Where am I looking?
Add Sessions - Add breaks
Think I fixed it, but let's stop there for tonight. Gotta be up at 4:30am, and I want to handle this testing a little differently. Not your fault. But given the great complexity of this, and with me being the coder who built and understands the underlying complexity, I think it would be better if I guide the testing.

Okay, just me know when you will be available. I'll still be working and testing this regardless.

Our purpose here is to streamline the scheduling. It would be nice to see that other data (Location), but seeing Date AND Time is more important.

The balance we're trying to strike is between displaying all that information on that page vs. sending the Admins off to another page to enter the data.

Optimally we would optimize both. As I envision that, I see two different versions of this page. Don't worry. I'm not suggesting that. I'm just thinking out loud.

Given that we have taken this plunge, I think that what I said last night is accurate. Seeing the entire Date and Time is more important than including some of that other data. The question becomes what should we lose to make more room. If our new purpose for this page is organizing Days, Sessions, Breaks and Locations, then Location is more important than Attendees.

The thing about prioritizing Locations is that it would be a pretty rare that different Sessions would have different Locations. In that rare situation, though, it would be pretty important.

Question: Is it practical to somehow make this page somehow dual purpose--shrink or expand columns as needed... or something?

Let's deal with this first. I see two options:

1. This: http://bacubacu.com/colresizable/#samples

2. Or, something custom I could create quick and easy where you check which columns you want to see. For example:

Select Columns to Display
==================
  • Type
  • Start Date and Time
  • End Date and Time
  • Title

[] Summary
[] Location
  • Status
  • Attendees


I kind of like the second one.

Me too! Later we will introduce this elsewhere. Now back to testing. I'm gonna delete all events etc., so we can test in a more orderly manner.

When you do get back, test by adding an Event with NO days. How is it the process? If okay, delete the Event, and add another Event with 2 days. Good? In both cases, anything should change in the Add Event modal popup?

Create 0 day Event - Good

Create 1-day Event - Date of Event shows, but Date and Time of Day does not show.

I see it now. Did you edit afterwards?
