Introduction
This is a continuation of my Event Forums plugin/addon from 3.5. You can find the old version here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=102213). The original plugin was developed by Endquote, and I have since taken it over to bring it to what it is today. I hope you can find it useful! :)
What is this addon?
This is a plugin which allows you to create relationships between calendars and events, giving each event a thread of its own for users to discuss. I have tested this alot, and I am running it myself on a live board.
Sure, so whats it do?
Some examples of the features this plugin offers
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. A summary can be shown at the top of the event forum which shows the up and coming events over the next 'x' days. The date and time shown in the thread and post title, is calculated on the current viewing users timezone. In other words, times always show in the users timezone, not forced to GMT. Full moderation support. Editing a thread or event, will update its associated event/thread.

How do I install it?
For upgrading, please see the section below.
Summary
1 xml import. 1 (optional) template change. 1 (optional) gif file upload.
Step 1
Install the product
Download the product XML file.

Goto your Admin CP at your forums, then goto Plugin System -> Manage Products. Click [Add/Import Product] at the bottom of the page. Browse to the location where you downloaded the xml file and then click the Import button.
Step 2
Calendar ID:
Goto your Admin CP at your forums, then goto Calendar Manager. Find the calendar you want to link to a forum, then click Edit.
Right at the top of the page you should see:
Calendar: NAME (id: ID)
Make a note of the ID, you will need this soon.
Forum ID:
Goto your Admin CP at your forums, then goto Forum Manager. Find the forum you want to activate as your event forum, then click Edit Forum.
Right at the top of the page you should see:
Forum: NAME (id: ID)
Make a note of the ID, you will need this soon.
Link a Calendar to a Forum:
Goto your Admin CP at your forums, then goto vBulletin Options and find Event Forums.
The first option you should see is Calendar/Forum Map.
Enter in your IDs into the box, as CALENDARID:FORUMID.
Example, my Calendar is 5 and my Forum is 14:
5:14
Click Save.
Step 3
Base permissions check:
You will need to check that users using the Event Forums, have basic permissions to both the Linked Forum AND Calendar.
Basic Permissions include: Can View Forum and Can Post Threads and possibly some others.

Step 4 (Optional template edit)
Add the New Event button:
You only need todo this if you want to show a seperate New Event button next to the New Thread button.

First of all, upload newevent.gif to your images/buttons folder. NOTE you will need to upload this to any custom image folders too for different styles you might have.

Second, open up FORUMDISPLAY template for each of your styles you want to show the button, find and add the highlighted code below:
<td class="smallfont"><if condition="$show['newthreadlink']">
<a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newthread&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" /></a>
<if condition="$show['neweventlink']">&nbsp;<a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newevent&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newevent.gif" alt="$vbphrase[lv_vb_eventforums_phrase_post_new_event]" border="0" /></a></if>
<else />&nbsp;</if></td>

Lastly, go into the Event Forums options, and change the option Show the New Event button on the thread list to yes.


Step 5
Install on VB.org:
Browse back to this thread, and click the INSTALL (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/vborg_miscactions.php?do=installhack&threadid=123416) button so you can recieve updates whenever I update this plugin.
How do I upgrade it from an old version?
Step 1
Import xml
Download the product XML file.

Goto your Admin CP at your forums, then goto Plugin System -> Manage Products. Click [Add/Import Product] at the bottom of the page. Browse to the location where you downloaded the xml file. Make sure the overwrite option is set to ON and then click the Import button.
Can I give you money to make this?
This isn't a commercial plugin, and can be used by anyone for free. However, a few people have said to me that they would like to donate some money for my time working on the plugin and for picking it up and continuing the development of new features etc. If you do want to donate some money my way, then you can do so through paypal by clicking this link (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=ryuno_yaiba%40hotmail%2ecom&item_name=vB%20Event%20forums&no_shipping=1&cn=Comments&tax=0&currency_code=GBP&bn=PP%2dDonationsBF&charset=UTF%2d8). Thanks!
Bugs / Support
If you find a bug, then please post in this thread and let me know. There are a few bugs that haven't been fixed since the old version, so i'm hoping that we can fix these soon. I will do my best to support the plugin as much as possible, however I also have a busy job which takes up alot of my time.
Known Bugs
Here is a list of known bugs to date
Soft delete actually hard deletes the thread. Search doesn't search the first post of an event thread. Inline ajax edit bugs thread title. Need to remove date and time from it before edit.
Feature request list
Here is a list of the requested features. Please note that because it makes this list, doesn't mean it will be added.
Intergration with the event attendance plugin. Customisation of the order of the custom fields in the thread title. An option to "import" all the previous events from a Calendar into threads. Extra post options support (Attachments, Post Icons, Sticky etc). Custom ordering of the %datetime variable. Custom ordering of %custom variable. Better handling of recurring events.
Credits
Thanks to endquote (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/member.php?u=5060) for originally creating the plugin.
Thanks to the Ninja :ninja: for helping me infiltrate the vb code and finding those hidden hooks!
Thanks to anybody that helps test this plugin.
Changelog
Version: 3.3
Added Farcasters Event Attendance patch to the mod. I've added a self check so it will only run when the Event attendance mod is installed and active.
Version: 3.2
Fixed a bug which was prevent the thread from being deleted when you try to delete an event.
Version: 3.1
Fixed a bug which would cause an error with undefined function on the forum display page when summary is turned on.
Version: 3.0
Version now compatible with 3.6. Please note this plugin will no longer install on a board older than 3.6. I would recommend you upgrade your board as soon as you can!
Added an optional template edit to show a New Event button next to the New Thread button. Plugin no longer in BETA. I feel this has been running enough stablely to take this out of BETA. There are still some bugs which need fixing, but as a whole it works and is used by quite a few people.
Version: 2.7 and below
See the old thread here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=102213)

is there a simple way to include the "Upcoming Events for the Next X Day(s)" chunk into different places on your board?

