In fact, it's even easier than I thought. We have the mapping in the vb options for event forum. Like 2:254 where 2 is the calendar id and 254 is the forum. So before adding an event in the calendar, if the calendar id matches the calendar id in the options, then we do a query for that forumid to see if it is active for buy thread. If it is, then we plugin an error telling them that this method is not allowed, that they should add the event from the forum and provide them a link to do so, since we have the forumid. And we let the buythread handle it with the method described in previous thread.

We would practically be disabling adding event directly from calendar.

Zip updated with XSS flaw as per this post: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1158337&postcount=218

Version 3.3.1 i guess

I see absolutely no difference in the code for the plugin that addresses. Likewise I don't see any XSS issues. Then again maybe I had 3.3.1 installed and just can't tell because you didn't update the version number in the 3.3.1 product :confused:

I gave up... (and if you do get it working, PLEASE let me know).

I went along a different route...

Created a 1-day long membership for people who wanted to post a thread (and they have 24 hours to post that thread), and then I created a year long membership for those who wanted the ability to post unlimited threads (for a higher price, of course), and that sort of took care of the problem...

I managed to pull this off on my installation for forum events. However it requires a lot of template edits as well as a file edit. Anyone interested?

I think that's everything I did. In order to add attachments at the same time you create the event a LOT more edits were necessary and I didn't have the patience for it. Adding them after creation was good enough for me.

I have the same problem...no new event button. The button will show if the <if></if> is removed. But then it will show in all of the forums. Is there a different if statement that could be used to choose the forum that it will show up in?
i have the same issue

the New Events wont show up after following the instructions

thincom2000
02-28-2007, 12:11 AM
There's a setting for this:

Show the New Event button on the thread list.
Setting this to no will change the New Thread button to forward the user to the add event form.

Setting this to yes will add a New Event button, ONLY if you have also added the necessary template modification in FORUMDISPLAY. See the installation instructions for more information.

Is it set to yes?

stwilson

i have the same issue

the New Events wont show up after following the instructions

I can only get it to show in mine if I have the Summary of events set to yes. I have updated the template to allow it to show but it does not....even when the setting is set to Yes, while the Summary option is set to no.

This is because the plugin for forumdisplay_complete that sets $show['neweventlink'] to true uses the condition:
if(($lv_vb_eventforums_showSummaryThisThread) && ($lv_vb_eventforums_thisCalendar > 0))

I am thinking then that what you were experiencing was intentional on the coder's behalf.

I was trying to change the display of the thread title in the forum display and accomplished that. I updated it by updating the product-lv_vb_eventforums_v3_3.xml file and installing it with "Allow Overwrite" set to Yes.

After my update, the thread title is showing up twice in the thread view (if that's the right term). I've attached an image of what is going on.

If anyone can tell me what went wrong and how to fix it, I would certainly appreciate it. I tested this change on my test forum, but didn't notice the duplication until I had applied it to my live forum. :o

Check your postbit_display_start hook for Hide the first post on Event Threads. It seems like the first post is not being hidden, and since it's still the firstpostid, would be still be using the showeventsbit template over the regular postbit.

Okay, I found the hook and it's active. I tried rolling back the software in my test forum and it still shows double.

Looking at the content now.

Update: it's definitely getting in that inner condition that does: $this->templatename = '';
Update 2: somehow, Display Event Details on Thread Page/showthread_complete got turned on, while the event attendance/event forum integration actually turns it off. So I'm not sure how I messed it up, but it seems fine now.

thincom2000, thanks for getting me started on this.

thincom2000

You had two copies of the showthread_complete plugin? I thought the integration removes the original too, but I'm glad you solved it.

I love this hack and it works perfectly.

However can i set the date different in the forum message events and upcoming events ? Im from the UK and we use dd/mm/yy instead of mm/dd/yy and its causing some users confusion. Better still would be to use real dates say 23 March 2007 etc

Also is there a way to clean up the upcoming events block. We likely have 10 or so events in a day and it looks messy all being on the one line.

Any help on either of these appreciated.

