Most people today like conversing with others/groups on their time, through channels they're comfortable with. Examples are email, text (SMS), and Facebook Messenger. A prior CMS I used had the capability for small group leaders to start a communication thread on the CMS site with those in their group and the following would happen:The message would start a thread on the "group feed" for all members to see and reply toAn email notification of the message would automatically be sent to all group membersMembers could click a link in the email directing them to the site and the specific group...

Exporting grids to Excel currently represents boolean values as "true" and "false". This makes it difficult to look at the spreadsheet and quickly identify the relevant data.

Reporting "X" for true and "" (empty string) for false would eliminate the necessity of doing global replacements on every export we do.

(See SetExcelValue() in Rock.Utility.ExcelHelper. Create a special case for "exportValue is bool || exportValue is bool?".)

We are fundraising for a youth ministry trip this summer and for families that want to send thank you notes it would be easier if Parents automatically could see their kids fundraising page.

I would like the ability to sort the Registrant tab and Group Placement tab by the order/date-time of registration like the Registration tab is by default. When assigning groups, sometimes we need to assign them on a first come first served basis similar to waitlist, but the registration date is not shown in this tab so there is no ability to sort the people by that.

Our accounting department has requested the ability to assign a main account to a batch so that any transactions within it will have the account auto-selected. We were able to add an entity attribute and then code the transaction detail block to suggest an account if one was selected at the batch level. Now they want to begin to use the check scanning tool, but we don't have access to the code for that tool. It would be super helpful for our personalized entity attributes to be available to edit as the batch is being created through the check scanner tool.

On the Connection Request Detail, it would greatly increase productivity if (1) SMS-enabled phone numbers were tagged with an fa-comments icon (as they are on the main person detail page) and (2) the icon were hyperlinked to take you to the New Communication page.

(We can make the second part work with a simple script added to the Post HTML section of the block, but only if the icon (or some other marker) already exists to indicate an SMS-enabled phone number. I don't see a way to get at that without forking the code-behind for the block.)

We have the check-in manager open in multiple classrooms so the teachers can view the list of children currently in their room. Occasionally someone accidentally closes a room because they either don’t understand how this field works or they accidentally click it. It would be great if security controls could be put in this field so the check-in manager was available to all the teachers but only certain roles or users could close a classroom. If security controls are too ‘messy’, perhaps whenever a user tries to close or open a room, a pop-up prompt to enter the PIN used in...

It would be amazing if leadership could assign new staff members to watch specific RockU videos that are important to their job. Then those videos showed up as a check-list with a due date when that person signed in. What would make this even better is if we could set a standard "rock training" that all staff has to watch.

I would like to suggest that the core team work closely with the team at Transnational to deliver a solution that makes reconciling batches in Transnational with Rock easier for the staff team. Generally I would not support a feature that is primarily focused on making a staff members job easier but in this case it seems like churches are throwing a lot of time into this and have all invested in different ways / solutions to try and accomplish it. Other providers (PushPay, Onlinegiving.org, etc) have been able to accomplish this.The largest issue seems to be that the bank...

In New Zealand there is no need to list every transaction making up the total of donations on Contribution Statements.I suggest that the 'Available Contribution Statements' block on the Giving History page have the options:[ 2019 YTD]  [ 2018 ]  [ 2017 ]                     List all transactions? [  yes / NO  ]  and that maybe the Summary Report be the default.OR - on the block settings of the Contribution Statement Lava block settings, above "Display Pledges" also provide the option for "Display transactions" [ yes/no].  But this option doesn't give a user the...