I would like to put that piece on the front page of my board. I'm doing it manually right now but would like to be able to use that piece that is integrated into the linked forum. thanks!

"New thread links in the event forum are redirected to a new event form"
is not also working and new thread link let me start a new thread in forum. Starting event from calendar works ok.

P.S. OOOOOOOOOPS, this was my mistake!!!! Please ignore this ;)

Same problem as other posters

Going to the forum setup for events, doesn't show the "New event" button
Clicking new thread, creates a new thread, not a calendar entry.,
Having "summary" turned on, gives me the same error.

Is the option for Show the New Event button on the thread list. set to NO?

I can't reproduce this problem myself on my live site or my test board.

Also make sure your calendar:forum ids are set correctly.

To add the new event button you have to make a small template change, did you do this? (see step 4 of installation instructions to find out how)

Many thanks for a great hack.

Very awesome, thanks for updating this mod!

Ditangquan, how are you manually placing that in other places? Being able to display the upcoming events in a weekly or even monthly calendar format somewhere on the main page would be awesome.

When my board was running phpbb there was a great mod called CalPro
CalPro: http://www.snailsource.com/calpro/index.html
demo: http://www.snailsource.com/forum/cal_view_month.php

Basically did the same thing event forum does, but it also added a calendar header to the board that you could customize. Really great mod for anyone running phpbb.

Thanks again for keeping this up to date!

I don't think there is a simple way, that I can think of anyway.

if you enable "Display Calendar Events?" under Forums Home Page Options it'll show it at the bottom of the Home Page....i'm working on moving that up, probably a customize template thing.

edit: i was able to move it to another location:

what i did was remove the following code from FORUMHOME and put it in another location...it seems to work fine with the enabled item above ^^^ You can see it on my site at PaintballArizona.com (http://www.pbaz.com/forums/index.php) if you'd like, its above the shoutbox.

(i modified the <tbody> to have a <table></table>

<if condition="$show['upcomingevents']">
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="thead" colspan="2">
<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_events')"><img id="collapseimg_forumhome_events" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_thead$vbcollapse[collapseimg_forumhome_events].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
<if condition="$show['todaysevents']">$vbphrase[todays_events]<else /><phrase 1="$vboptions[showevents]">$vbphrase[upcoming_events_for_the_next_x_days]</phrase></if>

I am running 3.6.0 Gold, I have downloaded and installed this hack.

It does work as stated...except for one aspect I am having issues with.

I click on "New Thread", it takes me to create a clendar event, I enter in the info, click "save" and it does what it should with no problems. I go into the new thread that it created and click "Post Reply" I enter in a post and click "submit" when I do that I get the error below

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.0:

While I am on this error page I click "refresh" for IE, then it says "This post is a duplicate of a post that you have posted in the last five minutes. You will be redirected to thread." then I get redirected to the thread and my reply post to the thread is there (1st post), I can make other post with no errors whatso ever...as long as I ONLY click "post reply" button...if I use the quick reply box and click "submit" it says "Quick Reply" The following errors occurred when this message was submitted Okay""

when I click the "Okay" all it does is go back to the normal quick reply box.

Any ideas????

I have a request
Basically I have 2 forums I want to integrate in to 2 seperate calendars
One is an event calendar, the 2nd is a online radio show calendar
I dont want ANY custom field info put in the topic title on the 2nd calendar, but want it to remain for the 1st one that is integrated.

Any possible way?

This isn't currently possible.

What needs to be done for this (by the plugin) is allow you to set options per forum. I have looked at this, and it is possible, however I have been testing adding bitfields (you upload an xml file) and encountered many problems when upgrading to 3.6 with the bitfields active, so I need todo a bit more research into it first.

In short its needed, but it isn't going to happen soon sorry.

This is a strange one.

Do you have any other plugins installed?
Does it do every time you make a new event and try to reply?
Does it do it for every reply or just the first?

I will try and have a look at what post reply is doing to see if I can work out what might have gone wrong.

Sorry-so-stupid, but I have a question about the FORUMDISPLAY edit. Your instructions say...

<td class="smallfont"><if condition="$show['newthreadlink']">
<a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newthread&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" /></a>

Now understand I've never done a TEMPLATE Edit yet, so bare with me. In looking for that string, I found it alright and put the new code right after it. However, I went on looking thru the code to MAKE SURE I'd found the right spot and low & behold I found the same code again, on down in the text.

So, my question is: Are you suppose to find ALL occurrences of the above code and insert the new code right after it? If so, I think I can do that. If not, how do you know which occurrence to put it after?

Many thanxx for any assistance.

One of my other coders figured out the problem. It was the problem with the "Prevent Double Post" hack.

No issues with the Event Forums anymore.

This is great. Installed.

