Hi,
First of all, thank your for a very nice component. It serves us well at
www.dansarna.se
and we have been using it for several years now without major issues.
Now some of our events are a bit different than perhaps the regular use case. We offer Dance Courses both for individuals and for partner dances. There are some tricky things we have to manage (and we are managing them right now by some modification of the component). The first is that our courses are normally a set of weekly classes at regular times e.g. Saturdays between 15:00-16:15 for 10 weeks. Of course, we currently manage this by creating a single event spanning the whole period and just write in the text the details of the classes but it would have been nice to have all classes appear in the calendar component (this is not a big problem though).
A more difficult part is our partner classes were students can sign up as individual followers or leaders or as a couple. To balance the course to have the same number of leaders and followers we implemented a manual process of approval by our dance instructors. This means that we have an additional state in our registration process where registrants are pending approval before they are accepted and we expect them to pay. We have modified the standard component to support us in this process by basically redefining the meaning of the existing states. However, a built in feature for this approval step would have helped us very much.
Finally, a really simple request. We export registrants from each course and from a total list of all registrants using the built-in export capability but since many of our courses actually have the same name we would really appreciate to include the event ID in the export. Right now this is actually the only thing that I need to manually change every time we update the component to the latest version.
Once again. Thank you and please check out