Does anyone know if I could incorporate this hack with the form hack here:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=126676

Instead of people being able to post whatever they wanted in the new event, I'd like to use a form instead so every event is uniform and allows people to search for certain characteristics within an event.

I noticed this also. To get around it, I ended up re-coding & hardcoding a number of the plugins. Now my showthread queries are 14. I still need to work on forumdisplay which is still about 7 queries above normal (right now 24 as opposed to 17).

Awesome, after i disable this and the related mod, i end up have 14 queries. It seems they call lot of duplicate rsvp plugin,

I think the author need to optimize his code.

It's only limited by the number of calendars you have configured. :)

And if you want another Event Forum, just make another calendar.

So, how about sharing those plugin fixes with us?? I checked and the RSVP page was at 49 queries. :(


Edit:Also, any chance this hack can be integrated with the Thread Prefixes hack?? My life would be complete.

dotJoel
03-18-2007, 01:10 AM
@TheMilkCarton: I too use the thread Prefixes. A way around this is to make a custom field, and reorder the field setups in the VB Options - Events.

I make the new event in the sub-forums, and the thread is made in the main forum. I want each sub-forum to feed into the same calendar. However it doesn't.

Any advice / help appreciated.

EDIT: Alright I understand what's going on, just need help on how to fix it!

I have setup in the VB Options - Event Options:

2:21
2:22

Any time "New Event" is clicked in forums 22 and 23 the topic for the event is moved into forum 21.

I didn't understand any of that... You don't even have Thread Prefixes installed on that forum you linked to... I think you're talking about something else??

Anyway... what I was referring to is the ability to select a Thread Prefix when clicking the New Event button and posting an event. Currently, you have to post the calendar event, go into the event forum, edit the thread, and then select a thread prefix to get it to show up on your forum. If you were able to select the prefix before you posted the event, life would be much easier. :)

I had been using Farcaster's event attendance 1.2.0, but after installing this mod, was unable to see the event title in the calendar, nor was I able to respond to the rsvp function in Farcaster's event attendance hack. Well, then I found Farcaster's Event Attendance & vB Event Forums Integration addon:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=133970

Now everything works like a charm! I can post events from my calendar, and it takes me to the events forum. Or I can post a New Event from within my forum and it automatically adds the info to the calendar. I can also RSVP so that an event attendance roster is created! AWESOME! It all works like a charm. Thank you!

This SAME issue kept me confused for some-time as well.:confused: I had three different event forums linked to just one calendar and the exact same thing was occuring to me. Whether I posted a New Event in the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Event Forum it ALWAYS landed in the 1st Event Forum. :mad:

In my case I could figure no way to 'fix' it, so I finally opted instead to have ONE Event forum linked to just ONE calendar and rearrange my forum topics a bit.

In a future release though, it would be :Dnice:D if there was a way to have several forums linked to just one calendar, but when an event was posted it (correctly) went into the forum it was intended for.(vs. auto-defaulting into the first forum that was created)

Some users had complained about the insane number of queries this adds to showthread. I had mentioned that I developed a fix for this, but still haven't posted it. If anyone still needs to get their queries back to normal, let me know.

You will first need the hack I just released (sorry but it needs file edits if you don't want ANY extra queries): CES Pre-Process Hooks. I also made a few database changes to make some of the plugin code a little simpler. I will try to remember what they were. Will post the fix tomorrow.

Sounds interesting. Not sure if the author has anyway around this to fix the extra queries call issues.

I still have not upgraded to 3.6.5 since I wait for the next release where they have several very nice features.

03-27-2007, 11:48 PM
Anybody know a way to get the Thread Prefixes hack working with this one? I'd really like to be able to choose a prefix when creating a new event. Currently, you need to create an event, and then edit the thread it creates to add the prefix. :(

thincom2000
03-30-2007, 02:39 AM
Since I upgraded to 3.6.5 it doesn't save the right userid when posting a new event. Sorry guys but until I figure this out I won't be releasing my addon for this as it hasn't been tested on a working Event Forum.

If anyone knows how to fix Event Forums so it saves the userid and username to the database (looked and those fields in the tables thread and post are empty), let me know. I reinstalled the product 3 times to no avail and tried also tried tweaking eventdata_presave but that had no effect.

