New Look for OnlineSignupSheet.com!

Mobile devices are now one of the most significant ways people interact with the internet. Although OnlineSignupSheet.com was usable on mobile devices, it was not the easiest to use. That changes today.

We are excited to announce a brand new look for OnlineSignupSheet.com. We rebuilt the member side of OnlineSignupSheet.com to not only be more modern looking, but to also be responsive to mobile devices.

Some email process and format changes...

All email addresses must now be verified before use

One of the unique design decisions we made for OnlineSignupSheet.com is to base all sign ups on families, and not on individual users. We feel that, for most small group logistics, it is the family signing up to participate, whether that be for little league, scouting, or study groups.

When families accept invites to join an OnlineSignupSheet.com group, only one participant in that family usually accepts the invite, which allows us to ensure that family members email address was correct (how else would that family member have accepted the email based invite?). This left any other participant email addresses in that family unverified, that is, we were not sure that email address was correct.

Changing Email

It happens; for one reason or another, someone may need to change their email address. It could be that you've changed internet providers, moved job location, or just decided that you no longer want your college email address to follow you into "adulthood." Being an email based service, in order to fully utilize your OnlineSignupSheet.com groups you MUST update the email address associated with your account. The good news is that this is a very easy process.

How to represent "Work Shifts" for Service Projects

OnlineSignupSheet.com makes managing the resources, people and tools, you need to run service projects quite easy.

I was recently contacted by a leader who wanted to allow multiple families to signup for shifts for an upcoming service project (a setup shift, a serve shift, and a tear down shift). In addition, she wanted to allow those same families to sign up for multiple shifts. She asked how to best represent that in OnlineSignupSheet.com. I replied: Quantity Signup Sheet Items. We discussed Quantity Signup Sheet Items briefly before, but let's show how to use Quantity Signup Sheet items for this example of work shifts.
