Just to update this thread… this issue ended up getting resolved likely after some recent updates to Elementor and/or WordPress.
Are you able to provide a link to your site where this is happening? Feel free to mark it as a “private reply” if you prefer it to not be made public.
Hi Thomas, at the moment the “Status Email” only outputs the name and email for each sign-up. Other emails like the confirmation email can include additional custom fields and does include phone number if included which you can add additional emails as a BCC (blind carbon copy) on. However, I do have a feature on the wishlist to expand the Status Email to include additional fields. I’d be happy to update this thread if that feature ends up being added to the plugin.
If you can also give me an example or two of how you’d like to use it, please let me know so it can be considered when looking at incorporating the feature. I can’t guarantee when or if it will be added to the plugin, though, so if you are in need of this feature ASAP, just message me through the Contact Form and I can provide a quote for adding the feature right away.
I’m happy to report that this feature has just been released with the 2.2.11 version of the Sign-up Sheets plugin by using the shortcode
[user_sign_ups]. If you run into any questions or issues with the feature, please don’t hesitate to reach out.I’m happy to report that the ability for users to edit their own sign-ups has now been added as part of version 2.2.11 (Pro) along with a new shortcode
[user_sign_ups]for both the Free and Pro plugins that allows you to output a list of all the tasks a user has signed up for all on one page… in addition to a number of other updates.Hi Tracy! Yes, this is a known issue with the 2.2.10 version of the plugin which will be fixed with the next release. The current workaround is to use the export link on the Manage Sign-ups page.
I reviewed the sorting logic more closely and I believe it should function the way you describe. If you have your sorting set by “Date” it should use the end date of the sheet/task range and if the end dates are the same for more than one sheet it will fallback to the date the sheet was published. Can you verify and let me know if you are seeing this work differently on your end?
That is a great idea! I’ve added it to the wish list for possible future improvements. If you are in need of this feature right away, though, just let me know and I can provide a quote for developing it for you.
Thanks for the suggestion! The current layout doesn’t offer the ability to output a Feature Image, but I can certainly add this to the Wish List in the event additional layouts are introduced.
Happy to help! Feel free to reach out if you run into any other questions.
Thanks,

Happy with Sign-up Sheets and the support you received? Leave a review!Hi Jim,
There is a connection between the sign-up and the WP users, but currently it’s only to link sign-ups to a user so they can later remove themselves if needed or so you can export the sign-ups and know who was logged in when the sign-up came through. There is also a feature in progress that is expected to be released with the next version of the plugin that will allow your users to see a list of all the tasks they’ve signed up for in one place.
However, I believe you can accomplish what you are looking for if you use a separate plugin in conjunction with Sign-up Sheets. If you use a plugin such as WP-Members it will allow you to restrict the sheets to only be available once the user logs in. Once installed, just make sure to go to Settings > WP-Members and under the “Custom Post Types” section, check the box next to “Sign-up Sheets” which allows you to secure individual Sign-up Sheets to require you user to log in before accessing them.
Let me know if that works for your needs or if not, what changes you would like to see instead.
Thanks!
Hi Anthony, so sorry to hear you are having trouble. The sorting by date uses the sheet date field (or task dates if using the Pro version and they are configured for that sheet). Can you verify if these are the dates you are referring to? You can find a screenshot and more details about the sorting feature at the Sign-up Sheets Settings Documentation (Sheet Order on Front-end.
If you are still seeing an issue, can you provide a link to the listing you are referring to? If you prefer not to share it publicly, you can just check the box “Set as private reply” prior to submitting your reply.
While the Sign-up Sheets plugin doesn’t have this specific features, you can still accomplish this by installing a plugin such as WP-Members which allows you to do just that. Once installed, just make sure to go to Settings > WP-Members and under the “Custom Post Types” section, check the box next to “Sign-up Sheets” which allows you to secure individual Sign-up Sheets to require you user to log in before accessing them.
Additionally, depending on how you wanted to list your sheets, you may also be able to leverage the “Category” feature of Sign-up Sheets Pro to have separate “Current Sheets” listings for both public and private events. You can create different categories for each and use the
[sign_up_sheet]shortcode or similar Gutenberg block to display just upcoming sheets in a specific category.The closest functionality would be to use the “Sign-up Sheet Manager” role. You can create WordPress users with a role of “Sign-up Sheet Manager” which will give them very limited access to just Sign-up Sheet functionality. This leverages the native WordPress user functionality and while they will have some admin access it will restrict what they can do to prevent them from accessing other areas that aren’t relevant to them.
