Conference Organizing Distribution (COD)

Welcome

COD is a "Conference Organizing Distribution" meant to make it easy to build a site for manage events with features like session submission, registration, user profiles, forums, and logistical information.

You should use COD if you are building a site for a conference like a Drupalcamp or Barcamp, for an organization that offers trainings, for a Drupalcon perhaps, for a music venue that wants to sell tickets online without using ticketmaster, etc.

My COD Goals for Drupalcon Portland

Next week Ezra, Joseph, and Jakob will all be at Drupalcon to further the goals of Commons and COD, two distributions supported by Acquia.

My hopes for COD is to get another update since the Alpha2 release we did at Sandcamp. Its unfortunate that it seems updates only occur after camp, but on the otherhand it just shows how much can get done when we have the community working in the same room as each other!

These are my basic goals:
* Scale the gaps between COD6 and COD7, make a MOSCOW chart to prioritize what needs to be done.

Newbie with COD

I am having trouble understanding COD & where to start!

I sort of played around with the package - but, I sort of lost where to start.

I have been using Drupal 7 for 2yrs now, so I have an idea about Drupal in general, but I now have to go back to version 6, which is ok, but does require a little time to think where the changes are.

I sort of getting confused with Events, sessions, and schedules....

thanks
Carlo

Drupal in Education - New Website & Google+ Community

With the use of Drupal growing so rapidly in the Education field and with there being close to 80 people at the Drupacon Denver Education BOF, I think that it is time for us to unite and built a great community where we can all share ideas.

Again we are in the "very" beginning phases of building our community but would really like some input from as many people as possible.

Currently we have a website with just a form to collect information and a Google+ community.

Website: www.drupalined.com

Google Plus: https://plus.google.com/communities/102902903124131117699

COD For A Gaming Convention

Hello,

I need your help and wisdom.

I help a student group with their annual gaming convention. I have been "rolling my own" website for them for about 12 years via PHP, HTML, and MySQL. I am curious about replacing the site with COD.

My primary concerns are around the ways in which a gaming convention is different than a typical conference.

Drupal Sprints at Linuxfest Northwest

Start: 
2013-04-27 09:00 - 2013-04-28 15:00 America/Vancouver
Organizers: 

Linuxfest Northwest is coming back for 2013 -- the last weekend in April. After talking to some core maintainers, we thought it'd be a fun idea to do a sprint based around linuxfest northwest.

Sprinters are certainly welcome (and encouraged!) to submit a talk for LFNW, but the main goal is to get some sprinting done on Core in preparation for Drupalcon in May.

I'll also be leading a distros sprint, if people are interested. My main focus is on COD and Commons -- but if there are other distros that would like to host here, feel free.

Why Linuxfest Northwest?

Hello All,

May be you will find it annoying but I want to explain a situation where i want to use this bundle in my existing site.

We are going to have events in future and our site is having two types of user. One is parent & other is child. We have related then by user_ref field in custom profile content type.

So my requirement is like -

We will create event and give all the information about the event.
Fix a date range for registration of it(Content is accessible but signup will be possible only in that date range).

COD7: Rooms not showing, sessions not in order and problems with flags in views

I'm messing around with cod7, I see that when I create the schedule, sessions are all messed up, they don't show in order and also the rooms don't show at all.

I looked up the views of "session schedule" and compared it to cod6, seems like fields there (inside the views) is not calling the (flag: session_schedule) Flags: Flag link like it does in cod6.
When I tried to add that flag, its not showing up at all in the fields option.
This is how the schedule looks like in my cod7 http://i.imgur.com/LP0J2.png
This is how it should look (cod6): http://drupal.org/files/cod_7_rooms.png

Newbie question: COD for scheduling courses in a school?

Hello!

Sorry if this is off-topic but I'm still not quite up to speed with how to contact people in the Drupal community.

I'm looking for web-based software for a community college to use (internally) to schedule it's courses. Even though it's small it needs to support multiple Deans, 100-150 teachers (some full time, some part time, some not currently teaching but still interested in teaching), and several hundred courses each quarter (4 quarters per year).
