Event checkin tool

Access

How to use

  • Click the link above and login with your Google account that is a member of one of the groups with access.
  • Once you're logged in, give it a minute and it'll load a list of all of the upcoming classes.
  • Click on the class you're checking people in for and give it a minute to load the list of registrants.
  • When a registrant shows up for the class, click on the big red 'X' button next to their name and it will turn into a green check mark to indicate that they've been checked in.
    • If you accidentally click the wrong name, don't worry; just click it again and it will go back to a red 'X' and un-check them in
  • Please make sure that all the registrants are marked as paid and that they all have a waiver filled out.
    • If the checkin tool is showing that the registrant doesn't have a waiver, or that the waiver is an old waiver, have them fill one out.

Known issues

  • You'll probably get rejected if you are logged in with more than one gmail account. Open the tool in a private window to avoid this issue.

Feature requests

  • Digital/Online Waivers
    • Add a button to the waiver on file box for any member with no waiver or an old waiver that allows a new one to be filled out and then processed.

Event creation tool

Access

How to use

  • Once you have the application installed on your computer, open it.
    • You will have to log in using your MakeICT.org account.
  • Under the heading, there are three choices: Start with a Preset, Copy Existing, and Start from Scratch.
    • Start with Preset allows you to choose from three profiles: Certification, Workshop, and Class.
    • Copy Existing allows you to duplicate one of the last several events that were posted.
    • Start from Scratch gives you a clean, default form.
  • If the person requesting to host an event has filled out the Workshop Proposal Form, you should have all the information you need to post the event (with exception of a picture to use for the Facebook event page).
  • Now you're ready to enter the basic information.
    • The name of the event should be brief, but informative, and should include the name of the presenter.
      • If the event is generic, like a safety class, the name of the presenter is not necessary.
    • If the location is at MakeICT, put 1500 E. Douglas in the location field.
    • The description of the event can be taken from the Workshop Proposal (Response) form.
      • It should give details about what the attendee should expect to experience at the event.
      • It should also indicate whether they should bring special materials and if they need to be authorized in a certain area.
        • Simply adding "Required authorizations: Woodshop" at the bottom of the description will set a flag in the registration to tell the person they need to attend the safety class first.
    • As they say, timing is everything. Enter the date and time of the event. The RSVP settings dictate the cost for members and non-members.
  • Then, in the Cross Posting area, you can un-check any of the media check boxes if you do not want that type of post. Otherwise, hit "Create!" and watch the magic happen!
    • Windows will open, you will need to sign in to Wild Apricot, Facebook, and Meetup, but all the information will be filled out for you.
  • When it's done, the windows are left open for you to double check and publish.
    • In the Meetup window, scroll to the bottom and click "Announce".
    • In the calendar window, click on Rooms. ect and choose any rooms or resources that are needed for the event. Then save and close.
    • In the Facebook page, click "Publish".
  • Close all windows.
  • You're done. Wasn't that easy? :(
    • (Well it's better than the old way.)
  • Thanks to Dominic Canare for this really helpful tool!
