Hidden Gender importing as Male

[Rod Simpson]

I am importing participants using an Excel file.

The Gender field is defaulting to Male even if the value is 'Hidden"

[Brian Agee]

Currently the software looking for any of these values to assign genders:

• Female = "F", "FEMALE", "W", "WOMEN", "G", "GIRL", "GIRLS", "WOMENS", "FEMALES"
• Hidden = "", "NON BINARY", "NONBINARY", "NB"
• Male = Anything else not listed above

So if you have "Hidden", change it to a blank string and that should do the trick. I can add "Hidden" as an option with the next update.

Thanks for the easy solution.  Replaced all the Hiddens with a blank and all is well.

Thanks again.

Can X as be added to be "Hidden" please

I thought it did but you didn't list it Brian so I figured i'd ask

[Brian Agee]

Sure thing, just added it. I'll release the next update as soon as I wrap up some work on the RunSignUp integration improvements.

I've also started working on organizing 'group buys' discounts again. I'll announce those products and the discounts available soon. For example foldable mat antennas, double sided race clocks, HuTags, generators, LED display boards, and other products that timers using just about any system can take advantage of. Let me know if there is a product that you'd like to offered with a group buy discount. Another main focus I have over the next week or two is updating the Twilio setup guide so that it's easier for people to get approved and use it for instant SMS results. I believe I found a way that should be pretty easy for everyone. So expect some good announcements over the next few weeks. :)
