Hi all

I would like the Scheduled Actions module updated : http://drupal.org/project/sched_act

I have contacted the module maintainer but he appears too busy to deal with this currently. The changes you make should be of good enough quality and tested that the module maintainer can add it back into the project.

The below changes are for the 5.x branch of the module :

1. Made to work with the new Actions 5.x-2.x module, my understanding it currently will not.
2. Ability to add more than 1 scheduled action to a module at a time.

Below is for the 6.x branch of the module :

I would like a seperate quote to then upgrade the module to work with Drupal 6.x.

Thanks

#2 requirement there should actually read,

"2. Ability to add more than 1 scheduled action to each node during a single submit".

just as an fyi-- you can 'schedule' actions via cron runs with the http://drupal.org/project/rules module. And not just actions and advanced actions-- but code as well.

Is there any kind of tutorial on doing this specifically?

Not that I know of-- but it's pretty straight forward SS. Add a new rule, select 'cron maintenance tasks are performed' as the event, then select 'custom php code' for the action. You can also use custom php code in conditions as well. This is an unbelievably powerful module.

Also Workflow module provides scheduled actions, and there is an interesting discussion now in the issue queue of the more active scheduler module which would create a similar functionality as scheduled actions: #276376: Make scheduler more generic?.
