is we are using that to keep track of teams allergy and medical information should be present on that. I haven't been able to find where that information imprinted so I can give that to team leaders and classroom teachers.
Also, we don't use all the check boxes for those purposes. Is there a way to customize them?
Export Managed Students
Is there an easy way to export a complete list of managed students with details?
Yes, go to People > Manage Students > Print Team Roster.
I noticed there is no missions coordinator option or checklist? Did I miss it?
Where is the completed or submit button for registration?
information on VBS web page.
I would like to be able to add more than just the date and location to the VBS web site and I can't edit the one paragraph that is pre-written.
That paragraph is editable. Just go to the Edit Public Page option under "Promote." You can type whatever you want in that section.
There is a known issue that is being corrected in the next update. The save button doesn't appear when you make changes only to the content section. You'll also need to change something else to get the save button to appear. An easy option is to flip the "Show video on public page" toggle back and forth to trigger the save button to appear at the top.
Ages instead of grades?
Our church has moved away from grade grouping to age groupings. We also include preschool in our VBS. Is there any way I can create teams to meet my criteria?
Absolutely. You can change the age groups to be whatever you want. Just go to into the settings section (there's a link at the bottom of the left menu) and select "Age Group Settings." You can rename the existing groups, delete any you don't need, and add whatever additional ones you do. You also can reorder them by dragging the icon at the left of each age group field.
Once you have your age groups defined, you'll probably want to go to the "Team Settings" to be sure ages are being assigned to teams the way you want,
We don't use teams
We do not group our children by teams but rather by grades/ages and our rotations do not work the same way. How can I edit this to work with out situation/
Coordinator email was sent, but the coordinator can't see the event after she made an account
I added my coworker as a coordinator for our VBS, but once she went through the process of making an account, she has no access to the event. I resent the invite, but it still isn't working.
