When I input our events for the 2025-2026 season, I selected the Auto Add Future checkbox for all our regular pack events. But as we have recruited new families, it has not been adding them to the events.

We are expecting to add a scout here and there for the next several months. It’s incredibly onerous to have to edit each individual event every time we have 1 scout join the pack.

We’ve been told it was just fixed yesterday for new events going forward. The previously created events will require manual updates.

ETA Correction: any new members going forward will automatically be added to previously created events with the appropriate auto add box checked.

Is there a window of dates where this didn’t take? Like if you added a new event over the last 2 weeks you would need to manual updates. I have a hundred plus events over 10 months and all boxes checked.

@TJCline I misspoke, it’s actually new members added to the unit going forward will be added automatically. So, you don’t have to babysit all old events going forward forever. I’ll edit be response above, too.

@RickHillenbrand

Developers have requested MIDs of Scouts and adults that were not added, when they joined and enough details on the calendar event so they can find it.

SUAC only needs the Member IDs, @RickHillenbrand, not the names. The forums are world-readable, so they’re trying to minimize the amount of PII that hits here.
