Organizers should pick the end date, not you. Two weeks is NOT enough!
I lead backpacking trips that last longer than two weeks, yet you force me to post a FALSE end date. Not nice.

Create MEETUP Event Organizer Business Cards
Work with a business card company to create a MEETUP event organizer business card that we can customize. I like giving a business a business card when I am setting up an event.

It would be great if organizers could disable the If your host made it clear that sending a different amount is okay, change this amount"
It wold be great to disable a feature when members go to pay that states "If your host made it clear that sending a different amount is okay, change this amount.
I would like to be able to turn it on and at my discretion as I had a member change the amount to a lower one without my knowledge and permission.

Allow Organizers to set "RSVP priority" list of people per event/reoccuring event
In my group we play role playing games. These game sessions occur frequently and are part of on-going campaigns (one of which has lasted more than six years). We like using meetup to find new players and facilitate a multitude of game events but each reoccuring game event typically has the same core players for an extended period of time. It would be great to be able to set a list of specific people who would take RSVP priority over others who have not attended this specific reocurring event. If one of the core people RSVPs late this "priority list"…

Allow people to export meetup groups
It'd be nice if when I search for a meetup group I could export the list to excel. This is great for people like me who helps professionals find networking opps. :)

allow the customization of the home page event list
Allow the events list that shows on a group's home page to be customized:
1. Allow the pointless attendee minipics to be shown or hidden.
2. Allow event comments to be shown or hidden.. Allow the number of comments shown under the event info to be set.
3 Allow the list of repeat events to be shown or hidden or replaced with a link that reads, something like "This events repeats every thursday" which takes the user to a list of repeat events if they click it (or even pops the list up).Post below if you have any other…

Search and/or sort past meetups
After 3 years and 500 members, my meetup group has done many things with a diverse number of topics and venues. Unfortunately, NEW members cannot see that easily, so they sometimes ask for things that we already do or have done in the past. Can't we ad a box to search past meetups and sort by organizer-set keywords?
I'd like members to be able to see that yes, we meet at bars, do educational lectures, and have fun family outings without having to blindly scroll back through years of the calendar one month at a time.

Create rubber wrist bands to identify members at busy venues.
I have been to a couple of meetups and could not tell by looking who is in the group. I found my self asking strangers if they were members. They looked at me like I was from mars. An identifiable wrist band would go far in the introduction process. Meet ups with many many people would also greatly benefit.
Imagine business giving discounts to people with these bands. Our groups promote and use local businesses in exchange for discounts.
Meetup should contract with a supplier of rubber wrist bands with the meetup logo. meetup groups could buy these at a…4 votes -
Fix HTML <form> elements under the General / Hometown & Location so it can show were I'm from & also where I live rather then only 1.
The General profile <form> doesn't let you have different 'Hometown' and "Location", yet there are options to fill out both.
I love MeetUp but there's no way to indicate from which state I've traveled from. It seems like a cgi programming problem.4 votes -
Add an icon for Organizers to click, so that we can see a screen shot of what Non-members would see.

YES, NO, WAITLISTED & INTERESTED event status needed.
Hi Meetup Support,
As an organizer, i am always juggling between members who are genuinely coming & only interested in a meetup. The WaitList status is also very useful...
The interested status is very important! From the group of interested members we find members who can confirm. We also find out who are the more active members too.
I have so many members who tell me they are interested but didn't rsvp since they cannot commit an event.
So let the organizer allow an event to have Interested members just like the ability to allow WaitList members in an event.

Accept new members from mobile apps
Mobile app (iOs anyway) doesn't have tool enabling you to see and accept new member inquiries. Need to be able to do this through the app and not by opening a web browser.

It would be cool to have a "Meetup Balloon" that we could get filled with helium, to make it easier to find us @ big events
At large venues, especially outdoor ones, there may be lots of people. Having a balloon with the Meetup logo could make it easier for people to find our group. Perhaps we have a white space on it as well, where we could write our names in. We could then order these from Meetup.com

We have created several pages under the "Pages" section but they are not easy to find. Would be awesome to be allowed to create navigational items under pages or have these automatically created based on the title of the additional pages that have been created. Honestly, I don't even care where the navigation is, as long as it is somewhere. Thanks!

embed Google map directions into our event descriptions
I organize dog walking events and would like to see the walking map (created on Google Maps) embedded into the event description. It gives each member of the group the ability to see the layout of the walk.

Front page of meetup site not displayed to logged in users - the most important details are there and they cannot see them.
Important details about the club and getting on events are in bold red letters on the front page but users logged into Meetup do not see it - it is replaced by the activity stream. Im sick of telling every person the same thing over and over again to 600 meetup members and increasing. The front page is there for a reason -its important - stop hiding it.

I would really like to suggest a x number dates to the members, where members can can pick the best date for a event. The date where the most members have rsvp'd to wins.
