Phone-Friendly COC Site - BETA

by Rhonda Scheurer

The COC is pleased to announce we're finally moving forward with a device/phone-friendly version of our site.  

The BETA version of the site is now available.  When you access our web address from your phone, you should be automatically directed to our "friendly" site.  

On the BETA site, you can:

  1. Use the menu to access your available options
  2. View a list of upcoming events;
  3. View the details of an upcoming   event;
  4. Log in;
  5. When you're logged in, you can:
    1. View your list of upcoming     events;
    2. Cancel your registration for an upcoming event;
    3. View your list of waiting list   spots;
    4. Remove yourself from a        waiting list.


Using the Full Site on your Mobile

What if you don't want to use this "friendly" version, or need to access something that is only available on the full version of our web site?  You can, at any time, switch back to the full site by going to the bottom of any page on the "friendly" site and clicking the "Click here for the Full Site" link.

Going Back to Mobile

What if you go to the full version of the web site, but then you want to go back to the mobile version?  You can switch back to the mobile version by going to the "Events" menu (find "Device-Friendly" at the bottom of the menu).

Additional Features for Development

We would like your input into what other features we should focus on adding to the device/phone-friendly version.  We can't add every single thing that is found on our main web site, so we need to cherry-pick the most important items.  

Please rank our "To Do List" here: [Ranking Poll].  

Report an Issue

We are doing our best to test everything thoroughly, but different devices may produce different results, and we don't own every single device that could be used to access our site, so we'll be relying on you to let us know if there are problems.

If you encounter problems using the device/phone-friendly version, please report them thusly:
  1. Send an e-mail to webmaster@calgaryoutdoorclub.com
  2. In the e-mail, include:
    1. What you were doing when you encountered the problem;
    2. What kind of a device/phone you're using;
    3. A screen-shot of the error/problem.
