Turning Off Bulk Sign-up

We'd like the ability to turn off allowing event creators from adding other employees to their event. In the current setup, an event creator can bulk add volunteers to their event, and that allows the volunteers to bypass our mandatory legal, photo and safety waivers in the disclaimer section. This also can confuse employees who might not realize they were added by another employee and we are concerned there will be a drop in participation.

    Last week's 24.1.0 release included a new Allow users to add participants setting. It's default value is set to enabled.

    To prevent users, including event creators, organizers, and volunteer admins, from manually adding participants, clients can ask their Customer Success Managers (CSMs) to disable the Allow users to add participants setting.

    Today, an employee loaded all 40 employees onto a volunteer event, then called me about getting t-shirts. Which is backwards then our entire system. If this idea was followed up on, we would've avoided this incident.

    Hey Sean, thank you for your submission. The product team did review this idea and moved it to 'Reviewed: Voting Open'. Any additional updates will be reflected in this idea as we move forward. Meanwhile, it is open for other users to vote and comment on.

    Is there a follow-up on this? This idea was submitted 6 months ago with no response. We are currently in our biggest month of volunteerism and the communication tools on YourCause are not getting through to employees, and we are having a lot of issues with creators adding volunteers.
