Wild Apricot Tips and Tricks
Our new website is powered by software called Wild Apricot. Here are some Tips and Tricks for getting more out of your CONC membership.
1. Get your profile up to date! This is particularly important if you are interested in being notified for volunteer opportunities or want to get an email when a new ski or snowshoe event posts. If you haven't looked at your profile yet, log in to the CONC website and check it out. For more information on how to do this, check out this article.
2. Are you not getting emails when new events post? See #2 above and get your profile up to date.
3. Use the Search Bar! At the very top of the webpage, there's a search bar. Search for whatever you are interested in. For instance, if you want to see all the help articles, just type "FAQ" in the search bar.
4. There is an app for that! You can find the app "Wild Apricot for members" in the App Store or Google Play. It's an easy way to keep track of Events and to keep your profile up to date. Registering for an event, looking at the list of events and the list of which events you are registered for, and cancelling your registration if you can't make it are all much easier in the app. However, one limitation is that you can't add yourself to the waitlist through the app; you have to go to the CONC website for that.
Here is more information about the app:
App for Android
App for iOS
Note: CONC does not have a member directory, so those features are not available.
If you are a CONC admin or trip leader, you'll also find the "Wild Apricot for admins" app to be useful.
If you belong to more than one club that uses Wild Apricot, you can still use the app. If you have different passwords for each club, you'll have to log out of one club then log in to the next. However, if you use the same password for your different clubs, you can switch between them in the app without logging out. It's a bit lower security but much easier.
