Drupal module for complex hours of operation / office hours
- by Eronarn
Background:
I am building a website in Drupal that links together a wide variety of social service providers for the purposes of discovery, collaboration, and all that good stuff. The goal is to make a website that is simple to browse for consumers of these services and simple to update for providers of these services. The beta has been very well received, but I want to switch to a different information schema before the site goes live.
Specific question:
I am looking for a module (or other solution) that...
Stores this data in Drupal (i.e., no GCal)
Supports a wide variety of repeats
Is intuitive for people editing the node (no Cron-style interfaces, please!)
I have looked into several modules on drupal.org and none seem to meet all of these criteria. I've also searched here, and while this question is similar:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2794149/drupal-create-a-node-with-employee-working-hours
my needs are too complex for the offered solution. Some of these providers have "hours" such as "the third Wednesday of every month", or "open during Winter months", or separate hotline & office hours. Likewise, the Date Repeat module doesn't cut it as stands currently.
I'm comfortable hacking what I need into an existing module - I just don't want to duplicate effort! If you have a suggestion on what module might be a good starting point, I'd appreciate that input, too.
Thanks. <3
