Is it possible to add volunteer time slots to any event type, instead of just the one that is created by the module?

Well, it's *possible* in an abstract sense, but it is not possible with the code currently in the module. Perhaps you could outline the use case you have in mind.

Well, for learning purposes I'm developing a dance community website, which includes classes, practice sessions, and dance parties.

I'd like to be able to create a content type (I'm using flexinode if that makes a difference) for those three different types of events, and allow people to volunteer for each of those... So I'd like more granularity of event types than the pre-created 'event with volunteer timeslots'

Ideally, I'd also like to have timeslots for multiple roles: Door watching time slots, food replenishing time slots, etc.

I'd have implementation be similar to event repeat, where there's a check box available in the content type definition for 'allow volunteer time slots', where event repeat has its 'allow repeat events' checkbox (or whatever the exact syntax is)

Is that a clear enough description? I have absolutely no idea how much work would be involved with this idea

what you want would require a substantially different underlying data structure.

Since I wrote this module to satisfy my specific needs, you'll either need to adapt this or write your own (or pay someone to do it). I'm not a very experienced module developer, so to get things to their current state (including some proposed but not yet committed features) has probably required 50-60 hours of my time.
