SignUpForAnAccountForOtherCalendaringClients
---
*Use Case One: Users who have downloaded the OSAF bundle*
1. User signs up for an account, clicks [okay].
2. If e-mail verification is *turned off* from person using the
OSAF bundle Instructional message appears: Start using Chandler
Server or Set up on an external application to use this account.
3. If user select Start using Chandler Server --> auto log into
Chandler (Hub) Web Application from the OSAF Bundle
4. If user selects: Set up on an external application
5. Dynamic drop down list appears:
[ Which application? | V ]
* Chandler Desktop
* Apple iCal 2.x
* Feed reader
* Other…
This will behave similar to the collection details dialog box. The
instructions and URLs will appear dynamically on the create an
account dialog. A [close] button will also appear in this dialog box.
----
*Use Case Three: Users who have downloaded the OSAF bundle*
1. If e-mail verification is *turned on*, message on dialog
displays: 'Almost done! Your account is created but not enabled. You
will receive an e-mail shortly with a link to enable your
account.' [Close]
2. User checks e-mail, clicks on the link to verify account
3. Auto log in to Chandler (Hub) Web Client.
4. User selects external client from the 'Subscribe with…' drop
down list.
*Use Case Two: Users who have sign up on Chandler Hub (same as above)*
1. If e-mail verification is *turned on*, message on dialog
displays: 'Almost done! Your account is created but not enabled. You
will receive an e-mail shortly with a link to enable your
account.' [Close]
2. User checks e-mail, clicks on the link to verify account
3. Auto log in to Hub.
4. User selects external client from the 'Subscribe with…' drop
down list.
*Note:* In all cases the table information about 'setting up a
sharing account in an external client' will not appear after signing
up for an account with Server.
---
*Questions:*
+ Is there a possibility to create a different message for users who
are signing up for an account on Hub vs. OSAF Bundle? (For a future
release, but probably not for preview?)
+ Is it possible once the user verifies their e-mail they can be
logged into the Hub account automatically?
This way users who want to sign up for a Chandler Hub account, but
for other calendar clients, it would be a one click to verify e-mail
and 'Subscribe with…' drop down list then select the appropriate
calendar client.

(PS- A shout out to bcm-please be patient with the chandler this and
chandler that product naming, I will, in time, aspire to be better at
sending these emails out to be less formal/confusing.)
