Add users and groups to the calendar

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,

I am creating a website with a private part for registred users. Each user 
belongs to a group.
There are 24 groups and 400 users.

I would like to add 2 fields to the calendar formula.

1. A dropdown menu with the names of the groups
2. A dropdown menu with the names of the users that belong to the group 
selected in 1.

Here is a screenshot of what i would like:

I am not inclined to add another layer of user management on top of the 
existing model.  If you can explain how this functionality would be used, I may 
be able to assist with a solution that takes advantage of the existing 
WordPress user management architecture.

Hello,

Thank you very much for your answer.

The website i am creating is going to be used by doctors, who are going to be 
registered as "subscribers" in the website.
I would like to use your calendar as a duty planner for the doctors. When they 
are logged, they can see when they are on watch.
Because there are around 400 doctors split in 24 groups (each group corresponds 
to a city around Charleroi in Belgium), I need to add 2 new fields in the 
calendar formula.
First, a field that select the group and second one of the doctors (who belongs 
to that group) who will be on duty.

Do you think it is possible to do that? To make a connection with the users 
registred in wordpress?

If I understand correctly, it sounds like you want to allow users to filter 
both by city and by doctor name.  Currently, the calendar can only accommodate 
half that request; you can create categories for each city, but you cannot 
further categorize events by doctor name.

As for the user registration, the FAQ describes how you can setup user accounts 
to give them access to input their own events.

If more people express interest in this feature I may consider adding it to the 
queue, but for now I can't provide any idea of when that might be.

Thanks for your feedback.

The scope of this request is beyond the intended functionality of this product 
and therefore is being eliminated from consideration.