EDIT: Looks like when upgrading to vBulletin 3.6.5, I accidentally added another user to my database in the AdminCP by "Add New User." With all blank fields. Somehow this only affected the Event Forums by making everyone's user info change to the blank user's when posting a new event thread.

I've just installed this. I had an event which I edited to tick the RSVP allowed option (another plugin) but when I pressed save I got...

Fatal error: Only variables can be passed by reference in /vbb/includes/class_dm_event.php(569) : eval()'d code on line 41

When going back into the events forum or calendar the edited event is now gone. :(

I disabled the other plugin and it still happened, I then disabled this plugin and re-enabled the other one and the problem went away.

Sorry for the delay releasing my addon for this. I've been really busy with work these past few weeks and the addon ended up being a lot bigger than I originally planned, thus there's still a little more debugging to do.

Great mod, but I just have two small issues:

1. If I set a custom field to not be required, it isn't showing up at all. If I set it to required, it becomes visible, but it disappears as soon as I set required = no. Am I the only one seeing this? I trawled through the thread and couldn't see something similiar reported.

2. I have a lot of events that end at 23:00 or 23:30. Due to daylight savings these end up spanning two days on the calendar. Is it possible to default the "Ignore DST" checkbox to on? At present it default to off, and I doubt users really understand what it is.

Thanks in advance for any help!

That looks okay except that it is not showing the event details which is screwing everything else up. Check your settings for the Event Forums hack. You may need to make the showthread template edit.

there are no deatils on there to show (i did a test thread), it seems to push the side navigation out of the way, whereas normal threads dont. I want to know how i can fix it.

I know but I am saying that to get around that you need to make the showthread template edit instead, since plugins are stacking onto your navbar in the wrong order.

When this is set to Yes you will need to use the variable $lv_vb_eventforums_eventdetails to display the Event Details block in the SHOWTHREAD template.

When this is set to No the Event Details block is inserted at the end of $navbits variable.

If you are running the default style, you can most likely leave this off. If you have heavily customised the SHOWTHREAD template, and/or the Event Details arn't showing properly, you will need to use this.

BUG / PROBLEM!

Alright I am using this mod and have encountered an issue. I create a new event, then if you use the quick-reply to post a reply to the event it gives an error message that you have not entered enough characters.

Any ideas ?

If you are talking about RSVP signups from my modification, that is not a bug, that is by design. Whenever you make any modification to the date range, all RSVPs are removed.

Hi everyone, I have been using this hack since it came out and have never had problems.

I am running vB3.6.4

My host just moved our domain from a server running mysql 4.xx to a server running mysql 5.xx, and now this product causes database error galore.

If I turn this product off, the site is normal.

Can anyone suggest what I can do to make this run again under the mysql 5 db?

edit:

just noticed that my php version changed also from 4.4.6 to PHP Version 5.1.6

It was installed and already working great, before our host moved us to a new server that used php5/mysql5

no code was altered or changed by me after the move. The mod, just caused db errors after errors.

I even deleted it, completely removed it, and re-installed it.

Same problems.


The good news is, my partner and I just got ourselves a nice quad cpu xeon dedicated server, that has php4 and mysql 4 on it.

after the move of the vB forums and db to the server, I will re-install this wonderfull hack.

Had the same problem with the first reply to an event. I immediately tried it again and the Quick Reply worked fine the second try. Quick Reply also worked for another account (usergroup 2), but it was the 2nd or 3rd reply.

Installed on 3.6.5, going to upgrade to 3.6.7 next couple of days...I have a couple of "how do I"s:

A) I want to have the events threads post as locked -- the purpose of this thread for me is to have a thread tied to an event which is used AFTER and ONLY after the event for discussion of it. I did see an idea for some kind of timed forum move...we could do that, although it would be annoying to have yet another forum, if anyone knows how could they post? Either of these solutions would be fine really.

