A solid plugin for organizing volunteer time slots. Lots of configurable features accomodate different scenarios: multi-day events, recurring events, etc. The add-ons for calendar display and automated emails are helpful and minimal cost. I especially appreciate the attention to detail in adding back-end testing from the admin screens. I had a question about an add-on and the developer was incredibly responsive.

I have been using this plugin for over 10 years for a several of our church events and it is the best one I have found. I have looked for other programs, even the paid ones, and they don’t do what this program does. I was scared after not seeing an update for such a long time that I was going to have to settle for something else that is not as powerful as this one. This one meets all of our needs. I would give it 10 stars but only 5 are available. Easy to install and very flexible. I like how you can set up managers to just update the sign ups back end, very easy for them to use.

Great for helping us manage sign-ups for volunteer events. Would be even more amazing if you could export/track volunteer hours by WP user!

I have been using this for lunch sign-ups for our Rotary Club for over a year. After trying out various other sign-up plug-ins, this is the one that did what we wanted, wasn’t overly complex and didn’t require moving up to the “premiere” edition to get the best features. Good documentation also.

I’m using this plugin to manage swim lanes for a Masters Swim Team. Due to Covid, we had to find a way to figure out our lane assignments.
I tried many other ways of doing this (other sign up plug ins, hotel booking plugins, calendars, etc.). I was pulling my hair out until I came across Volunteer Sign up sheets.
I was pretty quickly able to setup a system that allowed swimmers to reserve lanes. This has saved our swim coach hours of organizing and communications back and forth with members.
It’s not “absolutely perfect” because Stephen built it from another existing plugin, and also for his purposes for a PTA sign up sheet. But, it has many cool features and extras which are super useful. We use the reminders and the self-service aspect of being able to clear yourself from an assignment.
This awesome plugin was easy to configure and intuitive to use. I’ll be supporting Stephen’s development efforts on this plug in other add-ons.
EDIT: Our swim team made a feature request to Stephen to allow the sheets to be copied or rescheduled. Stephen added this feature within two days!! I can’t tell you what a great time savings this has been, since now we don’t have to clear and re-add everyone.
Our volunteer coach is eternally grateful, as am I.
Stephen, we really cannot express our gratitude for this plugin. The High Altitude Masters Swimmers of Santa Fe wish you the greatest success in all that you do!!

I did a ton of research before deciding on this plugin to manage a system of signups on my website. This plugin did every single thing it was supposed to do with not one glitch. The free plugin works great, but the features offered with the paid version are well worth the investment.

This plugin is packed with useful features, making it incredibly versatile and customizable. As many other reviewers have noted, the developer is a great guy who is happy to assist as soon as he is able. In fact, a support request quickly led to him releasing a new version of the plugin to accommodate my quirky use case. The paid add-on plugins that augment the functionality are also terrific and a great value.

Stephen replied to my question within minutes and provided support above and beyond my expectations.
Oh, AND I love the plugin!

I build and maintain websites for school organizations, parent-teacher associations, and nonprofits. Nearly all of my clients need “Sign Up Sheet” capability and most come from the world of Sign Up Genius or similar 3rd party services that make me CRINGE. This plugin pulls all of that right into the organization’s website in a single, easy to use place. It just does what it is supposed to and does it well.
Then put on top of that that the developer is just a guy who built this for his own kid’s school and offered it up to others… AND STILL CONTINUES TO MAINTAIN AND IMPROVE IT, and actually responds to inquiries… like FAST, like really FAST. Moreso, I have had a recurring issue where there’s a problem with the plugin that is due to a conflict NOT of THIS plugin but another on the website — instead of telling me “This is not my problem” he actually implemented a fix because I haven’t gotten a response from the errant plugin developer.
Volunteer Sign Up Sheets is a must-use plugin on nearly every one of my client websites – and if your organization needs sign up capability, this is the plugin to use.

Wow.. this is just a fantastic plugin that can COMPLETELY replace your need for SignUp-Genius. It fully integrates with your website and works amazing with no slow down of your site at all. Support is crazy fast and helpful as well. I wish I had some funds to throw at this developer..but if anyone out there DOES feel like donating to a dev… this is the one for sure. His plugins are just phenomial!

