I want the old way back to generator meetings #55

Closed alangrady closed 10 months ago

alangrady commented 10 months ago

I created a document in Indesign for Raleigh, NC meetings schedule. Before you make changes to the "system", I entered 4.5 x 6 inches, no pages numbers, with the meeting guide. Export it. Imported into Indesign. Tada. Start printing new versions of the meeting schedules.

Now. 😱 I appreciate all your work on the new system of pdf generation... kudos. BUT I want the old way back. 😄

Your efforts have been good. The new PDF is great, however all of the useful features of the old system need to be incorporated. We have a need to be able to print the list by specified City / District(s) Please!

We haven't made large scale changes to the PDF service in a while. Can you give me a little more detail on what has changed that isn't there anymore?

Are you saying there once was a feature to group the listings by City/District? I don't remember that, but I haven't been maintaining this project long-term. Can you send examples or give me a bit more detail? As I mentioned in my reply to @alangrady, we haven't made any major changes to PDF in a while.

No, there is a need to add that feature. We have a listing of meetings that covers a large portion of the state and to have a simple way to provide regional accurate printed list Thank you Stan Don't bother just to be better than your contemporaries or predecessors. Try to be better than yourself.

Stan, so you'd like to be able to filter by City or District and ONLY print those meetings in the existing format? I can submit as a feature request and we can see if we can get it on the roadmap.

@anchovie91471 ,

I posted a link to what I want.

By City... Posting link again https://capture.dropbox.com/oBl4RPoXt1gRThD4

Thanks for all your work on this project. 👏

But, I want the OLD way back. 😄 Or give me the option to select the OLD way

Before it splits out to "PDF Generation Settings". I don't install that plugin. I went to the site to check on meeting... none there. I went to admin and found the "12 Step Meeting List" wasn't Activate. I then saw beneath that "12 Step Meeting List"... "12 Step Meeting PDF Generator" plugin. 🤔 So, I Activated both of them.

I went to export my meetings for my InDesign document... 😢😢 The old way was GONE! Now I up a creek without a paddle. 🤣

joshreisner commented 10 months ago

hi @alangrady - i'm also at a loss about what the "OLD" way was - if i:

i get the attached PDF which looks, to my eye, identical to the dropbox link you posted: directory.pdf

is this what you want?

One-Rook commented 10 months ago

Thank you - I will try to be more clear next time from the start. This will help a lot Love & Service Stan Don't bother just to be better than your contemporaries or predecessors. Try to be better than yourself.

🤦‍♂️ I had a stroke a few years ago... I blaming my mistake on the stroke. 🤣

pdf.code4recovery.org is what I was talking about it. The OLD way.

But... I noticed that section of the Meeting area under "Import & Export" section. 🤦‍♂️ SO SORRY... the new "12 Step Meeting PDF Generator" threw me with a loop and I couldn't think straight. 😄

SO SORRY @anchovie91471 . Close this ticket and burn it.

SO SORRY

anchovie91471 commented 10 months ago

@alangrady I’m just glad we got it worked out for ya! No apology needed!! Let me know if you have other suggestions.

@One-Rook Im going to isolate your request into a separate feature request discussion. We are looking into some options to help you out!
