Scheduled rule keeps on going [resolved]

Posted by Goofy2k on December 2, 2009 at 10:25pm

Hi,

["Issue" resolved. It appeared that the scheduled rule triggered a new rule that scheduled a rule again. Apparently this messes up the queue]]

I have a scheduled rule that is scheduled from within another rule.

This other rule is triggered upon updating a node that contains a CCK date field. The scheduling time is based on this date field by using a corresponding token.

So far, so good. After updating the node I see the scheduled rule appearing in the scheduled rules queue. When the scheduled time has passed, the action in the rule is executed.

The problem is:

Using rules to send a reminder (alarm) to the assignee of a case and instead of the author of a node

Posted by buzink on December 6, 2009 at 1:35am

I am using Rules to send a reminder for cases in open atriums case tracker based on a date field. I came quite far (http://drupal.org/node/652158), but I'm having trouble sending the mail to the right user. Right now, the mail goes to the author of the node. I would like it to go the assigned user for that case however. The assignee is not a content field, but a custom value created by the case tracker module. In views I can use case tracker fields, but the case tracker context doesn't show up in the rules argument data type list.

Upon forum post, send email to a certain person (not admin)

Posted by ShannonK on January 10, 2010 at 2:41am

I watched a video pertaining to Rules and thought I would be able to use it to send an email to a certain User when a specific forum receives a post. Action/Triggers doesn't provide this (as far as I can tell). So I have the Rules module installed, however, it doesn't look like this is an option. It looks like admin would get an email if ANY comment is posted, but that's not what I'm after. First of all, am I right that Forum posts are considered "comments?" And then, is it possible to have a specified User receive an email alert when his forum receives a post?

Trigger rule argument confusion

Posted by vfilby on January 11, 2010 at 9:18pm

I have a node profile field using content profile. That profile field has a drop down list that contains a status value (approved, rejected, pending, etc). I would like to create a cck_field_has_value rule based on that value. The idea is this, when the value is 'approved' the rule would:

Publish the profile node
Subscribe them to a group

I can get the profile node published, but when I add the subscribe to a group action the only possibilities for the selected group are 'changed content' and 'unchanged content'. I assume that the type of rule I created defines the arguments. in my case I don't need a dynamic group, I always want to subscribe them to the same group. How can I do this?

Approach for assigning a user to a certain role based on user profile (locative) data

Posted by klamoureux on January 14, 2010 at 3:08am

Hi there,

I have my first Drupal site up and just polishing up some of the UX / Business rules elements of the site.

I need to be able to assign users to ttwo different roles based on their user:location_country attribute.
If they are from US/Canada - they go to one role, otherwise they go to another role.

I know i have to execute some PHP when the User is created, but i am not sure of the syntax or how to set it up.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Kit

Update, Delete trigerred rules for a given content type

Posted by tsega on January 19, 2010 at 10:52am

I have a content type Education, used by the user to fill in his/her educational information. I want to use rules to redirect the user to his profile page, whenever a user creates, updates or deletes his/her educational information. I have been able to do it for create but how do I do it for update and delete?

Thanks for reading this.

Copy taxonomy terms from nodes to CCK-nodereferenced node.

Posted by sjf on January 20, 2010 at 1:33pm

With Rules, is it possible to copy taxonomy terms from nodes X, Y and Z to node N? Nodes X, Y and Z would contain a CCK nodereference field to reference node N.

Rules 7.x-2.x Development Update

Posted by fago on January 21, 2010 at 9:18am

I'm currently working hard on the drupal 7 compatible 2.x version of Rules. So what's new?

The whole API has been revised, so it's more modular, extensible and easier to use. So now all rule elements (conditions, actions, ORs, ANDs, LOOPs) are reusable components on its own, e.g. a module not interested in Rules could easily reuse just the conditions.
New rule elements may be contributed by modules. Rules comes now with support for loops (and data lists) too.
