Description

Currently, all ad-hocs have their attendance listed under the general "Ad-Hoc" category. This makes sense as is, because we dont want to have to update the database every time there is a new adhoc or if an adhoc is not recreated.

However, it would be cool if, when a user selects the "ad-hoc" option in the attendance dropdown, a textbox appears that lets them type in a label for their attendance.

This would also make it easier for eboard members to figure out what an attendance is on the attendance history page when they are trying to approve it.

Research direction

Start by locating the attendance dropdown and the code that handles ad-hoc submissions, then trace how attendance records are shown on the history page. Confirm how existing ad-hoc records are stored before determining where the user-provided label belongs. Done means an ad-hoc submission can include a label and that label is visible to eboard members in attendance history.
