Age and Gender Filtering, Option Re-Ordering/Hiding Added
Nov 16, 2013

As promised in the Nov 4th news note (http://www.zone4.ca/News.asp?ID=77) Zone4 has been working on further upgrades to the Club Registration system to help race organizers (and others) with some exciting new features.

Gender Filtered Options

On Single Choice Fee Group fields and Single Choice Option Group fields, you will now see a setting for Gender filtering.  To limit specific options to just one gender, select one of the two checkbox options.  Leaving both unchecked (or checked) will allow any gender to register in that category.  The visibility of the options is then keyed off of the Gender field choice elsewhere on the form.

Age Filtered Options

You will also notice age filtering options.  To limit an option such as a race category to just a specific age range, enter the Min and Max ages allowed for that category.  Ages were used instead of Year of Birth as age ranges will stay the same from year to year and so the work you do this year to specify all these settings won't have to be re-done next year when you copy the registration form. 

As well, by specifying ages, you also get to specify the Date on which you want their real age calculated.  Some races may want age ranges to be calculated as of December 31 of the current year while others may want ages calculated as of the race date.  This setting can be found in your main registration settings tab, in your "Optional Settings" section in the entry box called "Age Filters Calculation Date".  This is the only field that you may need to change next year when you make a copy of your current year's registration.

Option Re-Ordering

It was often requested that clubs have the ability to move options around in their list, or  insert new options anywhere in list, not just at the bottom.  This is now possible using the same drag-and-drop functionality found on main registration fields.  Simply click and hold the 'up-down' arrow icon of the desired row and drag and drop that row where the indicator shows the black line.

Option Hiding

Although it was previously possible to set a 'Limit Sold' on options to prevent people from choosing an option, it was never possible to 'hide' or delete an option entirely.  Although we cannot allow option deletion from a data safety perspective, we have now enabled a 'hide' feature so you can effectively remove an option from the public side of your registration.  Simply check the "Hide" column checkbox on the desired option and it will be hidden from both your preview and the public.  This can always be undone at anytime making the feature useful for option 'staging' as well.

We hope you enjoy and take advantage of the new features and we'll be in touch soon with more upgrades.

Sincerely, Zone4 Team