I do have one request. Perhaps you can tell me how...

I would really prefer NOT to show the New Event button to users who are not authorized to the calendar in that forum. Plus if it's there and you can't do it because you aren't authorized, I believe google has an issue with it.

I had the WIC and Recent events working at the top of my forum, but the events list didn't have the times, which I need.

So in Display Chatters template, I have this, which just shows chatters on the forum Home page, along with recent events:

<!-- who is in flashchat -->
<if condition="$show['upcomingevents']">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

<if condition="$show['todaysevents']">$vbphrase[todays_events]<else /><phrase 1="$vboptions[showevents]">$vbphrase[upcoming_events_for_the_next_x_days]</phrase></if>
</td>
</tr>

<td class="alt2"><a href="calendar.php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/calendar.gif" alt="$vbphrase[calendar]" border="0" /></a></td>
<td class="alt1" width="100%"><div class="smallfont">$upcomingevents</div></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<br />
</if>
<!-- end who is in flashchat -->

HOWEVER, I want the times to display, like in your version when you are in the proper forum.

When I'm IN THE FORUM, the times display at the top, and then also that block repeats in the forum. I can resolve that, but I need the times on the forum home page.

You can see what I'm talking about here: http://www.guineapigcages.com/forum/index.php and then go to this forum: http://www.guineapigcages.com/forum/cavy-chats/

Please help me out?
Thanks,

Many thanxx for any assistance.

Add it to them all, though I think the first instance is all thats needed.

I will update the install instructions shortly.

This is great. Installed.

I do have one request. Perhaps you can tell me how...

I would really prefer NOT to show the New Event button to users who are not authorized to the calendar in that forum. Plus if it's there and you can't do it because you aren't authorized, I believe google has an issue with it.

I don't know why Google would have a problem with it, but anyhow it shouldn't be too hard to add this is in so I will try and put it in soon.

The button would atually the moment be hidden if the user isn't allowed to create a new thread, which I might need to change too.

I had the WIC and Recent events working at the top of my forum, but the events list didn't have the times, which I need.

So in Display Chatters template, I have this, which just shows chatters on the forum Home page, along with recent events:

{code snippet}

HOWEVER, I want the times to display, like in your version when you are in the proper forum.

When I'm IN THE FORUM, the times display at the top, and then also that block repeats in the forum. I can resolve that, but I need the times on the forum home page.

You can see what I'm talking about here: http://www.guineapigcages.com/forum/index.php and then go to this forum: http://www.guineapigcages.com/forum/cavy-chats/

Please help me out?
Thanks,
Teresa

Not sure if i'm just being blind, but I don't see any events block on your forum home page.

If I klick on report bad post, I?m receiving the following message:

In the hook "postdata_postsave" must be the mistake.
Could you check this?

Thanks

I'll have a look at this soon as I can.

And as for Event attendance. It IS something I want, and would find useful for my own site. However I am not currently working on it, because I just simply don't have the time to put into it at the moment :(

Would this plug-in solve these requests:

subscribe to calendar (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=82195)

calendar events notification / email (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=93677)

by allowing users to subscribe to the synched event forum?

As of now I have to manually link my polls to my event-forum. It's not a huge deal, but it would be nice if something did this through the admin or forum instaed. Does anyone know about a program that does this or does anyone know how to make one?

If someone doesn't know what I'm talking about and would like to see what i mean, feel free to check out my polled event-forum (http://virginiareia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4). Just type username:test & password: test. Just don't vote, please.

Thanks.

I installed this and it works great. I have our events split up by regions and so I set up a calendar per region and a forum per region and mapped the calendars to the forums.

Is there a way to make the default calendar show all events from all calendars?

I have a few quick questions ....

We'd like to use this hack on our parenting board for kids' birthdays. Is it possible to have the new threads post in an already established forum (which is a general forum and contains many other threads)? And is it possible to have the new threads post around midnight on the day of the event, and not several days in advance? And, most importantly, we already have *many* events (birthdays) already added to our calendar ... is there a way to edit these to include this hack, or would we have to re-add all the events?

Thanks in advance. :)

I have a problem
I want to reply automatic when a event is postet
i have this code:
if ($foruminfo['forumid'] == 34)
{
$postdm =& datamanager_init('Post', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY, 'threadpost');

$postdm->set_info('forum', $foruminfo);
$postdm->set_info('thread', $threadinfo);

$postdm->set('threadid', $threadinfo['threadid']);
$postdm->set('userid', 150);
$postdm->set('pagetext', 'Folge dem wei?en Wolf!
');
$postdm->set('allowsmilie', 1);
$postdm->set('visible', 1);
$postdm->set('dateline', TIMENOW);
$postdm->save();
}
hook: newthread_post_complete
it works great in all forums but not in the event forum!

I would donate too. I've been following this hack since... well, I cant remember, its perfect for my clubbing website with club info, etc. But cant use it because it lacks some options listed in the TODO list.

Its a pitty. Ill help with 50USD if necessary.

I have a small problem with this plugin. It works OK generally speaking and I have no web site errors, but it displays the events on the wrong day on my calendar. For example, I have an event from 7:00pm - 11:30pm tonight, but it displays on the calendar both today and tomorrow Sunday. My forums/users are EST if that matters. Any thoughts on this issue? You can view example events with this issue at WNYPoker.com under the Upcoming Events forum. You're looking for Ray's House.

