Обсуждение: pgweb : adding a "duplicate event" button ?
Hi, I'm currently uploading dalibo's training schedule for 2013 to the pg.org website. This means I have to submit 35+ events, which have almost the same description except for the begin/end dates of course. However when I click on the "submit event" button, I get an empty form and then I need copy/paste the content from a previous event. This is quite a boring experience. Am I the only one doing such thing ? Is anyone interested in a "clone" button, so we could just start with a form loaded with data from a previous event ? I took a brief look at the pgweb source code but I'm not sure where to start. I can't even find where the template for : https://www.postgresql.org/account/events/new/ Any help is welcome...

And since it's all moderated, i guess the risk of abuse is not *all* that large :) > I took a brief look at the pgweb source code but I'm not sure where to > start.

You'd either have to extend that one with the duplicate functionality (which would be useful if we can assume there will ever be another type of object that we'd want cloning ability for), or have the events no longer use that one. (it's called from events/views.py) --Magnus HaganderMe: http://www.hagander.net/Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/
