Troopmaster invite links are customized to the recipient's email.
¶ The bad part is that you can't cut and paste a registration link, or forward a registration link to a friend. They would be registering as you instead of themselves.
To send out a registration invite including a personalized registration link:
- Go to the event's page in Troopmaster (Activities -> Activity Management -> Click on the activity you want)
- Click the "edit" button. If you don't have edit access, contact the troop web admin or scoutmaster
- Click the blue "Schedule Email Reminder" button
- Pick a recipient list. Normally the best list is "Members" under the Email Group pull-down
- Choose some dates to send the invite
- Put a date in the "Exact Date" box to the right. If you put today's date, the invite will be sent within the next hour
- Also send an invite about 3 weeks ahead of time
- You can edit what the invite says to include other information people might need, but make sure the special information fields in ALL_CAPS are still there - Troopmaster fills those in with important information about the trip. The REGISTRATION_LINK field will be replaced with the registration link people will need.
Registration links are also sent out in the weekly newsletter for all events that are open for registration