B) I am using an event attendance mod, WoW one, and I don't necessarily need...integration as much as I need them to not conflict. How can I set it so that clicking on the event does not forward to the thread? Integration would be nice, forwarding to the related thread, or putting signups at the top of the thread, that would be really awesome, but I would settle for just having prior functionality + automatic thread creation at this point.

Thanks to anyone who can help!

BadgerDog
07-06-2007, 02:43 PM
There's a setting for this:

Show the New Event button on the thread list.
Setting this to no will change the New Thread button to forward the user to the add event form.

Setting this to yes will add a New Event button, ONLY if you have also added the necessary template modification in FORUMDISPLAY. See the installation instructions for more information.

Is it set to yes?

So, by activating the New Event button, the old "New Topic" reverts to permitting people to create new "regular" threads in this forum?

With the New Event button not activated, the "New Topic" button changes its behavior and onlt permits new events to be created, which get mirrored in the on-line Calendar?

Also, any idea why the New Event button provided, doesn't match and blend in with the skin we're using? It appears as the standard vBulletin default colors?

Thanks for your feedback.... :)

Badger

Has anybody worked out a way yet to add an extra Profile field to the RSVP list.

At the moment the RSVP 'Yes', 'Maybe' or 'No' list shows the site members Usernames.
This is GREAT but alongside that I also really need to show some specific information about that user which is held in an extra profile field which they fill when they register or at any later point from within their Edit Profile page.

I.e.

RSVP - YES

Daniel - Green Party
Mike - Red Party
Steve - Green Party
Sarah- Yellow Party

Now, what I have been doing is getting the members to add this extra info in the note box you can add when RSVP'ing but its not ideal and people forget. I would really love to add theinformation automatically adjacent to the username.

I am willing to pay for this..

Ive got this mod intergrated with the Event Forums Mod. One question though! At present all events listed via the calendar create a thread in "Upcoming Events" section of my forum. I then manually move them to "July Events", "August Events" "September Events" and so on.

When the threads are in the "Upcoming Events" section, it shows the event attendance where people can say wheter they will be attending. Once I have moved the threads into July, August, the event attendance dissapears!

Any idea how I can keep it on the bottom?

Great mod! It's crucial to my site!

I'm using it with several custom fields, and don't see why they're not searchable (previous post). They get put into an array in the "event" table, and show up as
a:4:{i:1;s:4:"6.20";i:2;s:1:"4";i:3;s:3:"Yes";i:4;...

So why can't I access them through an array query? My SQL is so rusty it leaks, but I remember being able to access members of an array... maybe turn it into a string then search the string?

Also, is there an easy way to add a custom field to the replies in the thread in just the calendar threads?

Thanks so much!

ragtek, I found your solution of put "global $vbulletin in the plugin code"

I'm no stranger to hacking the code, I'm just not sure where in the plugin code to put that.

If you could just tell me where to put it, I would really appreciate it.

That seems to have fixed the issue.

Mirzonni, if "location" is the only custom field you are going to have for your calendar, you could very easily accomplish this by adding a custom field to the calendar and then going into the Event Forums options and changing the "Thread Title Format" option to be something like:

%title [%datetime]<br />%custom

I haven't tried it, but give it a shot and see how it displays for you.

I have problem with anonymous user, I have setting permissions but when a anonymous user sending a post I obtain 2 error:
1. Your username can not be shorter than 3 characters.
2. The string you entered for the image verification did not match what was displayed.
For number 2, I have resolved it with setting off "Guest Post Image Verification" on admin pannel.

Is there a way of changing the format event title to exclude the time?

The default format is %title%custom: %datetime however all I want to appear in the title is the %title and the date, without the time? I don't have any custom fields.

I just find the title's can be huge and difficult to read at first glance, for example: My reoccuring event at the local pub on the corner: 20 Aug 07 07:30 PM - 20 Aug 10 11:00 PM

Hi,

Got this installed and its working okay except one thing, when I create a thread in this forum it puts a date at the end of thread title for example:

thread title: 01/01/1970

when you go into the thread you just see:

thread title

also how can you sort this out by the date of the event, and not by date of the posting, it seems to be chaotic to not be able to do this?

