Several TeeTimeHelper admins e-mailed us asking how to add a custom question to their members when they RSVP.
For example, it may be helpful to know if your members are walking or riding. Or perhaps you would like to know if they are staying for lunch.
We now have the solution - you can add Custom Questions and Answer Choices to your event. On the event creation page click on "Add a Custom Question" and you will be presented with the following fields:
You specify the question and answers your members can select |
Your questions and answers are presented to your users in a drop down display - they must select one of your answer choices to RSVP yes for the event.
Your members see this dropdown when they RSVP |
On the event status page you will see the answers next to each golfer in parenthesis:
Your status page indicates the answers selected |
Custom Question and Answer Choices Tips
1. Be brief! Short questions and short answers are best. There is limited space to display the answer for each members so a one or two word answer is desirable.
2. Avoid Yes/No Questions. It's much easier to interpret the answer on the status page as "Walking" instead of "Yes"
3. The Question and Answer Choices are editable at any time, but please avoid changing the question or answer choices. The members who already responded will keep their original choice and have it displayed, so changing the question or answers can cause confusion.
As always, send us a message if you have any questions!

Can you do more than one custom question?
ReplyDeleteAt this time TeeTimeHelper supports one custom question with up to 3 prefilled answers
DeleteThe software allow golfers to cancel their reservation at any time and then notify the waiting list member there is an open tee time? Does it randomly set up teams of 4 and allow some flexibility in moving golfers from one foursome to another? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteGolfers can change their reservation at any time (provided the event is not locked). You can use the 'Randomize' feature to mix up the golfers in your group. As admin, you can move golfers to any tee time
DeleteWhen a slot opens up TeeTimeHelper will automatically move the first member on the waiting list into the open slot.
