Extension 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

  • Calendar Import from CSV file You can import calendar events using a CSV file
  • Calendar Export to CSV
  • Calendar Messaging You can select invitees based on their RSVP status to send them messages. You can select attendees based on Attendance status to send them messages.

Could you please write for Troopmaster file import. This is great, but not helpful for me. Thanks in advance.

As I am an Apple person, I may still need help to get it to the chrome web store. Or can add as another extension, just modifying the input format to suit to above. Meantime, I will also try to get Troopmaster guys to write this and publicize the availability in their webpage. Thank you for this great extension to Chrome, even though I cannot use it, but for showing the possibilities to the rest of us.
