The Rules!

Trial Entering Setup

Started By

The current way the trials are set up is listing all the dogs in the kennel and reasons they can't enter/giving the option to enter them. This was okay at first, but now.... I have a huge number of dogs and if I want to enter more than one dog, I have to continuiously scroll back down benieth all the dogs who CAN'T enter and get to the few who can.
My suggestion is:
A) Only list vaccinated dogs, then only ones able to trial can be seen
B) Only list dogs who match the breed specs, so instead of rummaging through a list of Pembrokes and JRTs, I can see which Border Collie can't enter a show and the reason why
C) Only list dogs old enough to enter; I have a ton of >8 month puppies from breeding and buying so they kinda clutter the list
D) All of the above; Only listing vaccinated dogs over 8 months who match the breed specs. This is the idea I'm more interested in because it completely clears the trial page of all the unnessicary clutter of incompatible dogs.

I'm open to additional suggestions ^-^ (Please ignore any typos; I'm not on my usual computer ;-; )

Maybe if it just grouped the dogs together. Like "Bob, Joe, Fluffy, and Helga are not vaccinated" or "Teddy and Mogi are already entered in this trial!".

I actually like seeing un-vaccinated dogs and dogs not permitted in that trial level - it helps me keep track of my dogs and who I need to vaccinate to trial, as well as what trial level searches I need to perform in order to trial them. <br /><br />However, I would support removing the line items that say "(Breed) are not permitted in this trial" - it seems superfluous, especially since it doesn't link a specific dog to that line item.