Any help would be appreciated

While this is a kick ass MOD and has really spurred activity in my community, I am having some issues with duplicates. For example, a member will post an event 3 months ahead of when it is actually scheduled to occur. In the meantime, other members are posting other events - so eventually the event is pushed to another page. Once it is off that page, many people do not see it - so many times, someone else posts the same event - thus having 2 threads for the same event.

What would fix this problem? The ability to sort the event forum by the Event's Date. Is this possible?

While this may not solve the problem completely for me, I think it would cut down on the occurrences of dupes.

Here is an example of my setup:

Hi,

It has already been done by Crazy Serb, and I have sent him a PM asking if he would share this, as it really is essential, if you look at his website in his profile you can see what he has done.

Craig

nobody? no answer, no help? tsk...

never mind... I hacked the code myself.

now I have it adding the date of the event (in a format customized differently from $datetime var in vb settings) and sorting the events by date instead of alphabetically or any other way... ;)

i guess you can't get anything done around here until you do it yourself.

Crazy Serb
10-10-2007, 04:53 PM
I just took the code from a previous version of this addon, and incorporated it in this current one... just changed this in the eventdata_presave hook:


/* ORIGINAL CODE
$lv_vb_eventforums_threadtitle = $this->fetch_field('title');
ORIGINAL CODE */

/* NEW CODE */
$dateformat = "[m.d] l, M. jS";
$lv_vb_eventforums_threadtitle = vbdate($dateformat, $this->fetch_field('dateline_from'),false,true,false,true ) . " // " . $this->fetch_field('title');


and then I just installed "Default Sort Field/Order for Forumdisplay" that allows me to set up the default sort in that event forum by Title instead of whatever else is set by default.


now, what I am curious about is, is there any way to add an option to this mod where all the expired events (check the expiry date of the event in calendar) would be moved to a specified forum every time a cron (to be set up by script) is run?

that would save me the hassle of moving all the expired events to another forum and archiving them in there manually...

Can this function in a "regular" forum, or do events need a forum of their own.

I currently have many events being listed in my main forum, I'd like them to stay listed there, but I'd like them to be attached to the calendar. Will that be possible with this mod?

thanks

Hey thanks Crazy Serb works fine almost, shame you can't auto move the threads once an event has passed, maybe at some point someone may actually do work on this hack to tie everything to make this work the way it should work? It just appears that 90% of the job has been done, but the remaining 10% is yet to be finished, its shame!

I am a little confused on the title settings. I know I can remove parts of the title that is automatically generated by editing the thread data section in vB options. But isn;t it supposed to show the month?
On my install it does not show a month for some reason.

It would be nice to be able to make the date a time a simpler format as well. It generates quite a long thread topic as it stands now.

But as far as I can see it, nobody's touched this mod in months...

If you edit the forum one it will modify the albums. But if you delete an event the album will only be deleted if there are 0 pictures attached to it. Along with a few other goodies of course!

I will be adding a link to wordpress as well so when an event gets posted it will create a news article for the event. It will place it in the admin or a user of your choices draft section as kinda a reminder to finish it off. It will transfer the title, description, date etc and can transfer how many people went whatever you would like.

I've installed this mod and it works great but now I'm editting the basic vBulletin Calendar to improve this mods intergration with my board and its intended use.

Although users do set a date range for 'Ranged Events' how can I turn OFF the default to set a time for a 'Ranged Event'?

If you don't set a time for a Ranged Event it brings up the following error:
Incorrect time chosen. Make sure that a valid from time and to time is set. Make sure to either choose a pre-defined time or set your own.

Now what I've done to my calendar so far is take out the options for a reccuring event by editing the CALENDER, calendar_yearly, calendar_monthly and calendar_weekly templates.

So now I want to take out the time settings from the 'calendar_edit' template. This I've been able to do however when somebody tries to enter a 'Ranged Event' without the 'Times' specified they get the above error.

Anybody help.... surely this is something simple???? :up:

The RSVP feature is done using Farcaster's Event Attendance, and the bridge hack that enables these two to work with each other.

