Easy solution for a hitchhiking site... any creative ideas?
Permalink
Hey there people :)
I am trying to help a local community to set up a hitchhiking site.
The function should be pretty simple:
Person A thinks about going to place P at time T and has the most easy way of publicating this to the community-wide page.
So the function should contain an easy (old-people-easy) method of posting a date, time and place, which should then be displayed on a publicly available site. After the departure date has passed, the post should be deleted, so the page does not need any administration of content.
I thought about maybe an email-based solution with a fixed format:
Person A sends an email with the content Date/Time/Place to a secret email adress and the content gets displayed on the site.
Or a form solution... But I am afraid this could be already too "complicated" to set up...

If i wanted to implement this, i would go with custome single page form, save data at the custome table, and a single page grid for showing the available items. A simple crud at front.
As it is date/time/place oriented, maybe one of the calendar or events addons would be a good starting point.
