Issue Summary
Just curious, why the "Signup Status Certificates" sub module does not work with Drupal 6.13.
Comments
#1
Changing priority to critical since this sub module does not work at all, at least with D6.13.
#2
Not sure if it affects the workflow in any way either
#3
signup_status_cert is a completely optional add-on submodule that hasn't yet been ported to D6. I believe someone at Arizona State University (ASU), is working on the port, so they might provide a patch here. However, this is hardly critical -- signup_status_cert is pretty obscure -- I doubt anyone *other* than ASU (the folks who originally wrote it) actually cares about the functionality it provides. Please see modules/signup_status_cert/README.txt for more info.
#4
Certificates are one of the very, very useful features of the signup status module for us (in D5). We're not looking to move to D6 until summer 2010, but it's a common need in education to grant such certificates and saves a lot of staff time! Maybe we're the only other ones who care, but I thought I'd let you know there's at least one more :)
It won't become a priority until summer, but maybe the port is something we can help to support.
#5
Just wanted to point out there is a patch for this on an issue marked as a duplicate: #581530: Port of Signup Status Cert to Drupal 6.x-1.x.
I've attached the patch from user don1one here.
#6
Marking as "needs review."
#7
@mlsamuelson Thank You for the link / patch
It is not an obscure module.
#8
I tried to apply the patch to the module but got an error. Patch sent this to the rejected output file;
I was trying to apply it to "signup_status-6.x-1.0-alpha2.tar.gz"

I see that this patch is trying to patch both the .install and the .module file, seems like it was meant for an early version?

Here is a reroll against the latest dev version. I'll report after some more testing.

Sorry, I missed the .info hunk.
