Attendance?

[Tridion]

There is an example of implementing an events forum with XThreads. This is a really nice mod.

I would also like to add an attendance mod to this. Would this be possible to implement with XThreads? It would add something like the following to the first post in each thread:

Attendance:

Yes:
{list of members}

No:
{list of members}

Maybe:
{list of members}

My Status:
{list box with options 'Yes', 'No' or 'Maybe'}  {Submit button}


Would this be possible with XThreads? Or would I need to write this plugin myself? I am prepared to do so but don't want to reinvent the wheel.

@ Tridion - if you mean the events forum set up by RateU and as the example he has posted here, then what you COULD do is use the signup sheet that was made for 1.4. That allows you to add a sign up sheet to a calendar event. Then you can have the event details in the thread (as done by RateU) and a link to the signup sheet in the calendar.

Very quick example here:

You can use the testuser log in

testuser
testuser1

This would require the thread creator to make the calendar event etc themselves, but its easy to do, the sign up form could be configured a little better too.

Or maybe the closest thing is using the default MyBB poll systems, and make it as Public Poll, so the list of members who choose for each option can be viewed? Or maybe I've misunderstood it

Excellent idea - can we style polls I wonder???

[RateU]

Yes, we can.