Add it to them all, though I think the first instance is all thats needed.

I will update the install instructions shortly.

Alright after I'd done a few more edits with some other mods, I became brave enough to try this.

I found the code you refer to, twice in my FORUMDISPLAY header. (Btw, I'm using vbstyles ARIA skins.)

So I added it at both locations as you suggested, and saved the template.

Next, in admincp I set 'Show the New Event button on the thread list' to YES and saved the update.

Then I go into my event forum, but all I still see is the New Thread button.:surprised:

Finally, I went back and removed the code in the 2nd spot, but still no go.:confused:

Any ideas? Here's what my code is a present in the FORUMDISPLAY...

Hello,

I have a second issue. If you create a new event the associated thread gets created OK. But if the thread is moved from an "upcoming" to "recent" events forum, and the original event is edited in the calendar, a new thread gets created in the forum associated with the calendar. Shouldn't it only create a new thread when a event is created and not on edits too?

Would this plug-in solve these requests:

subscribe to calendar (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=82195)

calendar events notification / email (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=93677)

by allowing users to subscribe to the synched event forum?

no this mod doesnt have any of those features unfortunatly. Would be a nice addition though!

Evercraft

Sorry. Log in as Teresa, demo

Sorry this is quite delayed reply.

I think the events you were trying to show me had passed. Could you take a screenshot of the differences so I can see which times you mean?

I think its likely that it won't be possible to exactly mirror the events block in the forum. This is because I generate all of that myself. So I took the code they use to make the forumhome one, and added extra things to improve it.

The problem is, there is no hooks where i've added code, so it would be impossible to put something in there without editing a php file (which I won't support).

Evercraft

I installed this and it works great. I have our events split up by regions and so I set up a calendar per region and a forum per region and mapped the calendars to the forums.

Is there a way to make the default calendar show all events from all calendars?

I don't think there is. It might be possible to be made as a plugin todo it.

Evercraft

I have a few quick questions ....

We'd like to use this hack on our parenting board for kids' birthdays. Is it possible to have the new threads post in an already established forum (which is a general forum and contains many other threads)? And is it possible to have the new threads post around midnight on the day of the event, and not several days in advance? And, most importantly, we already have *many* events (birthdays) already added to our calendar ... is there a way to edit these to include this hack, or would we have to re-add all the events?

Thanks in advance. :)

The only way you could delay posting of events is by moderating events on the calendar, and then they won't appear until you approve them. There might then be a way to approve threads automatically using a cronjob or something, but i'm not sure how you'd go about making that work.

Unfortunatly you would have to re-add all the old events, which I know is quite a pain. On the feature request list is for a utility that you can run which scans a calendar's events and puts them in threads, but like all the other things I want todo time is a bit of an issue atm :(

Evercraft

I have a problem
I want to reply automatic when a event is postet
i have this code:
if ($foruminfo['forumid'] == 34)
{
$postdm =& datamanager_init('Post', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY, 'threadpost');

$postdm->set_info('forum', $foruminfo);
$postdm->set_info('thread', $threadinfo);

$postdm->set('threadid', $threadinfo['threadid']);
$postdm->set('userid', 150);
$postdm->set('pagetext', 'Folge dem wei?en Wolf!
');
$postdm->set('allowsmilie', 1);
$postdm->set('visible', 1);
$postdm->set('dateline', TIMENOW);
$postdm->save();
}
hook: newthread_post_complete
it works great in all forums but not in the event forum!
what must i change?

mmm I can't really see why this wouldn't work.

1 thing I could suggest trying, is changing the execution order of that plugin to 4, or 6. 4 will get run before my code, 6 after. 1 of them might work. :)

Evercraft
08-28-2006, 10:05 AM
I have a small problem with this plugin. It works OK generally speaking and I have no web site errors, but it displays the events on the wrong day on my calendar. For example, I have an event from 7:00pm - 11:30pm tonight, but it displays on the calendar both today and tomorrow Sunday. My forums/users are EST if that matters. Any thoughts on this issue? You can view example events with this issue at WNYPoker.com under the Upcoming Events forum. You're looking for Ray's House.

-Raymond

I think thats todo with a difference in timezones.

Say for example I posted an event in GMT timezone, at say 1am. Then in my control panel my user timezone is set to PST (or something behind GMT) then it would show up as the day before (cos it is rightly so for that timezone).

I'm pretty sure thats what your seeing there.

Evercraft
08-28-2006, 10:07 AM
Alright after I'd done a few more edits with some other mods, I became brave enough to try this.

I found the code you refer to, twice in my FORUMDISPLAY header. (Btw, I'm using vbstyles ARIA skins.)

So I added it at both locations as you suggested, and saved the template.

Next, in admincp I set 'Show the New Event button on the thread list' to YES and saved the update.

Then I go into my event forum, but all I still see is the New Thread button.:surprised:

Finally, I went back and removed the code in the 2nd spot, but still no go.:confused:

Any ideas? Here's what my code is a present in the FORUMDISPLAY...

That looks right to me. Have you uploaded the image to the right place? It should be in your style button folder (same folder as newthread.gif).

hmm this seems like a bug,

What should be happening with moving between a Event forum -> another event forum, it should move the event to the new calendar as well.

