I'm thinking that I like to be able to set Sessions and Breaks in one screen, not Sessions OR Breaks.
I take that back.

Here's what I'd like to see to streamline this process:
  • Are you sure message when Break encroaches on Session
  • Edit content on /admin-manage-events/ screen

Then, if we don't make Date and Time required on [Add Session] or [Add Break] Admin could just add the number of Sessions and then set Date, Time, Title and Description here: /admin-manage-events/

Note that 10/9 has a lunch break that ends one hour after the afternoon session begins. It is unlikely that this would be the Admin's intent, but in the interst of flexibility we should allow it, but somehow flag it. Assuming that it's wrong, we don't know whether the Session starts to soon of the Break goes too late so we should not disallow anything. We should make this conflict obvious and easy to correct. We don't want to send them away; rather let them edit right there on that page: /admin-manage-events/

Try to add two Sessions to 10/10 properly and get:

Oops!
No selection to add!

The other day we streamlined the process by allowing Admin to toggle Active/Inactivate without leaving the main /admin-manage-events/ page.

What I'm suggesting is that we allow edit of the rest of those fields there also: Start, End, Title, Summary & Location.

That's gonna be really problematic due to the underlying jQuery. That page is huge, and loaded to the max with jQuery. I would like to avoid that. We already see how small changes drag out.

Your'e the boss and I'm crashing. How about just change Time there? Require date on Add screen, but allow change Start and End Time so Admin can move them around in visual interface... without opening each one individually in another screen.

If it's a bad idea, let's move on.

Uh, if we're not going to implement my idea, should go back and make Date and Time required on Add Session or Add Break page?

Or how about, add clock icon to Day and have it open a popup that allows changing times of all Sessions and Breaks on that Day? How about that?
