Discussion about the "Rules bug squad"
I just started a wiki page that describes the objectives of the new helper team for the Rules project – currently only in preliminary terms.
Since you can't write comments to wiki pages here at g.d.o, this is a post for discussing the content of the wiki page.

Please Help: Need: IF Profile2 field (checkbox) has value
Hi, I'm very new to rules and it seems like a wonderful module but I just can't figure this out.
I have a Profile2 profile with a checkbox for "Become an Author". So what I want is, if this is checked (returns the value associated with the become an author), then an action grants the user the Author Role.
The problem is, I can't get the field to come up under Data Comparison... it shows the profile generically, but not any of the fields. If I try Entity Has Field, it doesn't give me an option to tell it what the field needs to be equal to.
Read moreWriting a custom module for rules
This is difficult to explain so I've attached a schematic. I have to create a rule that updates raw material inventory when a product moves into production. There are several tables (content types) involved. The rule involves a couple db_queries with some looping and simple calculations until a field is updated.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. I am aware I'll probably need to write a custom module, but I haven't found any that are similar to my situation using rule_hooks. I am using rules 1/drupal 6.

Create body content, not just title?
Hi.
I created a Rule to create a new entity when a new account is created. That was easy.
But, there is only the option to create the Title of the Entity, not the body or content.
Can it be done?
Thank you
Read moreGSoC Proposal - Improving Rules 2
Hi Rules users,
I just wanted to inform you about my Google Summer of Code 2011 project proposal.
It's about extending Rules 2 by queuing system and a custom link module as well, as adding some usability improvements.
The queuing system will allow you to postpone the execution of rules sets and the custom links module will allow users to add links, which trigger Rules, to any Entities.
list of nodes - field containing e-mail - send nodes an email with attachment - mime mail - how?
I have a list of nodes, compiled through a View.
Each node contains a field with an email address.
I would like to send an email to the email address contained within each node, including an attachment.
Part of the email message would be pre-configured, with tokens to customize items such as the attachment, and the attachment is not contained within the node. The end result is the same message to each node.
I have set up a Rule Set with Mime Mail which allows for Attachments but seems to allow for only pre-configured emails.
Any ideas? Thank you.

Rules or Notifications?
Wise ones. I shall try to avoid causing the offence I have elsewhere through excess verbiage :-(.
Oops. Blew that one already :-).
Thanks indeed to pbarnett and WillHall, I've been able to stumble (stumbling being my own lack of competance rather than any issue with Rules) to this:
When [new comment added]
_____Where [comment author is not] [list of roles]
Then
_____[create email to] [list of specific email addresses]
__________Containing [date stamp when comment added] [user name of comment author] and [comment body]
Send an email X days in the future.
Drupal 7, Rules 2b1, Webform 3.9, Webform Rules
I have a custom implementation of Webforms that has a select field with the options having values in unix-time date value strings (ie: 1302159600). It is generating these strings from cck multi-value fields in other nodes. This part is working fine.
