frontend editing of webinars #3

Any plans for making a snippet to enable frontend editing of webinar documents? Or maybe extending the newspublisher extra from BobRay to enable webinars?

I hadn't really thought about that, I sort of assumed that anyone editing webinars would be a manager user.

However, if this would be useful I can look into it - you're probably right that the best way to do it would be to extend newspublisher.

I had a look at newspublisher, and it looks like it would be quite a bit of development to extend it to edit webinar presentations. It will already edit the basic resource info (description, summary etc) but not the presentation information. To do so would mean adding lots of fields to the form it uses, since it doesn't use the same form as the back-end editor.

I'll put this on the roadmap but honestly I don't think I'll have time to include it in the next release, maybe one or two releases further on.

That would be awesome if you could release this feature! But hopefully doesent take to long time! :) I am in a phase where i need to decide either to do something custom, or use webinar for my events.. But in any case i need frontend editing, and i need it soon :D So hopefully you can decide for this to be more important. And it might not be so hard and not so lots of coding, basicly you just need modify newspublisher class case for your custom class name probably and some form fields

OK, I'll start working on it and see what I can do, but I can't make any promises about when this will be done.