Might have to improve the code abit to stop it creating a thread when you just edit an event.

I appreciate all the offers to pay me to work on the Event Attendance! The main problem atm, is not that I don't want to find the time to work on it, its more I actually don't have time at all :p my job takes up alot of my time sometimes :)

I promise I will look at as soon as I have time, but I don't know when that is, maybe I can take some time of work soon :)

The way my site is set up we have an Upcoming events forum, and this forum is associated with our one calendar. When an event has passed, I manually move it to a recent events forum. This keeps the event discussion forum from getting cluttered. In fact, maybe this is a good idea for an automated option? When an event time has passed, move the thread to another forum? A cron to do this once a day at midnight would be fine :)

My calendar is moderated. Only after release an appointment in the calendar and forum appears. This works.

But a fault arises. The latest topic isn't updated on the forum home. Also the threadcounter.

Do you have an idea?

il stick 50 USD in too. come on people if you want it put yer money where ya mouth is and lets give evercraft an incentive he cant refuse ;)

please dont say youl chip in if you wont come up with the goods, this hack wont get made unless an extra mile is gone.

Adding the event attendance functionality would be a HUGE gain for my forum, so I am willing to at least match that $50 to make it happen.

Evercraft, can we pay you take a day off work and make it happen?

Well I've checked and re-checked everything I know to. Coud you have a peek at my settings perhap to see what else it could be? Will PM you details.

P.S.
I have only modified my first skin, the Aria Chocolate one.

Applogies if this has been mentioned before.

I've noticed a problem with the Daylight Saving times or even the timezones.

When the plugin is enabled it does not add the hour to the event time when in a daylight saving period. Disabling the plugin returns that feature. I've also had some reports that the timezone conversion is not working for some people but I have not confirmed that.

thanks for the reply evercraft. im not sure what the rules are regarding coding of hacks etc and of course its your hack and your say but if you cannot sort the hack to work with event attendance would we be able to chip in and hire another coder to get this sorted for us?

up to now from those who said they would chip in there is $170 which is a fair bit of money and im sure others would chip in to get this off the ground.

First of all, thanks for this mod. It looks good so far, but I still have some issues.

I have the same "problem" as popowich.

Also: is it possible to change the way the summary of the next x events are shown? For example: I prefer to have the title as the link and the start/ending time in a different font/colour.

I have the problem with Step 4 (Optional template edit), it just doesnt works for me, I am using blaze template layout. I found two occurances one for the <!-- controls above thread list --> and the other one for <!-- controls below thread list --> I make the proper changes still doesnt show up the new event button, I have already upload in both parts the button gif, one for the images/buttons and the other for blaze/buttons... I have set up on the admin panel to show up the new event button under the thread as was state on one of the steps, if you wonder.

Also when I try to delete a thread on the events it doesnt allow me to do it, I have to move the thread and then delete it.

I had the SAME problem. No matter what I tried, putting the code in the 1st spot, 2nd spot, or both spots I never could get it to show up. Evercraft & I never could figure out the problem.:confused:


Also when I try to delete a thread on the events it doesnt allow me to do it, I have to move the thread and then delete it.
However, I don't have this problem. When I go to delete an event of course, I use the drop down box (edit;delete;move-event) and another screen loads up asking for me to validate the deletion. Once I do that, it drops me over into the Calendar and the event (I just deleted) is gone.

Any way to have the Events summary show up in a vBa CMPS module? I tried creating a template module using the code from the lv_vb_eventforums_eventsSummary template, but that didn't work. I don't know enough about it to really figure out what might work - thought I'd give that a shot. Any one have any ideas?

Is there anyway, similar to Yahoo, that one could have a reminder msg posted into the forums of an upcoming event? Yahoo allows one to select up to 2 notices, like 7 & 14 days beforehand, etc.

I understand the email option is there for individual users to sign up on, but am looking for a general msg to post into the forum reminding users about such.

I've modified this hack on my forums to integrate with the Event Attendance 2.0 script. This will only work if you have Event Attendance 2.0 installed as well (which does work with vb 3.6.0 if you uninstall it and reinstall it).

Below are the steps you need to merge these two products:

Find the following line of code in the "Display Event Details on Thread Page" plugin (under Product : Lv vB Event Forums):
$eventinfo['event'] = $bbcode_parser->parse($eventinfo['event'], $foruminfo['forumid'], true);

Under that add this block:
// EVENT SIGNUP HACK //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

$vbphrase['roll_nobody'] = fetch_phrase("roll_nobody", 'calendar');
$vbphrase['roll_cancel'] = fetch_phrase("roll_cancel", 'calendar');
$vbphrase['roll_enroll'] = fetch_phrase("roll_enroll", 'calendar');
$vbphrase['roll_text'] = fetch_phrase("roll_text", 'calendar');

//Check time till event
$time_until_event=$eventinfo['dateline_from']-(TIMENOW+$vbulletion->userinfo['timezoneoffset']*3600);
if ($vbulletin->userinfo['dstonoff'])
{
$time_until_event=$time_until_event-3600;
}
//echo $time_until_event." ";
$show['enroll']=(($time_until_event>0) || ($vbulletin->options['lateenroll'])) ? true : false;

//show enrolled people
$rollcount=0;
if ($eventinfo['useroll'])
{
// Roll for this event
unset($rollbits);
$show['userattending'] = false;

I am good for sending some cash your way, if you can be a bit more specific about where to find the code you modified. It is in a file or do I get at it via the template editor?

