MyConferenceTime admins can specify custom, pre-defined responses for parents to choose when signing up for conferences.
For example, if your school is offering the choice of in-person, virtual or phone conferences, you can enter these options for one of your fields. In our directions below, we will walk through setting up a field so that parents can choose the type of conference they plan to attend.
- Log in as a MyConferenceTime admin
- Go to Admin Options -> Fields
- Scroll to one of the fields that has a checkbox for "Custom Drop-Down Responses"
- Check the box for "Custom Drop-Down Responses
- In the text field that appears after you check the box for "Custom Drop-Down Responses," enter the choices that you are offering for parents to select when signing up
A few notes:- Enter one choice per line
- Responses will be displayed to parents in the order displayed in your text field
- Parents can select only one option when signing up
- If including English and Spanish, include both on the same line
- To see how your drop-down menu will appear, press the "preview" button.
After pressing the "preview" button, you will see your drop-down menu. - To return to a "text field" instead of a drop-down menu, uncheck the "Custom Drop-Down Responses" checkbox
- When finished, press the save button at the bottom
