Quick Role Sign-Up: Misleading role availability in drop-down

Our members have noticed that when using the Quick Role Sign-Up, all roles appear "available" in the Select a Meeting Role drop-down if the member's attendance is either "Uncertain" or "Not Attending". They must first set their attendance to "Attending" for the roles to accurately reflect their filled/available status in the drop-down.

Perhaps this is intentional, but it's confusing because on the agenda, it is not necessary that a member first set their attendance. Furthermore, it is possible to sign-up for a role in the Quick Role Sign-Up without first setting ones attendance; however, the [Take Role] button will only appear when the role is selected if it is *actually* available. If the role showing "available" is not actually available, then the [Take Role] button does not appear. Signing up for a role *does* set attendance to "Attending", and thus after that, the drop-down reflects the correct role filled status.

I don't recall it working this way in the past, and verified it behaves the same on multiple browsers. Due to these, we wanted to request this be addressed so that the role drop-down accurately display the role-filled-status, regardless of the logged-in member's attendance setting at the selected meeting.

Using MS Edge, when I go to the Quick Role Sign ups for a meeting date on which I am marked as uncertain, the roles that have been taken are greyed out and the names of the role holders are displayed
Please provide your club number and an agenda date and role and member name (first name will suffice) for which you are observing this behaviour
