Hi there,
We're considering the implementation of your request. Manual entry of email addresses, phone numbers and Telegram chat IDs can be rather cumbersome and is prone to typos. So we are looking into a possibility to pick recipients from a list.

I am aware of how it works and for me personally, it is clear and simple smile
Although these lists could also be displayed from a drop-down checklist.
However, my colleagues, managers, directors, often people over 50, don't get that they have to enter team names followed by a semicolon... They prefer to select each person individually, and if it doesn't suggest these people to them, they enter them manually. In TeamUp, they select people from the list who are relevant to the event, and those people receive notifications. It's hard for them to switch... not to mention that one of them has to have a list of all emails written on a piece of paper and copies it when creating an event, because, for example, Outlook suggests these people to him, but unfortunately not here.

Good idea - but:
Are you aware that you can specify a recipients-list?

You can have different pre-made lists.
You can have a list  named TeamA. In this list is the names of teammembers on teamA.
When you on an event specifies TeamA in the reciipients field, then messages is sent to all in the list.

You can even have recipients that is not a member of the calendar.
Example:
The calendar is for an art-gallery. There is a vernissage on xx.xx.xx.
You want to send notifications to relevant people. You have a list where you specify the recipients by their mobile number (in case of SMS) mailaddress or Telegram (in case of a Telegram message)
You have a list with a mix of calendar-users and non-calendar-users.
The list is named: galleryfriends
You specify "galleryfriends" in the recipient field and you check "send now". Messages is sent to all on the list.
If you specify a number of days (and have cronjob activated) then a notification is sent the specified number of days before the vernissage takes place. All is automatic.

Is this kind of what you ask for?

Hello,
We are planning to switch from TeamUP to luxCal. Everything looks great, but we really miss the ability to select event participants (who will receive an email notification) from a checklist. Such a list could display, for example, a list of registered users shown by name, which could be checked off with a checkbox.
Manual entry is okay, but there are people for whom such a feature is crucial... Could you possibly add something like that?
