Summary

This tool extends several feature capabilities of Scoutbook.

Disclaimer: This tool was created by a Scouting Volunteer who spent his own time and energy to "Do a good turn" and help fellow Scouters out. It is not a product of the Scoutbook development team nor is supported by BSA. If it helps you out, terrific. If you find issues or have questions or would like to see it tweaked, please contact me so I can get them fixed.

What is it? The focus of this extension is to provide time saving features to users of the Scoutbook Tool. It is hoped that the life of this tool will be short and that Scoutbook is able to integrate these feature concepts. This tool is simply an interim workaround to some needed features.

Until then, there is a great need to have the following included features.

Calendar

  • Repeating Events. You can create, edit and delete repeating calendar events (no longer available when calendar is migrated out of Scoutbook)
  • Copy Event. You can copy existing events to a new date. (no longer available when calendar is migrated out of Scoutbook)
  • Calendar Import from CSV file You can import calendar events using a CSV file (no longer available when calendar is migrated out of Scoutbook)
  • Calendar Export to CSV (no longer available when calendar is migrated out of Scoutbook)
  • Calendar Messaging You can select invitees based on their RSVP status to send
