Welcome! This forum has a treasure trove of great info – Scouters helping Scouters! Just a heads up, though - all content, information, and opinions shared on this forum are those of the author, not the BSA.
In the new calendar, how do you print the permission slip for your scout? I see in an event that permission slips are required. I pressed SHIFT and hit the refresh icon in Chrome. I deleted all cookies and history and reauthenticated into the new calendar page. I switched my view between the Assistant Scoutmaster and parent, and I still cannot find where I would print out a permission slip. I have tried this with several different events on our calendar. Here is the link for one of them if this is a bug: Internet Advancement.
Also, where can we find a help system explaining standard features of the new calendar so we can train our Scout, parent, and leader users? I do not want to have to chase down everything in this forum, and with nearly 1 million Scouts in the organization, we should not all be figuring this out for ourselves.
The parent selects the Parent role in the upper right corner of the IA window. On the calendar Event Information page the Download Permission Slip link should appear.
What’s odd is a few of our parents see the link (one emailed me a screen shot from her phone) but most of us do not see that, even if we clear cookies and reload the page. On her screen shot, there is a block on the page between the “Back to Calendar” link and the Event Information block.
As of yesterday, the permission slips are now appearing in the calendar events in the location others have mentioned. I want so share thanks to the developers who resolved the issue.
