EASY CHANGE....

change the line under the comment box to encourage commenting for confirms...
The example below shows how we use it with moderate success.
It's all about training and club culture.

SUPER EASY REQUEST
CHANGE
This is a great place to let the other members know if you cannot make the meeting.

TO
This is a a great place to let club members know you are CONFIRMING your role (or unable to attend).

EXAMPLE
Meeting Notes:
Becky Casey CL: Unable to attend; meeting conflict at this time.
Nancy Bateman DTM: Confirming as EVALUATOR 3.

We all would love to believe all club members will be in attendance and graciously tell us in advance if they for some reason will not, but that's not reality. This wee change will help clubs build culture of affirmation, commitment and communication.
THANK YOU!

MOST EXCELLENT: This post has had 70+ views.

HOW TO ENGENDER CHANGE
If you want this change implemented - please post something here that CONFIRMS that. Our FTH volunteer programmers look for endorsement or consensus before making changes.

If you want a CONFIRMATION toggle on the roles implemented in the long run - note that also.
THANK YOU!

When I get some available time to do it. My point is that I frequently already have an approach in mind for these things. It is not a matter of a lack of ideas, it is a matter of a lack of spare time to implement. (The picture I posted above is just a mockup--no functioning.)

Our club recently started using the website "agenda" feature to plan our meetings. The website is great except for that missing "confirm" button... Your mock up below looks great! A confirm button and the ability to type a comment would be fantastic. I know you volunteer your time for this and really appreciate it. Thanks!

You can type in meeting notes *now*. Are you talking about something different?

I was not aware that the comment section was available to edit by all members? The comment box allows me to edit it by clicking on the small edit pencil in the upper right corner. From what I've been told by other members this edit pencil is not available to them... is this correct or do they just not see it? I was guessing that the edit pencil was only viewable by club officers?
