Sign up group to an event

Sounds related to #45248: Ability to signup for a friend. It's not *exactly* duplicate, but close.

However, I don't know that I like the approach of signing up as a group of users all at once. What if someone in the group can't make it? Shouldn't they have to signup themselves to confirm they can make it or not? I don't think it makes sense to commit code to the "core" signup module to handle this (apparently, rare) use-case.

Perhaps you should write this as a separate module that you contribute and maintain, which provides whatever group-specific UI you want, and just invokes the appropriate signup API calls to actually signup each user to the given node...

@Susurrus: Check out the list of modules I maintain at http://drupal.org/project/user/dww (which doesn't even include many of the ones I co-maintain). ;) You're not going to convince me to add more code to signup.module for myself to support and maintain going forward on the basis of your 2 modules and not wanting to maintain a 3rd. ;)

I guess we'll see if anyone else cares about this functionality and is willing to make it happen.

Seems no one else cares about this. Feel free to post a link in here to the project page for your new module, should you choose to go that route. ;) Thanks.

This is a pretty old issue but we needed to provide the Signup OG feature for a site.

We're also working on #45248: Ability to signup for a friend to signup multiple seats. But I see the current issue as a separate feature - allowing event admins (who are also OG admins) to signup all members of the OG groups to an event (only OGs which they also administer of course). This is a very specific case as dww points out, and wouldn't be a good idea for most groups - but like Susurrus mentions above there are some cases where this makes a lot of sense for certain types of groups/sites.

Also working on an automated option for this - so members of selected OGs will be automatically signed up for Signup-able events that are posted to specified contexts (other OG groups etc). I'm not sure if this belongs in the same module or not...

Anyway -- based on dww's suggestion above, I'm working on a submodule for this (signup_og sound ok?). I'll be cleaning out the site-specific stuff this week & will post here for advice/review :)

Probably should disambiguate the issue title...

I've done this in a custom module if you're interested.

I had to make two small changes to psynaptic's module to get it to work

function og_members_signup_form($form_state, $node) {

to

function og_members_signup_form($form_state, $node=null) {

and

    $node = node_load($nid);

to

    $node = node_load(array(nid=>$nid));

But, I am also looking for a possible solution for a group sign up to an event (as opposed to signing everyone in the group up, it would treat the group as a user who is signing up for an event). The group has a set of technical information (such as the manager of the group), and allows users to sign up to the group. Any user in the group can then sign up the group for the event, instead of just themselves (but not necessarily signing up the other members of the group).

I dont know if this goes away from the original idea with the post, but I believe Susurrus was hinting at the same functionality.

I had to make the following changes to the module to get it working on my site...

1) the same change @m_roosa reported above setting the default value of node to null on line 28:

function og_members_signup_form($form_state, $node=NULL) {

2) On line 46 I also removed the line:

'#disabled' => $default,

I think line 46 was in there because there was no code which removed signups if you un-check a the box for a group. I fixed this by adding the following code at line 75.

  if ($value === 0) { 
      if (og_members_signup_get($gnid, $nid)) { 
        // Remove the group.
        og_members_signup_remove($gnid); 
        // Get all the users in this group who were signed up.
        $query = db_query("SELECT DISTINCT s.sid FROM {signup_log} s 
          INNER JOIN {og_uid} u ON s.uid = u.uid WHERE u.nid = %d", $gnid);
        while ($row = db_fetch_object($query)){
          // Remove each user in the group.
          signup_cancel_signup($row->sid);
        }
      }
    } 
  }

re-rolled tar of module attached.

Wondering if anyone has had any luck registering a group to an event--not the individual users but the actual group node. Thanks!

I am closing this issue, as it has been created for a release that is now not supported.
