Click on the "New Volunteer Opportunity Question" button to open up the Question edit screen.

Some pages may also have an "Add Question" button at the top of the page which may also be used to open the Question edit screen.

By default, the Volunteer Opportunity you were viewing will be auto-populated.  This is the opportunity the question will be associated with.

You can then select an existing question that you have previously created using the "Select Question" lookup or you can click on the "Create" button to create a new question.   NOTE: The "Create" button will be found on the far right side of the page.

If you are creating a new question, you need to first select the TYPE you want to use:

Order:  Place a number here.  Multiple questions with the same opportunity will be placed in the order based on the contents of this field.  (We recommend making the first question 10, second 20 etc... so that if you decide to add a question later that falls between them you can make its order "15".

Required: if checked, the question is not optional, and signup can not be completed until the questions has a response to it.  It will appears with an asterick (*) next to the question number.

Active: Check this box to make the question active with the opportunity.  If unchecked, the question will no longer appear.  (This is used instead of deleted questions, because you may have answers associated with this question from earlier occurrences).

Click SAVE to save your custom question.

NOTES:

• Once you select a question type it cannot be changed. If you need to select a different type, then make the current question inactive and create a new question with the desired type.  
• The answers in the text field are limited to 255 characters (including spaces). If using a multi-select option such as checkboxes the response selected will truncate at 255 characters.

If you opt to create a new Question, once you have saved it the Question ID (QU-######) will be populated in the "Select Question" field.

Once both the Select Question and Volunteer Opportunity fields are populated, you can then click Save to add the custom Question to the Volunteer Opportunity.

If you need to edit an existing Question, you can go to the Volunteer Opportunity Questions list and click on the "QU-######" link.

From the Question detail page, you can see the Volunteer Opportunities that are currently using the Question.
