OK now I must apologize. I cannot reproduce the "bug" so maybe it doesn't exist. And now since I can in fact create multiple club stations, I see how to set it up for my operation. There will be a separate log for each SE call, which I think we are OK with, though all in one log I think would be nice.

Very terse summary is:
Create an admin user.
Create a club station, and location, and logbook, for each special event (SE) callsign.
Create an officer user.
Create users for each operator.
(Below assumes all operators might use any of the SE calls)
Using the admin user, add all operator users and the officer to each club station.
Give all the operators operator privilege. Give the officer officer privilege.
Now when an operator logs in, they "switch to" the SE they are going to use and start logging.

It's basically what the wiki says, but I found I had to interpolate quite a bit.

Thanks for the cool tool. I think we will try it.

I'm getting this configuration hammered out. One challenge is adding all the members one by one through the web ui, then joining them to the 8 "club stations" (special event calls). It's slow, tedious, repetitive, since they are all 90% the same. Is there a way to batch it up? Or another possibility, is a user's definition all contained in one or a few tables and I could write my own batch process to add the user and join it to each of the club stations?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hello @wizardofaz

As you already found a solution for the first questions about setting this up - I also would choose the way to create a dedicated clubstation for each special event call as this make it much easier to understand for the user.

Batch Insert ... Well sure you could "easily" insert new users directly into the database. But be aware that there are multiple tables involved. But once you found yourself a way for one user it might be easy to use SQL to insert those users into the database. unfortunately there is no documentation for this at the moment. My time is pretty limited at the moment but if you are able to write a script it would be awesome to share it with the community in the wiki :) Maybe I'll find some time to prepare something aswell but I'm pretty sure you'll be faster then me. :-D

I have a script that will add a list of users and join each one to all existing club stations. It's quite special-purpose to our needs and is guaranteed to have bugs. It is mostly ChatGPT generated code. It's Python code and accesses the db via remote connection. I am happy to share it but with no significant documentation or offer of support.
