Event Feature - Ongoing and Custom Question Field(s)

Hello Galaxy Digital Team,

I know that the majority of your product enhancements are focused on volunteer needs/opportunities (yay, by the way!). But if you ever consider updating the events feature, I would like to suggest the following:


1) Being able to post an "ongoing" event would be great! For example - we used a language override and call our events "Learning Opportunities" and we only offer/share these with our nonprofit partners. I have a custom form created for these partners to register for site training, but I can't share it under our events because it doesn't have a specific date (we switched to letting our nonprofits request a date/time - rather than scheduled trainings). 


2) I like the RSVP function for events, but it would be nice to be able to add a custom question sometimes.  This could also address another product suggestion to enable a group to RSVPs.  I think that could be harder to program on the backend, but adding the ability for site manages to add a custom questions to an event would help with that request and we could add other questions particular to an event. 


Thank you for considering!!

Hi Gina,


Good morning and thank you for reaching out! I will be happy to record these suggestions for our development and operations team to consider. I will add the following for them: 


  • Allow an ongoing duration option for the Events feature
  • Allow specific custom questions to be applied to Events for volunteers to answer when they RSVP


Thank you and I hope you have a great Friday!
