Hey there, thanks for this awesome module which brings the power of doodle into my drupal project.

One question: would it be possible to output the final selected date nicely via the rules module? At the moment I cant find any field which would provide this.

Thanks and cheers, Moritz

I think that would be a killer feature:

  1. It would be nice, to have an extra permission, that enables the user to finish a poll by selecting one date as the final date.
  2. If we would have a rules action, reacting on that, we could use this final date to put it in a date field (of the same node or an other one) programmatically.
  3. Then we could create a meeting/event node, with the final date of the make meeting poll programmatically when the poll is finished.

I have been thinking about this functionality as well, with exactly the pieces that @gunwald suggested. (Although I hadn't thought about an extra permission for finalizing the date; I just assumed the meeting node author would be the only one who could do that.) That seems like the missing piece this module needs.

Having a field for the final meeting date would also allow you to use Views to keep a poll visible until the meeting date had passed, which would be handy.
