I'm close to finishing up a rather major update to the Attendance modification, so be on the lookout for a new version in the next couple of days. This will be posted in the 3.7 section, but I expect it to be fully compatible with 3.6.x as well. Here is a summary of the coming changes in the new version:
- Greatly improved handling of differing timezones. Hopefully, much of the problems you may have been seeing with time zone issues, etc, will be resolved now.
- Configurable response options.. You won't be stuck with Yes, No, Maybe. You can setup whatever responses you want.
- When events are updated, RSVPs will not be deleted unless the event moved to a different day, or the end date of a ranged or recurring event was shortened. Changing the recurring options will still automatically delete the associated RSVPs.
- The ability to suppress RSVP deletions on event update entirely, if you wish, although this isn't recommended.
- You can now specify a maximum number of attendees for an event. After the maximum is reached, you can configure members to either receive an error or have their response (RSVP) automatically changed to something else. This could be used to create a wait-list bucket, for instance. There won't be any automated system to move members from the wait-list if a space becomes available in this revision, however.
- The time stamp on the RSVP is no longer changed unless the member when the member simply updates his comments. The date will only be changed if the member changes from one response to another (i.e. Yes to No).
Those changes represent many of the requests that were previously made on this thread. Are there any other quick-win / easy changes that anyone else would like to see?
Thank you all for your patience. As I said, you should be seeing a new version released within the next few days or so.
