Looking for Mods / How to do this

[Mr. Mooney]

Hey everyone, got a question from a customer. He wants to know if this is possible with vBulletin:

1. a comprehensive searchable list of car clubs (search by type, location, etc)
2. a comprehensive calender that is searchable by date, state, city, etc

Here is a good example of the calendar: http://www.hemmings.com/calendar/
Here is a good example of the club listing: http://www.hemmings.com/clubs/

Any idea how we could fit this into vB.

Cheers

[Mr. Mooney]

Anyone have any suggestions?

1. That sounds like just making a search page. You would still have to create the database entries that lists all the types of cars, locations, etc. Once you enter all that data into your database, then you just run a query based on the drop-down criteria. The query is the easy part, the hard part is probably all the data entry and setting up the database correctly for it.

2. You may search through the Calendar Mods here, but I don't think there are a whole lot. It's kinda an area that is lacking in Mods. As far as I recall, the calendar events are not searchable and I'm not sure if anyone wrote a Mod to do so (but it is just stuff in the database, so I'm sure you could).

Ya, just list all the car clubs in a post/forum with tags and there ya go - it's searchable!

Events can be searched if you have the Event Forums (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=123416) mod installed. But unless people actually include tags like state, then obviously a search by state won't work.