I can't get these two hacks to work together. The vbadvanced module does not work on events created by this hack. Once I turn this hack off the vbadvanced module works fine. :(

I have this problem as well. Despite all settings and permissions being correct, Calenders with Event Forums mapped will not show up either in forumhome, or on the vba standalone upcoming events module. If they show up on the forumhome, then they will show up on Upcoming events module.

This sucks, as it basically renders Event Forums pointless to me now :mad: I'm going over all my Calenders to make sure they have the correct permissions and settings, and the module itself is set to display events from all Calenders or events from one Calender from the next 30 days. Anyone have any idea on how to fix this? It's almost deal breaking for me. I'm using 3.6.8 PL 2

After reading a post in this thread: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=1430715#post1430715 it seems event forums doesn't cache events to the datastore.

And to be honest, the whole shebang apparently needs to be recoded :( I wish I had the time or the skill. I can offer donations to anyone willing to wack this whole project - Event Forums+Event Attendance+Cut down on queries.

Or even just making the upcoming events function work :(

UPDATE - RE: Events not showing on Upcoming Events.

After fiddling around with it, I found that disabling the dynamic event titles (e.g. showing date & time, and custom fields) meant that events in Event Forums showed up on the Upcoming Events on forumhome and the vba modules. To disable this, simpley remove the %datetime and %custom type variables from the relevant option in the Event Forums administration. Hope this tip helps someone.

hello, I just found this mod.

reading the list below, I'm still not clear exactly how this works.

After this mod is installed, I need only to create a new event in my VB Calendar. Then there will be a new thread automatically created in my new Events forum area?



When a new event is created in a calendar, an associated thread is created in the linked forum.
Links to events in the calendar are forwarded to the associated thread, or optionally a seperate New Event button can be added with a minor template edit.
New thread links in the event forum are redirected to a new event form.
Editing a thread or event, will update its associated event/thread.

As long as you have mapped a calendar ID to a forum ID in the options, yes.

New thread links in the event forum are redirected to a new event form.

Well, essentially it merges the associated thread and the Calendar event. Yes, 'new thread' now makes an event in those forums instead

This is what the thread/calendar event looks like: http://athanatoi.quillsabroad.com/forums/showthread.php?t=236

You can't view the separate calendar event, or the thread separately.

It seems to be working ok - when an event is added to the calendar it also appears listed in the forum as it should - but when a user clicks on the thread subject in the forum, the thread opens and occupies the full width of the web page underneath the menu bar/bread crumb area instead of in the center column. The rest of the site appears as normal underneath it.

I have attached an image – any ideas as to what I have done wrong?

Also is there a way of allowing new threads in the forum appear in the calendar but not have calendar entries in the forum? I tried permission settings but that doesn't seem to make any difference

None at all, you could try asking over at vbadvanced? I use vba myself, but I don't use forum integration.

I don't know about moving it to a forum that is not associated with a calendar, but if you move an event from

'event forum A (calender A)' to 'Event forum B', the event will move to Calendar B.

I imagine that moving an event to a non-event forum would either leave the event without a thread, or remove the event all together and leave just the thread.

Also, Id like to move the Todays Events table to the top of the page rather than the bottom. What is involved in this? How is it done?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.


I think all that is involved is some template edits. Reading through this thread might reveal some, or doing an extensive search of the graphics forum (in the main discussion area) or the 3.6 templates mod. I don't have time to search for ya right now though.

possible? or already available?

Hi Guys,

I have tested this using VB 3.7 Beta 6 just now. Install went ahead perfectly. After you have installed it and setup the plugin remember you need at least 1 Event for it to show. So before you think it isn't working make sure you create at least 1 event.

It is a real shame that the Author isn't still developing this, however thankyou for creating what would be one of the best mods for VB still to this day.
We are looking at paying someone to pickup development and make some modifications to it.

And a HUGE thank you to thincom2000 for his efforts in helping out where he could in this modification.

Regards,

.Joel

quick question... has anyone ever been able to get two forums to correspond to just one calendar?

*edit*

never mind. totally works.

