Releases for Signup

Release notes

At long last, an official 6.x-1.0 release. ;) Huge thanks to ezra-g for stepping in as a co-maintainer and doing a flurry of activity to clean up the DRUPAL-6--1 branch in preparation for this release!

One of the biggest changes since signup 6.x-1.0-rc6 is that Views is now a required dependency. If you don't already have views enabled, you will need to install and enable views before upgrading to this release. Due to a bug in core that was never fixed for D6 you will not be able to enable views from the admin/build/modules UI once you install signup 6.x-1.0.

Bugs fixed since version 6.x-1.0-rc6

• #597808 by dww: Signup limits were ignored unless the signup_status module is enabled (broken in rc6 by #581652).
• #370397 by wesley_2mpact and ezra-g: All anonymous signups cancelled when any user is deleted
• #676276 by keystr0k and ezra-g: Signup not closed when limit reached
• #605594 by markus_petrux and ezra-g: node_load() during signup's node_save() breaks node data cached by CCK

Release notes

Once again, I've been naughty and I'm introducing API and schema changes here in a "release candidate". Sorry about that! However, ultimately, they're for the best, even if it's a slightly bumpy ride right now.

Sites using Signup status which are attempting to make use of the "Modifies signup count" setting for any status codes will be happy to know that upgrading to this release and 6.x-1.0-alpha2 of signup_status will make feature actually work. However, sites using Signup status should upgrade to signup_status 6.x-1.0-alpha2 and run update.php before upgrading to this release (although you need to upgrade to signup rc6 before signup_status alpha2 will actually work).

Bugs fixed since version 6.x-1.0-rc5

• #439294 by dww: Fixed bug where %user_signup_info was not being replaced with an empty string on sites that do not define any extra fields on the signup form.
• #539052 by dww: Fixed jQuery bug when users edited their signups that was causing most of the form elements to be enabled before pressing the 'Edit' button (all form elements should be disabled at first).

Release notes

Known bugs in this version

• #533970: Access denied to the 'signups' tab if the signup attendee list is not configured as a tab
• #534948: signup_confirm_email breaks signup_status

Bugs fixed since version 6.x-1.0-rc3

• #370397 by ezra-g: Fixed critical data-loss bug where all anonymous signups would be destroyed if any authenticated user was deleted. This bug was introduced during the port to Drupal 6 core, due to an undocumented API change between Drupal core versions 5 and 6.
• #350548 by dww: Fixed logic bug in the support for Event module which would close signups prematurely if you edited event nodes in the future.
• #354944 by stBorchert: Fixed bug where changes to signup settings were lost during node previews (in Drupal 6.x only).
• #350872 by gargoyle and dww: Fixed bug where node type names were used unquoted as table aliases in the SQL for the admin/content/signup page. If you had a node type named after an SQL reserved word (e.g. 'match'), you'd get SQL errors. Now, node type names are properly quoted.
• #181272 by dww: Fixed bug where the labels on the custom signup form fields were not properly translatable when this data was displayed in other places (when viewing your own signup info, etc).

Release notes

Bug fixes since version 5.x-2.6

• #336255 by KarenS and dww: Fixed numerous bugs in usage of DateAPI that were breaking all time-based signup functionality for datestamp fields and causing problems for certain configurations of date or datetime fields depending on the timezone handling. Using 5.x-2.4 of DateAPI and the CCK Date field, the one configuration that doesn't fully work is a datestamp field that has no timezone handling at all. With that configuration, you must use the latest Date code from the DRUPAL-5--2 branch (check the top of your copy of date/date.module and make sure the revision is at least "1.39.2.50" (2008-11-28) or newer).
• #338850 by dww: Fixed critical SQL bug ("Not unique table/alias: 'e'") on the signup administration page (admin/content/signup) for sites that have more than one event.module node type that is signup-enabled.
• #335190 by bkat and dww: Fixed bug where if you had a node enabled for signups and edited it to disable signups, the node would remain signup enabled. The bug was introduced in Signup version 5.x-2.6 by #328822.