Developer was able to react fast and give information why the plugin was not working correctly (not his fault, another plugin was bad). And even after that he tried to help and explain other possible solutions and possible problems.

Someone recommended that I use SignUpGenius; however, it isn’t embeddable or truly customizable. I was thrilled to find PTA Volunteer Sign Up Sheets. It provides all the options that I need for volunteer sign up at our parish. I am so thankful that it includes short codes for seamless integration.

We switched from a separate volunteer sign-up website to this plug-in earlier in the year to have more control over the sign-up process and user experience.
This plug-in simply rocks. From ease-of-use over flexibility to customer support, we love it. With the <div> table rendering option and the built-in ability to override css, we were able to quickly adapt look & feel to our needs (both in regular browsers and mobile access). The “icing on the cake” was a minor issue, which I reported literally yesterday evening only to wake up this morning to an update with a fix. I strongly recommend this to anybody looking for a volunteer sign-up solution.

Works for church events as well as volunteer sign-ups. we also use the PTA member directory and the sign-up sheet customizer.

We use the Sign-up Sheets plugin for various functions in our club. I even purchased the Customizer Extension to tweak the sheets for our use. When I ran into some issues, Stephen was prompt to respond and would not stop till I had my issues fully resolved to my satisfaction.
Best support ever!!!

PTA sign up sheets has been invaluable in my volunteer events for the past 3 years now. It works with WordPress’s own login / registration system so that you can restrict access to certain people without any extra plugins, as well as making it open to the public.
It’s easy to use, straightforward and works well.
The support is also fantastic. When I installed a new theme over the top of my wordpress site, it caused mischief with the code functionality of the PTA sign up sheets plugin. Once I identified this issue, I emailed Stephen Sherrard and he helped me so quickly – it was amazing. So thanks very much to Stephen and this plugin! so glad I got it!

If you are looking for a light-weight system for organizing your volunteer work then look no further. This plug-in has a lot of features and the support is fantastic! Together with the Groups extention https://stephensherrardplugins.com/plugins/pta-volunteer-sign-up-sheet-groups/group our football club can now assign volunteer work for our different teams and display it directly on their own team page! This is a real live example of how this plugin is used: https://storhamarfotball.no/laget-mitt/lagssider/g2002/ How cool is that…. 10 stars hands down!

We are super pleased with the PTA Volunteer Sign Up Sheets for managing our volunteer activities. We’ve had trouble in the past both being able to easily gather volunteer information, make the open spots visible, still allow for us to do paper signups at meetings (and enter the info later), and have a way to contact all volunteers and send reminders. Some events have as many as 50-60 spots. This is solving a big problem for us.
The author has also been very responsive to our questions, so that’s appreciated as well.

Really intuitive features and functionality. So easy to set up a big volunteer sign up system for our events. I needed custom user fields so I’m using it along with WP-Members and it’s a great combination. I was tired of using 3rd party sign up systems that never quite did what I wanted without paying big $$ for pro versions. This is the perfect solution. Great support too. Thanks Stephen!

This is almost exactly what I need. I love how the user can sign up for the volunteer position and receive customizable email notifications (bravo for that, btw) but the plug in offers no way to set up volunteers on the back end. We have three people handle each volunteer area on Sunday mornings for our church services and they need to input the names on the back end for those who have already been asked and agreed to work a shift. By making the signup process only on the front end, you run the risk of someone else signing up for that position that is already filled in person instead of through the website.
If you add the ability to input names in to the positions before the listing goes public, this plug-in would be absolutely PERFECT! Every other aspect of this plug in I absolutely adore, and thank you for.

We have been using this for volunteer signups for about a month. It does exactly what it says in the description. A lot of websites are providing services for volunteer signups with monthly fees, and it’s amazing we can use this plugin free. It’s actually better than the paid services, because all the web pages are right on our own website. This is a stellar example of what makes the wordpress community so great!

This plugin works great for our activity sign ups. There are so many filters used all through the code that pretty much lets you hook in anywhere to customize.

Great resource. Plan on using it for numerous applications, but immediately upon installing, was able to set up a signup for a big toy drive, where we are looking for 180 toys for kids of different ages. Very smooth process. Glad I followed my gut in doing this rather than just setting up a signup genius. Works and looks far better.
