== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= How do I create a Sign-up Sheet page on my site? =
You can do this by creating any page or post and adding the shortcode `[sign_up_sheet]` to the content.  Then, go to the "Sign-up Sheets" section of your WP admin and create a new sheet.

= If i update to the Pro version, will i lose my information from the free version? =
No, you will not lose any information and will retain all of your current sign-up sheets and sign-ups.

= Can I change the "from" address on the confirmation email? =
Yes, in `Settings > Sign-up Sheets` you can specify any email you want.  It defaults to the email address set in `Settings > General`.

= How can I suggest an idea for the plugin? =
Send us an email through our website at https://www.fetchdesigns.com/contact/  We appreciate any and all feedback, but can't guarantee it will make it into the next version.  If you are in need a modification immediately, we are available for hire.  Please contact us at the link above and we can provide a quote.

= What is the difference between "Custom Task Fields" and "Custom Sign-up Fields (pro version only) =
**Custom Task Fields:** (on the Sign-up Sheet) are fields that appear when you create or edit a sheet in the admin on each task that you create. They are for display purposes only on the front-end of the Sign-up Sheet.
**Custom Sign-up Fields:** (on the Sign-up Form) are fields that users fill out on the front-end on the form they use to sign-up for an open spot

= How do I display sheets from only 1 specific category (Pro version only) =
To filter by category, you can include the category id # in the shortcode to determine which category will display on that page.   As an example, the following shortcode would show all sheets associated with category #5... `[sign_up_sheet category_id="5"]`

= When are email reminders sent? (Pro version only) =
When you have the "reminder" setting turned on in `Settings > Sign-up Sheets`, a WordPress event will be triggered to check for reminders needing to be sent out.  This happens when someone visits your site, but no more than once per hour.  You can set how many days prior to the event you would like reminders to go out.

= How do I change the sheet list heading? =
The list title defaults to 'Current Sign-up Sheets'.  To customize this, you can add the option `list_title` to your shortcode (example: `[sign_up_sheet list_title=""]`).  If you are using the Pro version and filtering by a specific category, you can also have this default to the name of the category by adding the option `list_title_is_category` (example: `[sign_up_sheet category_id=4 list_title_is_category=true]`).

= What dynamic variables can I use in my confirmation email? (Pro version only) =
{site_name}
{site_url}
{from_email}
{removal_link}
{signup_details}
{signup_firstname}
{signup_lastname}
{signup_email}