Release notes

This is the first official release candidate of the port to the Drupal 6 API of the Signup module. It contains all of the features and bug fixes from the Drupal 5 version up to and including version 5.x-2.6. Assuming no bugs are found, this will be released as the 6.x-1.0 version in the near future.

Changes since 5.x-2.6

• #222217 by dww, deadwood.module and coder.module: Initial port to D6. Related issues: #330838, #330840, #332968, and #333264.
• #330820 by dww and duellj: Ported all views support to the views2 API. This changes how the 'View to embed for the signup user list' setting works, so any sites that are using a custom view for this will have to revisit the signup settings page and select a new value under the advanced settings fieldset. signup_update_6000() removes the deprecated variables from the database.
• #330821 by dww: Fixed problems with the D6 CCK Date field support.
• #330824 by dww: Ported the Panels integration to the D6 Panels API.

Release notes

NOTE: This will probably be the last release of the 5.x-1.* series, which will soon be deprecated. Sites should consider migrating to the 5.x-2.* series (especially once 5.x-2.6 is out).

Changes since 5.x-1.0:

• #321653 by shane_jordan: Fixed bug where if a signup administrator canceled an anonymous signup on a given node, all of that anonymous user's signups were also canceled. This bug was from the original implementation of anonymous signup support (#68497).
• #219680 by dww: Fixed bug where the email address of users who signup was being sent in the notification emails to event owners, which is an inadvertent disclosure of personal information. Now, only a link to the user's profile is included.
• #137609 by dww and stBorchert: Added a lot more themeability for how the site-specific custom signup data is displayed for the signed up user, the signup administrator, and in the email messages. This also fixes a bug (#178441) where the labels for the custom fields were not included in the email messages.

Release notes

This release is the culmination of a tremendous effort clearing out remaining issues in the Drupal 5 code base on the way to the port to Drupal 6. It includes a number of bug fixes, including some potential information disclosure bugs that should be carefully considered (listed separately).

In terms of new features, the biggest new feature is massively improved themability. There's a list of all the new theme functions added in this release to help site builders quickly see all the new opportunities for customization. Another key new feature is a default view of all the users who signed up for a given node, and various settings related to how this information is displayed. The other most noteworthy feature is optional integration with the token module. Huge thanks to Greg Mount for the generous donation to the signup fundraising effort, and everyone else who contributed. Also, special thanks go to deviantintegral and stBorchert for all their help with patches and testing.

Release notes

Bugs fixed since 5.x-2.2:

• #169372 and #171363: Fixed bugs with redeclaring functions caused by using include() instead of include_once(). NOTE: This bug mostly showed up as SQL or other errors when trying to run cron.
• #179540 by dragonwize and dww: Restored the login/register links for anonymous users when viewing a signup-enabled node.
• #181627 by stBorchert and dww: Removed an inappropriate WHERE clause in the signup UID views argument handler that restricted the query to nodes where signups where open. That should be handled via a filter.
• #183417 by dww: Switched to a better method for conditionally including views support code. This no longer uses signup_init(), which wasn't necessary and made this module listed as incompatible with aggressive caching for no good reason.

New features since 5.x-2.2:

Release notes

There are 2 major changes since 5.x-2.0: a long-awaited new feature, and a critical bug fix for anonymous users:

• #32482: Adding support for signup limits per node:
  • New field on site-wide signup defaults and per-node edit form to set or modify the signup limit.
  • Signups auto-close when the limit is reached.
  • Users can now cancel their own signup when signups are closed, and if it's not an event-enabled node, or the event hasn't started yet, signups automatically re-open.
  • Cleanup of the node/N/signups UI.
  • Even bigger cleanup of admin/content/signups UI.
  • Views support updated to view and filter by signup limit.
• #138401: Fixed a fatal PHP error on certain pages for anonymous users when caching is enabled.
