At the moment the manager's email seems to be stored as a user custom field in the user's profile. By default facetoface looks for a custom field with a shortname of 'managersemail'.

So to set up for a user, first check that you have a 'managersemail' custom field:

1. As administrator, click Site Admin > Users > Accounts > User Profile Fields
2. If there is a field called 'managersemail' you're all set
3. If there isn't create a new profile field with type 'text input'.
4. Set the shortname to 'managersemail'.

Once the field exists, you can edit it via the user's edit profile page.

Hi Joachim,

Thanks for trying it out.

About the title, do you mean the 'location', 'venue' and 'room' fields? I assume they were intentionally removed, because now you can create those or any other fields that you need using session custom fields:

Go to Site Admin > Plugins > Activites > Face-to-face

and click on the 'Create a new custom field' link. Any fields you create here will appear in the add and edit session form. They were probably removed so you don't need to see them if you don't want to.

As for the block, we'll need to provide new code to match the changes made to the module. We've written the new version, but it's not currently online. I'll try and update it and add a link here.

I agree it would be a useful feature, but unfortunately, that's not how it was originally built to work.

Currently a lot of the interface, and presumably the backend code, works based on the assumption that each user is only enrolled in a session once. A change of that size is possible, but would require a reasonable amount of development time.