I would love it if there was a way to allow users to choose what event type they want instead of having it default to the same type on every calendar. We heavily rely on our calendars and it would be nice to have just a bit more flexibility with choosing event type. Right now, we have the default set to "Ranged Events", but some events are recurring, so it would be nice if we could choose that option for those events only.

I know this has been asked before, so maybe it's worth updating the mod with this ability?

You could send them to add events from the calendar rather than the forum? (I mean just a short term fix)

Also, I dunno which mod it is, but either event forums, event attendance...seem to prevent reoccuring events. Need to debug that.

jpapadpapa

I could do that for single, all-day events, but like you said, the recurring events does not seem to be working and that is what I am really interested in. Also, I need this process to be as simple as possible because I will have a lot of newbies on my board who are not tech-savvy in the least bit.

Just poking.

I'm very interested in optimised versions of this & Farcaster's Event Attendance. It may be another mod adding to load (starting debugging tonight when I get home from work) but viewing an event forum caused aroun 78 queries. As opposed to all of 11 on the forumhome.

No you're correct in assuming the queries come from this mod. I'm just about ready to release my optimized combination of the mods.

Hey, getting this message

RSVP'd Yes: 6 (5 members and 1 guests and [ARG:3 UNDEFINED] spiders)

So, yes, it's because I installed a hack to list spiders, but it seems strange they would use the same phrase as the whose online. Anyway, I can remove everything after the 6, knowing if it's a person who said yes or their guest is irrelevant to me, so if you or someone can point me to where this is... I could try removing it. :)

Fantastic :) I look forward to testing it out on my test board. Will it be 3.6.8 compatible, or optimised for 3.7 ? (I don't mind either, I think these 2 mods were the reason I'm stuck on 3.6.8, if I recall correctly)

Great mod.
I have downloaded the file but have a question.

I currently have an EVENTS forum. I create threads there and create a calendar entry.

Once I execute this mod, will the threads I currently have in my EVENTS forum be lost or will new calendar entries be added as new threads?

Thanks!

I have installed this on my site and have it set so all my regional sections will have the event option. However, when people try to post an event, besides in the southern california section (i.e. midwest...) the event defaults back to southern california. is there a way to fix this?
here's the link to the regional forums..
http://www.wiredonhonda.com/vb/forumdisplay.php?f=4

The "summary" is showing up on all 4 of the regional forum sections, but the event itself only gets posted in the southern california section. Please help!

thanks

I was having the same issue ... I had to create different calendars for each forum. I really wanted one master calendar and regional forums that separate the events by region but I cant seem to get that to work.

Is there any way we can have one master calendar and have the posts broke up in different forums say for example based on region?

Is it possible to have the event threads creates in a pre-existing forum that is used for other posts as well?

I don't want a seperate events forum, I want the event threads to be included in my main discussion forum.

I updated to vB 3.7.0 Gold and this hack causes the following error msg.

Fatal error: Cannot run code from this file in conjunction with non encoded files in /home/*********/public_html/forum/includes/searchwords.php on line 653

Can we please get this hack updated to work on vB 3.7.0 Gold.

This and Autodate both cause the same error msg. the 3rd. hack that was giving me this problem was fixed by adding code about a security token. could this be the answer to these errors?

Evercraft hasn't been on vb.org for a good 8 months now. I think thincom2000 was considering releasing a better version of this after 3.7 went gold, but I don't know how much work he has done on that.

Either way, gold has only been out for 2 days and both this and farcaster's event attendance are only sporadically maintained, so please give the developers (and potential developers) time to pick this up before demanding updates.

You may want to reinstall as that's a mighty odd error (and doesn't seem to have anything to do with the security token change). I've got this running on 3.7.0 gold with no issues...

re installed and same issue.

And it is not caused by any other hack. as I have been running the same setup for over 2 years from vB 3.5 till now. I would say it is caused by a change from vB 3.6.8p2 to 3.7.x

I really need these two hacks fixed as they are both integral to the board.

Do you also have the Event Attendance & vb Event Forums Integration installed? https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=133970&page=7 If so are you having any issues? I am reading where there are the security token issues so I haven't tried it yet. I did install the Event Attendace for the calendar and no problems at all.
