Hi,

I have a Spa client that's interested in an online appointment system. I know I could use CCK to make an appointment request form but what about a full-on live appointment calendar? I can't seem to get my head around how this would actually work. I don't see an appointment module so I'm guessing that some combination of signup, events & workflow might be the trick? Has anyone else already done this? Maybe point me in the right direction?

Thanks

I like this idea, and am interested in something similar except for being a door to door disabled transportation service. I am going to attempt to make something custom but it will be my first drupal module so it might take some time.

I like this idea as well. I think there could be a lot of use here. Anyone know of a current module that'd work?

I'm looking for similar functionality for a veterinarian and a dentist (not the same person :)) A module would be great as I can't figure out how to organize the code for this.

Yeah...I need this for teaching guitar lessons.

It would be cool if people could also pay using PayPal when they schedule. Any modules for this?

Watch the Booking API. It's in GSOC '08 and I'm keen on something like this too. In the meantime, we've tweaked PHPScheduleIt to recognize drupal credentials by adding the line:
ini_set('session.cookie_domain', 'example.com');
to our default settings.php file.

Can you go into details as to how you got PHPScheduleIt to recognize drupal credentials?

We're using an old version of PHPScheduleIt (version 0.9.9). Looking through the code, I can tell that the original implementors had to do a little bit of tweaking on PHPScheduleIt to get it to work.

I will try to replicate the process using the latest version and then report back. In fact, I'll probably just start a new thread documenting the process and include the link here.
