The BIG Registration Screen
This screen is meant to be a one-stop-shop for all common data collected for a student when they register. The screen has evolved over time to suit the needs of my district. This will be the fourth major revision posted to NickTech.
UPDATED FOR POWERSCHOOL 7.
Features:
- Two versions of the page for download. One with Illinois State specific fields (including ethnicity calculation). The other is not state specific. All the Illinois fields and IL specific scripts have been stripped out.
- Hovering your mouse over a fields name will show the internal field name (search term) in a tool-tip.
- Links at the top will "jump to" specific sections to save on scrolling. In addition each section header has up/down arrows which will jump to the top/bottom of the page.
- The Enrollment Notes link, also at the top, will open a dialog window containing guidance on filling out the registration screen. Alter for your district as needed.
- "Copy to mailing" button copies all the home address fields to the mailing address fields. "Copy to Mom/Dad" button copies the home_phone to mother_home_phone and father_home_phone. "Map" links next to each address field opens the address on Google maps.
- Javascript will validate the following before submitting the page:
- home phone is not blank and format XXX-XXX-XXXX
- date of birth is not blank and format mm/dd/yyyy
- First, last, middle names only contain letters, dashes, spaces, and apostrophes
- Guardian email address/es does not contain spaces (something our calling system hated)
PLEASE NOTE:
- I've included an updated more2.html page that will add the Registration link to the left-hand student links. If you have other customizations that update the more2.html page you will have to merge these together.
- This page does not incorporate PowerSchool's address validation.
- You will have to use "page permissions" to specify which users can view and/or edit the page. Article 55267 on PowerSource explains page permissions.
- To setup this page with the new language translation feature in PowerSchool 7 you will have to go through the process of extracting it's text as keys. See both the Localization Administration User Guide and Custom Web Page Management User Guide on PowerSource.
Installation:
- Download and unzip the file Registration_v4.zip or Registration_v4_Illinois if you want some IL state fields included.
- Copy all the pages and images to powerschool folder/data/custom/web_root/admin/students/ on your server. Or upload the zip file with Custom Page Management if your using it (download Pearson's guide to CPM). I highly suggest loading the pages to a test server first.
