I think we need to send this to FRC - they need to fix this -FAST!

You do not need to have been accepted to the team to complete the consent form. You just need to have applied to the team.

When I log in as mentor, there is no option on the dashboard to add a member.

The only way, is if i create another email account just to register my own son.

You can register a youth member under your primary account as well. On your dashboard, click "I want to... +" to expand the same set of buttons "regular" users see, including "Complete Youth Member Registration."

I just typed in a bunch of FLL parent's emails to invite them to the team. After digging them all out of my email and pasting them into the invitation list on the team management page, I hit "enter" on the last one instead of clicking the button at the bottom that says something like "send invitation".

Basically, it refreshed the page, lost all of the emails, and didn't send out the invitations.

This "improved" web site is very very frustrating.

DOH! Thx!

The new FIRSTInspires website is the reason FIRST should have kept the website award around . Perhaps it needs competition.
