I need to create events with multiple time slots. Is anyone working on something like this or have any good ideas of how to do this with Signup's current functionality?

I've thought about making one regular node type to contain/summarize several Signup-enabled "time-slot" nodes. This is fairly cumbersome from a user's perspective though.

If no one else is working on this additional functionality, I plan to. Thanks.

Title: Multiple time-slots » Multiple time-slots & signup

If you have calendar module installed, and you add a date to the content type you are using for a signup , during its set up there is a "Repeating date" field with the following information:
"Repeating dates use an 'Unlimited' number of values. Instead of the 'Add more' button, they include a form to select when and how often the date should repeat.

Although I don't think it allows users to pick individual repeating dates, if that is what you are after?

What I'm after is a way for the user to choose a time slot. Say you have event A with three one-hour time slots. The user needs the ability to choose one or more of the slots to signup for. I also need the ability for a non-Drupal developer to create these multi-slot events.

Having a D7 of this may help?

Thanks zeehao. I'm not sure this module does what I need though. I think I'm going to have to figure out Signup module and add this type of functionality. Essentially what it needs is a set of variables/choices, configurable by the user, from which the signup user can choose.

In other words, the administer of signup needs to be able to specify the time slots. These could be as simple as text inputs or as complicated as two date fields. The signup user could then select from the specified time slots. Perhaps if the user specifies more than one slot, signup could create two signup objects, one fore each time slot chosen?
