Feature Question was created by LexLodon
I am looking for a way to have our registered users check in each day to let us know that they are available for us to contact them. I was thinking of a Blog page or something, but I would prefer not to have users seeing each others posts or replies.

In simple terms, I would like to have a registered user that is already logged in to our system go to a specific page on our site and just click on a link or update a status that would indicate that they are available for that day.

Is there any way that Community Builder will do that natively? Or is there any other extension that you would recommend?

CB has no such feature, but I suppose you could just use a checkbox field that lets them mark their availability. You could even use CB Core Fields Ajax to make it ajax editable so they won't need to visit profile edit to mark the checkbox either.

As for resetting the checkbox back to unchecked each day you could do that using a Field action on the Internal Users trigger then running the internal users CRON URL daily (schedule it in CRON so it's automated) or probably more efficiently with the Internal General and just update all users database rows changing the checkbox field column back to 0 with a single query using a Query action.
