Recent Updates

Added new tools for the admin users for individual and unit user types. Admins can now transfer accounts between the two types, and can edit den and individual details.

Added new ways for admin to see class registrations and numbers in the class editor.

Cleaned up some older and messy records, added cleanup methods to help the system run a little quicker and smoother.

1.4.3

Resolved 2 security issues and 18 class and registration bugs.

1.4.1 and 1.4.2

Fixed a number of issues with the class registration system, including how the system counts open spots and reports waitlists.

1.4.0

The activity library has been added. Activities are system wide entities that can be offered as classes for member registration (such as merit badge registration). You only need to put any specific activity in the system once.

Schedule builder in the events section now allows for the building of schedules, made up of periods and days. Admin can specify and label any number of periods and days, which create the block schedule that classes can be set in.

Classes can now be created and modified. When enabled, admin can create and modify classes, which are tied to activities. Classes are opened to leaders on any date specified, and leaders can register unit member on their event rosters for these classes.

Individual payment pages now give admin the ability to edit payments, including the registration they are applied to. Payment changes now notify leaders.

The email notification service has seen major improvements including 43 bug fixes relating to incompatibilities with Microsoft Outlook 2002 and 2007, and Gmail. Emails can now be sent to all leaders of any given unit and the foundation for select groups has been prepared for future updates. Other fixes have been made to help prevent spam flagging by Hotmail and Yahoo. The WYSIWYG script has been updated and better integrated for basic HTML capabilities in emails.

Date picker and search bug fixes and incompatibilities with Internet Explorer 8 have been made. The site works better with IE 8+, but still has a series of issues with the register and multiple admin sections.

Methods for accessing certain data in the database have been updated, allowing for page increases and reduced database connection loads. An encoding bug for the events table has been resolved as well.

2 security issues have been resolved and the CSRF methods have been revamped. An issue preventing CSRF failures when a JSON request has been resolved as well.

Multiple API calls available have been added and older calls have been set up to allow for the return of a status code or redirect to a specified URI.

1.3.8

Added the ability for administrators to message event and session participants. Added new messaging capabilities and a framework for waitlist notifications.

Resolved display issues with the admin payments and event registrations layouts, and updated the sortable tables scripts.

Added the members foundation for the members and roster aspects of the system, allowing users to maintain a running roster in Camper available to events for activity registration.

1.3.0

The groups aspect of the site has been more fully integrated, from it's addition to the csv downloads and reports to the registration and event listings. Group limits are now validated in signup and registration number updates, and disable on use.

The mail system has been updated with a new template to help combat messages ad notifications heading to spam. The messages also include contact details to comply with new standards for email communication.

The administrators interface now includes a more functional dashboard and the invite system is included in the units and users section.

Multiple user interface changes to help make the site run a little more smoothly.

Registering for events that have multiple groups (like camps at BDSR for summer camp) has became a lot easier. A new interface for registering for a group within a session now keeps track of numbers so you can see how many spots are available. The groups aspect of the admin area now includes new tools to see registration numbers. Soft limits have also been introduced.

Added new payment options for administrators including a refund parameter for non-Paypal payments. Added a printable confirmation page that should be sent in with check payments, detailing addresses and what to do next. Refined the payment interface and resolved a negative amount bug.

Multiple bug and security issue fixes. Worked on the csrf functionality giving security check errors caused by ajax requests, not fully implemented.
