Set default view for Timetables

I would like to be able to set the timetable manager view of all timetables to default to period view. I was able to do this through the Control Panel>Features module, but now this has been removed and the default for my timetables is for Day V...

Switching to a new timetable loses all previous cover data in Cover Manager

We switch timetables during our academic year (as many schools do e.g. during exam periods). When we do that, it wipes out any historical data from the cover module, rendering the statistics meaningless. Is there a way we could retain the stats of...

Copy Pupils into other Sets without Linking

Ability to build a timetable for an applicant BEFORE they start at school
