Low pri: partial searches on leadership positions

I just updated a dozen or so leadership positions for our troop, and found myself typing some partial words to look up leadership roles, e.g., gui [sic] for Troop Guide, or pat to list the various ...Patrol... positions.

It’d be swell if SB+ supported this kind of partial searching

@MichaelPomraning

I don’t understand. All youth leadership positions are in a dropdown menu.

@edavignon , thanks. Yes, the dropdown is scrollable, but also searchable, with 30+ positions to choose from. Right now the searchable part is a prefix match only. (Again, this is a very minor behavior enhancement I’d like to see.)

Today’s behavior:

Search for pat matches:

  Patrol Leader

Search for gu matches:

  (nothing)

Desired behavior:

Search for pat matches:

  Assistant Patrol Leader
  Assistant Senior Patrol Leader
  Patrol Leader
  Senior Patrol Leader

Search for gu matches:

  Troop Guide

@MichaelPomraning

Understood. I will request this be added to the backlog.

We cannot say if or when Scouting America IT will schedule this for development work. Watch Scoutbook - Scoutbook Plus Change Log - Scouting Forums for an announcement of a fix.

@MichaelPomraning

I just tested this in prod. Here are the results. Where are you not seeing this behavior? These screen shots are from the Scout’s Add Leadership page.


I found it. Quick Entry is not working the same way. I’ll get it reported.
