Job done module?

Does anyone know of a module which I could adapt to do the following:

I have a set of tasks for my users to carry out. I want the module to allow each of the users to indicate that they have done one of the tasks.

Example: An advertising poster needs to be put in different buildings around campus. When someone has done a building they can tick it off from the list.

Task 1
Put poster 1 in:
Building A Done by Bob
Building B Not done
Building C Done by Bill
etc.

Task 2
Put poster 2 in:
Building A Not done
Building B Done by Fred
Building C Not done
etc.

xHelp was my first choice but this has 1 task, 1 person done. I would have to setup the same task many times for each buildling.

I tried sstatus from the modules cvs, but this was quite buggy.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Graham

If you have found bugs in SSTATUS, please report your bugs on dev.xoops.org. We will fix it

I tried a few modules but sstatus looks to be the best.

I found how to fix sstatus in this thread and it now looks good.

At the moment it seems that the "Update a Service Status" appears in the Admin area. This will scare my users big time Maybe I should post in the sstatus forum on the dev site but if you read this Akbarr could you tell me if you are still developing sstatus?

You could use xhelp for this purpose. Just don't have anyone claim ownership of the ticket, and have each person add a response to that ticket when they finish something.

I work with ackbarr and did a lot work on SSTATUS. We are doing bug fixes or feature requests if you have any. Just submit them to the SSTATUS page on dev.xoops.org and we will try to fix it.

Thank you!

Thanks ejuden01,

One minor bug while I remember: if you "update status" but leave the description blank it diverts to:

/modules/sstatus/admin/addMemo.php?id=2 and not
/modules/sstatus/addMemo.php?id=2

Possible updates:

1) It would be nice to have a link to the "update status" page from the user area.

2) As I said above it would be good to move the "update status" page out of the admin area for normal users - admin area is scary.

I will look into making the changes myself - is the CVS up to date or is there a branch that I should use?

Thanks for your very quick response

Sorry about not paying much attention to SSTATUS, we have been working on xhelp quite a bit.

If you enable the SSTATUS Options block in the sstatus module, you can achieve this.

No problem, xhelp looks fantastic but I think it is too complicated for my users (they struggle with posting to the forum )

I'll post to the dev.xoops.org pages once I have thought of any other cool features.
