Hi,

I would like to know if signup_status can be configure to be a waiting list module. ie. basically there is no end date. no association with event.

Just a in-out queue.

I would also like to associate this with the location module. Would the best way be to create a CCK type with location and signup as attributes? Basically I have multiple classrooms, in different locations. Potential students want to signup for the classrooms, and I need to allocate it to the teachers.

Is there a better way of doing this?

drupal 5 version : request http://drupal.org/node/176427.

How can this be configure?

Thanks in advance.

cheers

I made this custimization-module to add default status and waiting list feature. Since it is a hack, and not a proper module, you need to follow a few rules in order to make it work. The default, and waiting list status, must be "shown on form", the module will in any case. Also, the waiting list status mustn't modify signup count, or it will not be available in the settings page. Settings for this module is located at same page as settings for signup status. You can contact me in this thread if you have problems or run into nasty bugs.

EDIT: After reading you post properly I realized this module probably won't solve your problem. Perhaps organic groups would be better suited?

Hi David,

Thanks for listening.

I will look into og.

I'm not sure if it's too heavy though.

I'm looking at creating a business directory using cck + views with some additional functionality like signup/waiting list.

If this eventually duplicates the effort of og, I might else well start with og.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Np, hope you find a solution. Here is a new version of the module if any one needs the functionallity offered by it.

New version of the "signup_status_hack" - module, renamed signup_status_waiting_list. (Hopefully) working with current versions of signup and signup_status:

Hi gnucifer,

Thank you for sharing your "hack" module, but it doesn't seem to work for me. I wonder if I missed something obvious. Maybe I need to call my waiting list status differently? I understood that Waiting list related configuration should show up on the Signup status administration page (admin/settings/signup_status). I enabled your module, but no extra configuration showed up (see screenshot). I compared the release dates for the Signup, Signup status and your module and it looks like no changes were made to either Signup or Signup Status modules after you created a second version of you Waitlist module.