I am comfortable subbing in the code, I just don't understand where to go about doing so.

I've modified this hack on my forums to integrate with the Event Attendance 2.0 script. This will only work if you have Event Attendance 2.0 installed as well (which does work with vb 3.6.0 if you uninstall it and reinstall it).

Below are the steps you need to merge these two products:

I was just kidding about that. No worries. I wanted to make this modification for my boards anyway, so I am happy to share it.

To find the plugins I mentioned above, you'd need to go into "Plugins & Products" section of the Admin Panel. Then go into the Plugin Manager and look for the plugins mentioned above under the product group "Product : Lv vB Event Forums". You then edit each plugin as indicated above.

But, if you'd like an easier route, I hope the original author won't mind if I post a modified XML file. You can import the product xml file I am attaching and OVERWRITE the existing product (be sure to use overwrite, do not uninstall or you may loose settings and thread to event relationships).

I am on version 3.6.0 at the moment, and I am able to delete events without any errors. I will be upgrading to 3.6.1 in the next week or so, so I will see if I can figure out what the delete problem is if someone else hasn't already got it fixed by then.

Good work with the attendance patch, ill have a look when I get time and put that version in the downloads. I can proberly improve it a bit to detect whether the attendance mod is installed, and intergrate it with the latest version.

There does seem to be a problemo with the latest version of vb with this plugin. I'll try and setup my test area to 3.6.1 and see whats going wrong. Hopefully its a quick fix. I'll also try and get round to looking at the other problems reported tonight too if I can.

Hi all

I've posted an update for vB Event Forums.

2 things you will find:

- Deleteing an event now works properly again.
- Event Attendance now works with this mod! Farcaster kindly posted a patch for it, which I have intergrated into the mod. It will now automatically check if the mod is installed and active, and run the correct code.

You can find the latest version, which is now 3.3, at the thread link below:

I would really like to have a CMPS module to show the Events Summary. I have tried creating a template, but the event area is blank. I realize that is because the plugin that works to put the event summary in the forum will not work in a CMPS module. I have tried looking at it to see if I could figure out myself how to do what I need, but it is beyond my abilites. Is there any chance this is something you plan to do for this hack? If not I will need to figure something else out, but I love this hack and it is perfect for my site (it is a community site), so it would be really great if that could be integrated. :)

I find the event attendance plugin to have poor support, no updates, not working off the bat for 3.6, and has bugs/fixes that are most needed.

Why not just add your own event attendance code ?? I think it would benefit everyone here greatly and be much easier to maintain/handle.

Yes, follow these instructions and it will make the "Allow Users to Enroll" check box checked by default for new events:

1. In the AdminCP, go into Plugins & Products -> Plugin Manager.
2. Find the plugins for the product "Event Attendance".
3. Open the plugin "Event Attendance - add enroll to create form"
4. Blank out the entire code window and replace it with:

if (($type!='recur') OR (($type=='recur') AND ($vbulletin->options['enroll_reoccur']))) {

$disablesmiliesoption.='<div><label for="cb_rollcall"><input type="checkbox" checked="checked" name="useroll" value="1" id="cb_roll" tabindex="3" '.$useroll.' />'.$vbphrase['roll_allowenroll'].'</label></div>';

Great work Evercraft, thank you very much!!

The new updated code for 3.6.1 is working great for me now, but I do have one small issue.

One of the events I tried to delete before updating to 3.3 will not go away. The event is not in the Calendar it is just in the event forum area BUT inside the event/topic there isn't anything there, just a thread title, date, time and thread starter there is no thread info.

When I try to delete I am told "No topic selected, contact admin".

Any ideas how I can remove this? If not it's no big deal I guess sooner or later it will fall behind.

ok well basically what you need, is for the plugin code in Show up and coming events for a specified forum id to be run on that page. Its done using hooks into the original vb files, but as far as im away, CMPS doesnt support hacks so you'd have to edit the CMPS file to display it.

basically that code generates what goes in the summary box :)

Unfortunatly I haven't really looked much at CMPS, so I don't really know much more to help.

I think you might be able to remove it by running one of the counters under the maintenace menu at the bottom of the admin CP menu. I think it might be rebuild thread info, or there might be one for fix broken threads or something (cant check right now). Let me know if it helps.

not at the moment.

Originally when I made the summary, when it was sorted by Event, I just couldn't get it to look very good at all, it was a real mess.

It would be nice to put that option back, but i'd need to look at sorting it out a bit.

in your plugin to display in showthread you only get

$customtitle = $key;
$customoption = convert_url_to_bbcode(unhtmlspecialchars($value));

never mind, I redid all images so I use optiontitle instead of id, which is a pain, as titles do change sometimes, but not ID

Yes i really want this too myself :p

The event attendance sort of does this (it adds its own option), so I may be able to add a few of the options in by looking at that, but i'd like to find a better way so it shows all the same stuff as a post. The other option, is to change when you add an event, instead to take you to a new thread screen, and put the date controls there. That might work, but either way its a bit complicated :o

Theres also another mod called Post thank you (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=122944), which is very similar but is updated often, and has some nice other features over event attendance.

All that would need to be changed would be the phrases to say something like, users who are attending, instead of thankyou.

