Hi I really like phpScheduleIt - it seems a really good solution. I've implemented the current release this week on a test server and and might be able to spend some time testing the new version. I had just posted a project on freelancer.com to build enhancements to the previous version (room management System - see http://www.freelancer.com/projects/Software-Architecture/Room-Management-System.html  . So the question for me would be if you got some help, how long till there could be a releasable Beta that I could install as a working solution? I've been working with other room/resource booking systems this year and have a good understanding of requirements, how they work etc - I need to implement a solution for a church (ideally Open Source with me throwing some time and money in). I could also potentially divert the resource for my project to do work that you could include in the release 2.0 project. You have already added several of the features I was going to develop (remove calendars from booking page, photos for rooms, menu bar etc). Main missing ones (for me) are adding billing rates to Resources (rooms), a discount rate for a user together with billing address etc and the ability to create invoices etc. Can you contact me if this is of interest?

Fatal error: Call to undefined method DateTime::setTimestamp()

Another php 5.3 only feature.  This is fixed (and will be deployed shortly)

a way to signify an item/resource returned

What's a more generic term for this?  I'm not sure I'd want to "return" a conference room, for example.  Would it work to just have a "I'm finished with this booking" button?

"Reservation or Booking "Closed" "released" "finished" "ended" As long as there is a way to indicate this it doesn't matter to me anyway... the exact wording.

Is the demo functional? It seems very limited and I can't seem to be able to create a booking! Also "Find and Opening" doesn't have a Submit button???
Also, in Admin mode when I click "Manage Quotas" I get a MySql fatal exception!

Should I be be installing the Alpha code on my server?

Looks like it will be a great tool when complete though.

Thanks in advance.

Yes.  The reminder functionality hasn't been built yet, but this will be included.

It is, but it is the development version of the code so it has the occasional bug or two (or 10 Smiley

"Find and Opening" is something I started then immediately abandoned, realizing that other core features were still missing.

"Manage Quotas" was broken because the nightly database cleanup job was broken.  It has been corrected.

The code is fine to install in any environment with the caveat that it is essentially a "nightly build" release.  It is guaranteed to change very rapidly, but it should be functional.

This week's release has a slew of more bug fixes.  It also includes the start of the Manage Reservations admin tool.  At this point reservations can be searched and opened from the page, but cannot be deleted or approved just yet (that should be next week).

Since we're starting to finish up most of the core functionality, the next thing we're planning is the installer so we can begin getting some feedback around that.

Thanks again to everyone who is posting here with bugs, questions and ideas.  This is very valuable.

We have been using a modified version of phpShceduleIT for almost two years now. I love the direction you're going in. Adding multiple resources per reservation is a biggie and a nice new feature. It looks like some of the core functionality from 1.0 is missing. Here are the things I noticed:
  • No accessories (Where did they go?)
  • No on-the-fly stats. We use these all the time.
  • I like the idea of "Find an Opening". Really looking forward to that.
  • The idea of having resource states would be spectacular. In other words being able to mark a resource as "Checked Out", "Checked In", "Overdue", "Broken - Sent for Repair", "Broken - Ready for Retire", etc.

Thanks for your quick response Nick.
I have downloaded the latest source - is there any install docs - the development getting started txt file doesn't seem to match the dir/file list??

Hi Nick,

I'm looking forward to using phpschedulit! I'm a webmaster at a university in the Netherlands and we are currently using something similar but by far worse than your code.

Just 2 questions I have:
1. Do you have a date/estimate for the release of version 2 (beta)?
2. How will the quota page work (since I also get the error)? We now have a quota system where users use up quota per item categorie, so that eventually they'll run out and won't be able to reserve these kinds of items anymore. Is you quota-system anything similar?

Thanks, Steven

Installed the latest version locally but after registering a user I get the following error when logging in:-

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at C:\xampp\htdocs\phpscheduleit\development\lang\en_us.php:1009) in C:\xampp\htdocs\phpscheduleit\development\Pages\Page.php on line 60

Am I doing something wrong?

Also, when registering the Language drop down list is empty!

cheers

Hi Nick, great work!

Could you please list the instructions for the installation of 2.0 ?

Also, I'm an experienced PHP coder if ever you need additional help with the project.

Thanks,

S

Both of these will be included.

Can you give me some examples of how you would use this?
