We have been hard at work making some exciting changes to eTrailToEagle.com. Please take a minute to read about some of the changes and how they will affect you.
Join Multiple Troops
Our first change allows you to belong to more than one troop at a time. We have made it easy to switch between the different troops that you work with. All you need is an invite from another Troop and then you will be able to easily switch between the two Troops. LDS Troops can also use this feature to view more than one Ward at a time. See below for more details.
If you currently have more than one eTrailToEagle.com account, please contact us at support@etrailtoeagle.com and we will help you merge the accounts to allow you easy access to each account.
E-mail address must be unique
All new accounts created on eTrailToEagle.com will use an e-mail address as the username when logging in to our site. In the past, we had an option to create a username. We are now going to standardize on using your e-mail address as your username. You will not be allowed to register an account with an e-mail address that has already been used. This was common when creating accounts for parents. Many users would use the same e-mail address for both parent accounts.
If you don’t use your e-mail address as your username, don’t worry, we will be asking you to update that very soon.
If you currently have more than one eTrailToEagle.com account with the same e-mail address, please contact us at support@etrailtoeagle.com and we will help you merge the accounts.
E-mail Verification
We have made it easier to invite leaders and parents to join you on eTrailToEagle.com. When you create an account for a new leader or parent, they will receive an invite asking them to verify their e-mail address and then help them create their password. Prior to this update, passwords were assigned to new users and their e-mail address wasn’t’ verified.
LDS Wards
LDS users will have the option to belong to more than one Ward at a time. This is useful for those in stake callings. You can easily follow the progress of each Ward using just one account. You will not have to have a separate login for each of the Wards you want to follow.
If you currently have more than one eTrailToEagle.com account, please contact us at support@etrailtoeagle.com and we will help you merge the accounts.
Summary
These are just a few of the new changes that we have been working on. Please follow our blog or Facebook page to stay up to date on all of the changes we are making.
We have a combined 11 year old patrol, between two wards. Our Asst SM wants to put the boys from the other ward onto our account, in order to keep better track of their advancements. The one hesitancy I have is the ability to delete them completly from out account when they move up to their wards Deacons Quorum. In the past a name was still listed when it was inactive- with the changes now, will a deleted name be totally gone? It so , is adding another wards names to our account the best method? By the way I think I convinced 2 other wards to look at your site at our rechartering meeting—thanks
