Here is a custom flag from the custom flags page.

I created a custom flag in the custom flags section, but when I add it to my waiver, it doesn’t show up where I expect it to be. What’s going on?

Custom Flags are located within the “Miscellaneous” tab in your product settings. Be sure that you’ve clicked into the custom fields themselves and not just into any of their sub-options (i.e., custom images). It should look like this:

Note how there is no checkbox for custom flags at all–if you click into this area, you’ll see exactly what your players will see once they have signed your waiver: a dropdown menu with all of your custom flags listed.

Custom flags are custom fields that you can add to your waivers. They will appear in a dropdown menu when a player signs the waiver, allowing them to choose from a set number of options that best suit their preferences. Custom flags have been designed for use with our custom images , but since custom flag names must be unique across all three products (Waivers, Roster Builder and Team Snap), it’s advisable to be creative when naming your custom flag so as not to confuse them with custom images.

Custom image

If you have created custom images called “Awaiting Approval,” “Approved,” and “Disapproved,” then your custom flag should read: “Flag Type (dropdown) [A, R, D].”

Once custom flags have been created in the custom field’s area, they will appear on your product’s custom tab:

To add custom flag text to your waiver, simply type “[flag]” wherever you would like it to appear and then input the custom flag name (including all brackets):

I want players to check a custom flag called “Flag Type (dropdown) [A, R, D]” when they sign my waiver. My custom image is also called “Awaiting Approval,” “Approved,” and “Disapproved.” So I would place the following in my waiver:

“By signing this form, I understand that I may be disqualified from participating in any USQ event for which I am not qualified, if I fail to abide by the event rules and procedures. Further, I acknowledge that as a member of US Quid ditch, my name and/or picture may be used for promotional purposes without compensation. As a member of USQ’s online waiver system, I agree to electronically sign this waiver form.”

“I have read and understand the above statement. By checking the box below, I electronically sign this waiver form.”

Custom images

Please note that custom flag names must be unique across all three products (Waivers, Roster Builder and Team Snap); it is advisable to use custom image names that are related but not identical to custom so as not to confuse them.
