admins or node owners should be able to add registered users to signup events. Many times there are events that users plan on coming to but never bother signing up for. It'd be nice for admins and event node owners to be able to manually add them...nothing attracts a crowd like a crowd.

Version: 5.x-1.0 » 5.x-2.x-dev

Yup, I've got this feature on my locally modified version of signup for my band's site. I just need to port the code to the upstream version. *sigh*

That said, no new features in the 5.x-1.* series -- this will only happen in 5.x-2.*

can i get a copy of what you are using? Is it just a matter of removing my module and adding yours? Or would there be a database update as well?

This would be a very useful feature. Right now, it's very difficult to add users to an event... is there any other way to do it besides signing in as them?

Just adding my "me too" to have this feature implemented soon, even in the next dev version!

@modctek: great, then i'll expect to see your active participation reviewing and testing any patches i post for this module. ;) don't just hope, help. also, if you've got a budget, considering sponsoring some work on the features you'd like to see.

...I had this feature custom added to an old v4.5 eventfinder module...it was great. I paid to have it done back then but now the site is toast (didn't survive the version upgrades).

I wish I did have the budget/project to pay someone to do it (again) but I don't right now.

Absolutely would like to help. I'm a bit unorthodox in my testing and implementing, but I'll do my best to test and provide feedback. Signup is a key feature of the website I run. Alas, I have no budget, as I'm essentially building and maintaining the site for this organization pro-bono. If, at some point, they manage to scrounge together some cash to pay me, Drupal and the programmers will be on of the first places I look to spread the wealth!

I'm finally getting around to porting my signup customizations for my site into the latest 5.x-2.* code in HEAD (so I can upgrade my site!). ;) Here's a pretty clean implementation that adds a "Signup another user" fieldset to the signup admin form at node/N/signups. Testing welcome.

After that avalanche of reviews and testing, I went ahead and committed this to HEAD. It'll be out with 5.x-2.4.

I look forward to 2.x-2.4...I'd try the patch but I have no skills on how to do it and would be afraid i'd screw things up more. If you reply here when 2.4 is ready, I'll be glad to try it out.

MANY thanks,
Mark

@mdowsett: You can use the latest copy of 5.x-2.x-dev, which already includes this change:
http://drupal.org/node/95695

You can find this on the "View all releases" page off the signup project:
http://drupal.org/node/29351/release

WICKED! AWESOME!!

Seems to work like a charm with initial testing.

Can you add it so the admin can add a non-user to the site and add in that person's email address but not make the email address public but include that user in any 'signup boradcasts'?

Thanks so much for listening.

a) signup already supports anonymous signups in general.

b) please open a separate feature request about having the admin add an anonymous signup like this -- I'd rather handle that separately.

For some reason, I can't find a copy of the dev release that contains this patch. I've downloaded 5.x-2.3-dev that doesn't appear to contain this patch, and it looks like it's dated 11-17-07. Am I looking in the wrong place? The latest version I see on the "View all releases" page is dated 11-17-07.

Weird, sorry, there was a packaging error for signup and the tarballs weren't getting regenerated. I just fixed that up and rebuilt the -dev tarballs, so grab the latest copy from http://drupal.org/node/95695 and you should be fine.

(I started this node) I'm an avid Drupal user but have no PHP experience. I get a friend of mine that is a PHP guru to do some fixes for me...he's great (REALLY great) but he doesn't have much experience with Drupal. He's added a nice feature to my signup.module that shows the events your buddies are going to in the future in your user profile's buddylist. See attached screenshot.

How can I pass that on to go to the next version? If I don't submit it, I'll lose it (or have to get it reprogrammed the next time I need to upgrade my buddylist module.

@mdowsett: Please stay on topic. Each feature belongs in its own issue. You already submitted an issue about this topic, in fact: http://drupal.org/node/216470 -- Please post your screenshots, patches, questions, comments, etc. there. Thanks.
