Python-based free sign up sheet software that is easy to use.
Why choose PySignup? Firstly, it's free and open-source. Additionally, it's lightweight, easy-to-use, install and configure, providing straightforward access to beginners and experts alike.
Regarding installation, PySignup is designed for simplicity, and the hardest part is probably configuring your webserver. Creating a CGI-enabled directory containing the PySignup files is necessary, and it's crucial to disable CGI scripts for files with the extensions ".css" and ".js." If index.py opens successfully on your web browser, your directory is properly set up, if not something is probably wrong.
Once you launch change.py on your browser and enter the default password "pysignup," log in, modify the different fields as you wish, ensuring to change the location, the nextevent, and sitename settings, then click the change button. However, most settings are probably fine as they are. For security purposes, restrict web access to data.py, sessions.py, sqlite.db, settings.conf, and the backups directory.
For configuration, many ways exist to customize your PySignup. The best approach is to use the change.py web interface, read through each setting, and apply the necessary changes. The theme setting in the required section is made for customization, allowing you to pick from the blue, black, grey, and grass themes, which substantially change the color scheme. You could also display a custom message to all users by adding text to the "message" setting. Custom Cascading Style Sheets or JavaScript are also possible using user.css/user.js in the skins directory.
