In reply to: [Wired Impact Volunteer Management] About Adding FieldsGood luck with the coding. It will require a decent knowledge of PHP and WordPress coding practices, but hopefully you can figure out something that will work well for you.
I’m not exactly sure what you mean by “Another quick question… can I get a list of all the opportunities. It seems to display them in a page at a time. Can that be quickly changed to ‘all’ at once?” To display the opportunities on your website, you’ll need to include the following shortcodes in the page content either through the Visual Editor (pre-WordPress 5.0) or through the Shortcode block (post-WordPress 5.0): [one_time_volunteer_opps] (for one-time opportunities) or [flexible_volunteer_opps] (for flexible opportunities). It’s important to note, you shouldn’t include both types of opportunities on the same page. Please list only one of the shortcodes on each page.
I hope that’s helpful. Let us know what other questions you have.

In reply to: [Wired Impact Volunteer Management] About Adding FieldsThanks a lot for the kind words @pscjwilliams. It’s always great to hear our plugin is helping organizations better mobilize their volunteers.
Unfortunately, I don’t have great news for you in regards to the customizations you asked for. The system doesn’t include the ability to add custom fields to the interest form. We’ve had organizations set something like this up in the past, but they’ve required custom coding. If the custom fields are critical to your organization my best recommendation would be to work with your web developer to utilize a tool like Gravity Forms, then code it to integrate with the volunteer system. If that isn’t possible then it might be worth looking at using a different plugin entirely to allow your potential volunteers to express interest.
In regards to tagging volunteer opportunities, the situation is similar. There is no tagging system within the plugin, but it is possible with custom coding. I’d recommend discussing this with your web developer to see what’s possible.
I’m sorry I don’t have better news for you. Let us know if you have any other questions.

In reply to: [Wired Impact Volunteer Management] Time Slots in OpportunityNo problem @skuglin. Let me know if there is anything else we can do to help.

In reply to: [Wired Impact Volunteer Management] Time Slots in OpportunityThanks for reaching out @skuglin. There isn’t a way to include multiple time slots for one opportunity. In the past others have solved this by creating a new opportunity for each time slot. If that’s not ideal, I’d recommend taking a look at the PTA Volunteer Sign Up Sheets plugin. I think that plugin provides more flexibility in regards to time slots.
I hope that’s helpful. Let us know if you have any other questions.

In reply to: [Wired Impact Volunteer Management] Change URL for pluginThis is definitely possible. We’ve added a hook into the plugin to make it happen. To adjust this you’ll want to add this code into the functions.php file of your active theme:
function wi_change_volunteer_opp_url_slug( $slug ){ return 'REPLACE-WITH-YOUR-URL-SLUG'; // Originally set to 'volunteer-opportunity' } add_filter( 'wivm_opp_rewrite', 'wi_change_volunteer_opp_url_slug' );After you add that code make sure you refresh your URLs by going to Settings >> Permalinks and clicking the blue “Save Changes” button (you don’t need to change anything) within the admin.
Let us know how that goes for you and good luck.
Since we haven’t heard back in a little while we’re going to go ahead and mark this resolved. As always, if you have any questions don’t hesitate to let us know.
I’m happy to hear you were able to resolve this @elrico13. And thanks a ton for posting your solution for others. That’s really helpful.

In reply to: [Nonprofit Board Management] Re-design board-listThanks for reaching out @soulgod and sorry it took a few days to get back to you after the holidays.
The best way to modify the design of the
[list_board_members]shortcode layout is to copy the file within the plugin at templates/list-board-members.php to your current theme’s folder and adjust the code there. That will ensure any changes you make won’t be wiped out when the plugin is updated. Of course, you will need a basic knowledge of PHP, HTML and CSS to work with this file, but it sounds like you’re comfortable with that.I hope that’s helpful. As always, let us know if you have any other questions.

In reply to: [Gravity Forms Constant Contact] PHP 7.2 CompatibilityNo problem @evster. It’s incredibly odd and we have no idea why the update doesn’t always appear. Thanks for the note on deactivating. Hopefully that helps make it a less manual process for folks.

In reply to: [Gravity Forms Constant Contact] PHP 7.2 CompatibilityHey folks, wanted to hop in here since this one confused our team a little. Make sure you are using the latest version of the plugin, which should be version 3.1.1. For some reason we had a few sites that were using a really old version, but WordPress wasn’t noting that there was an available update.
Once you update to the newest version there shouldn’t be any PHP compatibility issues at all. When we tested the plugin it passed without a problem.

In reply to: [Wired Impact Volunteer Management] no signup buttonThanks for reaching out @digitalclouds and I’m sorry you’re not able to see the signup form. It’s hard to tell from only looking at the link, but I would guess it’s related to the theme you all are using. Is it possible for you to switch back to the default Twenty Seventeen theme for a short time to see if that fixes the problem?
Let me know how that goes. If it fixes the issue then it’s likely your theme may be causing the issue.

Thanks for getting back to me @phpbits. I’m a little confused since on the free version it looks like there are checkboxes for the custom post type archives under the “Taxonomies” >> “Taxonomies +/-” section. Sorry if I’m confused about how this should work. Let me know if I’m not understanding.