It was suggested by someone a while ago, but I only just remembered about it.

Has anyone tried this with Event Forums?

Evercraft & myself looked over everything I had done to get it to work and never could figure out why it would not show up. My only guess is that I'm using Miko's ARIA Skins (from vbstyles) and that might have had something to do with it.:confused: So not that this helps you any, just to let you know you are not alone.

I have heed your advice and it turns out it is actually a bug in the Attendance Mod itself. So now the problems lies in that the Event Attendance Mod has no updates for a while. Any ideas how to fix this?

Seriously, Any ideas?

GREAT to see that this is now working with Event Attendance! finally installed. great work!

a couple issues though:

1) i just posted my first event. any idea why it would be showing up as an event AND a post immediately after? see what i mean in the attached screenshot..

2) when viewing the forum, the thread title shows the date, but on search results, the thread title has no date.

and a couple general questions:

3) what would happen if i merge an existing thread (created before i installed this) with a NEW calendar event? there are some discussions about upcoming events which aren't linked to the calendar, and i'm wondering if this will accomplish that..

4) %custom = Event's custom fields (if any) <-- can someone explain this? where can you add custom fields to an event?

thanks!

UPDATE: got 3 & 4 figured out.. can't merge threads, but you CAN move posts into an event thread (though it's a little screwy)..

regarding #4 - it would be nice if you could separate out your custom fields in the thread title (like Custom1 (Custom2) - DateTime: Title)..

still looking for info on 1 and 2 above.. #2 being *very* important.

(another) UPDATE: just found something else that isn't quite right - when you're in the calendar and you click on an event from the weekly or monthly view, you're taken to the thread. however, if you're in the yearly view (or the small month 'preview' at the bottom) and click on a date, you're only taken to the event, and NOT to the thread.

i'm guessing that this is because there could be multiple events on one day, which makes sense. however, i think a good added functionality would be to first check for multiple events on that day, and if there is only ONE event, take you to the event thread. does that make sense? would it be possible to add that in?

Anyone else had problems editing events since installing this mod? I get the following if I try:
Fatal error: Only variables can be passed by reference in E:\Inetpub\wwwroot\boards\includes\class_dm_event. php(569) : eval()'d code on line 41
I can work around this by going to Thread Tools/Move Thread (whether there are any posts besides the event or not) - then, I can edit the event, and move the posts back into the event thread. But other than immediately after moving the thread to another location, I haven't been able to edit the event. (Deleting the event, however, works fine)

Installed it.

However I've either found bugs or i've done something wrong.

In the thread created on event creation there is an "event options" drop down selecting delete event option throws up the error "you selected no posts for this feature" selecting all from the quick dropdown jobbie and then selecting "delete thread" gives the error message "vb tip #42: merging a post with itself wont get you very far"
to delete an event you have to select the delete thread option from thread tools.

next little problem as in this screen shot.
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=51833&d=1155066115

Have these issues been resolved yet?

* Soft delete actually hard deletes the thread.
* Search doesn't search the first post of an event thread.
* Inline ajax edit bugs thread title. Need to remove date and time from it before edit.

I am in desperate need of this hack working flawlessly :)

HAHAHA ok are you ready for this one.

I went into the event forum and clicked on "New Thread"

I noticed that while typing, anytime I hit the space bar, it would save the thread but not close the window...I then had 4 versions of my event.

Could not get to do it again, however, thought it was odd.

I would recommend though, when you click on new thread in the event forum, the add new event dialog comes up...it lets you enter a date, however, no times or recurring options. Anyway to get it to do that?

The way my site is set up we have an Upcoming events forum, and this forum is associated with our one calendar. When an event has passed, I manually move it to a recent events forum. This keeps the event discussion forum from getting cluttered. In fact, maybe this is a good idea for an automated option? When an event time has passed, move the thread to another forum? A cron to do this once a day at midnight would be fine :)

-Raymond


I second that idea.


I have a question, im not sure if this is already a feature or if its possible. I remember trying to mod this back in the previous version without luck. Okay in the Forum view, is there a way to force the listing of event thread in order of event date. So regardless of a new post or new event thread they stay in chronological order?


There isnt currently a way with this mod. I'm not really sure if its very well possible, it might be.

Why is that impossible BUT sorting the events in the "summary box" is done by date? Why not just use the same sorting function/code from that?

Having the events all over the place and with dates in no specific order makes one hell of a mess on a forum that depends on "date sorted" events...


the easy way of fixing this issue for some of us would be to simply revert back to the old way of creating threads -> embedding the date into the thread title at creation/update time and inserting it into the database like that (so it's not just "virtually added" and goes missing once the thread is moved to another forum). that way we could still sort threads alphabetically, and that would get us threads sorted by dates (with a proper date format).

Crazy Serb
11-15-2006, 09:53 PM
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.

Is there any way to delay posting of events?

Example:

Post an entire year of events in the calendar.

Thread created when its within X days of event.

Full scope:

Id like to post the entire year's game schedule of a sports team in the calendar, and have a game-day-thread created 1 day before the event each time automatically then block users from starting threads or creating events. Keeps it uniform and automatic.

Not only does the new event button disapears when you turn on the summary but the first post "meaning the event post" disapears also from the thread.

