Hi,
We run www.hotboxevents.com which is the home of volunteers at the Reading, Leeds and Latitude Festivals.
The forum is here:
www.hotboxevents.com/community/forum/
Every year we spend a lot of time promoting lift sharing (the volunteers offering lifts to others to save both their money (many are students) and the environment). The volunteers often use the forum to try and organise lift sharing although it can get very muddled with over a thousand volunteers working at the three festivals each year.
Does anyone know of a Snitz Forum mod that may help them with this?
Many thanks for any thoughts. |

Wouldn't the Events Calendar Mod be suitable?
You can pick a date, make an event, read: lift offered/wanted and members can sign up for it and see who else has signed up. |

Subscriptions are at a minimum here - limited to the Security Announcements forum. There is an RSS feed though. |

By the way - can we not subscribe to topics or forums here? |

Thank you re the offer of writing an add-on - wasn't expecting that! Would be much appreciated.
It's being discussed here (some ideas from festival staff):
http://www.dcsiteservices.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=800
www.dcsiteservices.com is similar to HotBox Events (the volunteer organisation I mentioned in original post) although provides staff to festivals. We run both websites hence the duplicate posting re lift sharing. |

Simple is as simple does, sir.  |

Everything sounds simple until you try to figure out the details.  |

He simply wants a method to track people who (a) need a ride and (b) are offering a ride. |

Depends "assist with lift sharing" is a little too vague to really tell. What specifically do you need? |
