TOPIC:

We have a new agenda item that can have any of three different "items"- humor/joke, poem, or Slido. When people sign up for it, it would be nice to have a field they can fill in to designate what they will be doing, e.g., joke, poem, etc. I've looked at the manual and searched the docs and support requests, and I don't see it although I could have missed it. We aren't rotating on a schedule- people simply choose what they want.
Thanks!

Moved to Improvement Suggestions

We have the same: a few small segments we rotate. It'd be really handy if the members could name the topic directly themselves (joke, inspirational, what the world needs to know, book/movie review).
What's FTH development team's view on this, how feasible would it be to implement?

FTH development team's view

"team" ... LOL...  that would be me, I guess. 

My assessment is that this would only be of value to a few clubs and cost / benefit ratio is high (cost is my spare time & effort) relative to other things I could work on, so this is very low priority.

However, if enough other people post in favor of it, I may be swayed.  

This is basically the way I approach what to prioritize in terms of new features and functionality... I need to be persuaded that a lot of clubs would benefit relative to the amount of spare time & effort I would have to expend.

We have a similar role called "Member's Choice"
If you mark the role as "The person assigned to this role can edit this meeting agenda", the member will be able to edit the item (or any other on the agenda).  Some clubs use this approach to allow the Wordmaster or Grammarian to enter the Word for the meeting.

The ability for a member to edit the agenda would function as a good workaround. I was hoping to keep the edit rights to the minimum to reduce the exposure surface for mistakes but will need to think about this.

It's a little messier on the agenda but to limit access to the full edit you could use the speech assignment for this. The members who signs up can put the item they are doing in the 'Project Title' box.

That's an interesting idea, but I'm reluctant. As far as I can see the Project is a "select from a dropdown" list of Pathways projects, not a fillin the blank. One could put in a project title and leave the dropdown blank. My larger concern is mixing anything with speeches relating to our educational progress. I'd like to keep that focused. Or am I missing something? As to Pam's suggestion to give broader editing capability to whoever signs up, I'm a bit reluctant. But thinking...
Steve- I hear you and I don't have enough information to know what's a priority so I have to mostly leave that to you.
