3 ======================================================================
4 This file contains specific instructions for upgrading your site's
5 version of signup.module to a new release. You should always check
6 this file when you download a new version to see if there are any
7 specific things you need to know about a certain upgrade.
8 ======================================================================
10 * Upgrading to 6.x-1.0-rc3 (from any earlier version)
11 There is a new permission called "cancel signups" which is required
12 to cancel other user's signups at the signup administration tab at
13 node/N/signups. There is no automatic upgrade path that adds this
14 permission to roles which current can administer signups. If you want
15 any roles to be able to cancel other user's signups, you must visit
16 admin/user/permissions and manually configure which roles should be
17 allowed to cancel other user's signups.
20 * Upgrading to 5.x-2.5 (from any earlier version)
22 The 5.x-2.5 release greatly improves themeability of this module, so
23 be sure to search the code for "function theme_" to find all the
24 things you can now override in your theme.
26 Furthermore, 5.x-2.5 adds new functionality regarding the list of
27 users who have signed up for a given node. There is now a default
28 view for this listing (if your site is running the Views module from
29 http://drupal.org/project/views). Furthermore, there are some new
30 advanced settings to control if and where you want the list of signed
31 up users to appear. See the new step #8 in the INSTALL.txt file.
34 * Upgrading to 5.x-2.3 (from any earlier version)
36 The 5.x-2.3 release improves support for the Views module, by moving
37 all of the hard-coded parts of the signup interface that can be
38 implemented with views into a separate file (signup_no_views.inc).
39 This file is only included if the Views module is not enabled on your
40 site. Now, you have full control to modify the "Current signups"
41 block and the listing of current signups at user/[#]/signups using the
42 Views administrative user interface (admin/build/views).
44 However, this means that if your site had the old "List of users
45 current signups" block enabled, and you have the Views module
46 installed (or install it at any point when running signup 5.x-2.3 or
47 later), you will have to manually enable the "Current signups" block
48 (which might also have the name "signup_current_signups") by visiting
49 the admin/build/block page on your site.
51 NOTE: the default views that are defined by signup_views.inc work
52 best with at least Views version 5.x-1.6 or later.