Good question. I see Evercraft hasn't been on since Oct though, so not sure when we might hear something back. Anyway, it's GOOD to hear it can be made to show up! So it's sounding like more of a permissions problem from what you're saying. Thanxx for the info.

Strange one here...

I installed this hack last night. I also had installed previously Farcasters Event Attendance and Farcaster's Event Attendance & vb Event Forums Integration, which he released last night.

I had waited to install this hack as Farcaster said his hack wouldn't work with this...until last night when he released Farcaster's Event Attendance & vb Event Forums Integration.

So, installed it last night along with this hack...

Problem now is that when I click on the calendar and schedule an event with a certain date....lets use the latest one I added... December 20, 2006. It adds the event in the forum I set up, but changes the date to November 30, 1999. I've added two other events...and for some reason...it changes the entire date, however...if you look at the calendar...it shows the correct date scheduled.

I'm not real good at explaining myself, so I'll attach some images to show what I'm refering to.

Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.

My forums is located at: www.f-bodyhideout.com/forums

Update
No matter what date I set in the calendar for an event...it changes them as in my attachment 2 to read 11-30-1999.

Does anyone having the problem with the integration hack and the dates changing have a test site with debug turned on that I can look? The debug information will help me understand where it is getting the date from.

I would like to ask all of you for your input about better managing my events. For instance... I run a car forums where there are members all across the U.S. I've broken my forums down to capture groups of the U.S.

Regional Gatherings and Events (This is the category)
- Eastern States (forum)
- Pacific States (forum)
- Mountain States (forum)
- Central States (forum)

What I would like to know....is currently, I have the Events Forum set up to use one calendar and it's using a seperate forum than those I've listed "Scheduled Events". Problem with using just one forum for all of our events is that there are events that I would rather capture putting them in each of their own forums.

For instance...if a member posting in the Eastern States forum wants to post up a new event in the calendar...the Events Forum will grab that and put it in the Eastern States forum. As with a member in the Pacific States....if he posts up a new event for the pacific states area...that event will go into the Pacific States forum.

I hope this is making sense...cause I'm just about feeling like I'm confusing myself. :doh:

I welcome your thoughts on this as it can better help me in managing this hack and my forums.

I have a problem.

I have 2 forums specified for 1 calendar. If I create an event in the 2nd forum, it's added to the 1st forum instead. I've tried reversing the order, I've tried other forum, I've tried more then 2... EVERYTHING goes to the first forum specified.

Yea, I had the same issue....so I was figuring that the hack just doesn't like to use multiple forums for the same calendar id. This is why I'm trying to figure out a different way to get this hack to work with my other forums....but it appears I will have to use multiple calendars...bummer...as it would be easiest for my members in all states to work off of one calendar.

Greg, sounds like your forums for your events are laid out very similar to mine then.

|oR|Greg
12-15-2006, 04:44 PM
Not really the same layout, but the same problem I agree. I have a Meeting/Events forum, and I have a Universal Threads forum. The Universal Threads is a hack that allows any thread in the specified forum to show across all other forums just like an announcement would, however because it's a thread, people can comment on it. I also customized it so it shows broken out like a Sticky Thread.

Here is an example. This is my General Forum (http://www.amacny.com/vb/forumdisplay.php?f=5). You'll see the Uni's at the VERY top of the thread listing with there own header, then Stickies, then Normal threads.

So, some events are general weekly, hey are we doing anything this weekend, those stay in Meetings/Events. But we have monthly meetings and special events that go in Universal Threads because those are bigger events then just a weekend hangout. I shouldn't have to use a 2nd calendar and that is just going to confuse people even more I think. I would like this hack to work as advertised.

I've edited them fine.

Also for the time being I added a second calendar and it works, but I REALLY would like it fixed so it's only 1 calendar, but multiple forums.

Why can't you make it array based, like instead of

1:3
1:43

Something like

1:3,43

That way you can specify which forums get which calendars?

Hi,

Thank you for your response. I'm guessing no one else has this problem. I would assume that it has a conflict with something else I have installed. I will continue working with a and hopefully I can figure out why it will not let me edit, also noticed I could not move it, not that I've wanted to but I was checking. The good news is, I can delete the post/calendar event.

If anybody else has a similar problem board knows how to fix this I would appreciate your feedback.


Happy Holidays.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1139315&postcount=199

Well... I have found that $lv_vb_eventforums_eventdetails must be placed after $navbar, if I place the $lv_vb_eventforums_eventdetails any where else the Edit/Delete will not work.

Is there a fix for this...? :confused:

Have you checked your calendar settings for that particular calendar to make sure the range is set correctly? It is possible that your date range is set to end in 2006.

The Events in the Summary atop the forum are grouped by date. Ranged events are then listed as often as the number of days they last. Could you change this hack to allow the upcoming events to be grouped by event? That'd be great!

Is there any way to delay posting of events?

Example:

Post an entire year of events in the calendar.

Thread created when its within X days of event.




This addition has come up a few times. How complex would this be to have the forum thread created X days prior to the actual event.

This is something I've been looking for. I need to add a twist to it. I want to use this for dispatch scheduling. For every event (Job) I need it to create a thread where installers can update notes and attach workorders using the attachment function.

Bottom like here I think is to replace the word Event with the word Job. Can this be done?

It works both ways. There is a new button (New Event) added to the forum, allowing you to post a new thread or a new event, which ends up on the calendar.
