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:

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.

also, it would be great if someone could make Phoogle maps work with this mod as well... that way all events could have embedded google maps too.

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

Has anyone tried to integrate Adsense with this as a second and last post?

Does this work with Version 3.6.8?

Yep, works with 3.6.8 ;)

Fixed..

Great mod!

It doesn't seem to add threads for holidays, which is good. And I'm guessing it's the same for birthdays, right?

its just adding threads to custom events;)

Not sure if this has been mentioned before but everything is working ok except that for some reason the new event gif isn't showing up. Edited the template, set the option in the admin cp to yes, there is a link there that says add new event which goes to the calendar, it's next to the new thread button but no image is being displayed. The image is in my images/buttons directory but it's not displayed. Everything else works brilliantly, excellent hack.

EDIT: Problem seems to have fixed itself now, image didn't upload properly. Excellent hack. BTW is there a PDF of the newevent.gif? I'd like to change the colours.

Hi there, have just started going through the set-up etc

and I was wondering whether there could be a feature to send an email reminder to the user who has added their event to add their event for the following year's calendar, especially if it is a recurring event, please?

ps.. in case there are event changes

Thanks

This won't fix that problem, but it may be a suitable work-around for you. Check out Cybernetec's Check if Already Posted as it's always worked well for me.

Hello. I hope that someone can help me. Is there a way to NOT create a thread for certain events? Basically, I want to add some events that do not require RSVP (I know that i can just select the option). If I select to not allow RSVP, then I don't want it to create the thread.

Anyone know how to go about doing this?

I am having a very weird problem.

All events that are linked with a thread now start at the 2nd post and do not show the actual events details!!

Some examples:

Please help I am very stuck.

Thanks,

Everything is working good.

But I screw the code up so how for added the addevent button.
It shows up and works but right after it you see some code: else />

How do I get rid of it??

Also can anyone make a hack that combines this with Farcaster's Event Attendance hack?? So it show up on each event calendar forum? :)

Thanks!

Does anyone have any ideas about this?

I had the options selected to use a template variable. All good now. Hope that may help someone else with a similar issue.

Not sure if anyone wants this but I integrated events with coppermine albums. Meaning if you create an event it will create an album and link the two. 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!

Has anyone fixed the smilies and maps issue with this mod yet. SO these show up in there? Well will work on that right now I guess.

Where can we find this ?

Im very interested

Not sure if this is the place to post instructions to do it. PM me or hit me up on AIM and I will give you the edits. Very easy to add the details in the code.

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.

Your should post it as a new MOD, im sure heaps of people would like it

If you want it I guess others might. Will post it on monday.

Just wondering if the developer has any plans to port this to the new vBulletin 3.7.0?
Because that would be fantastic.

The developer hasn't been online since Aug 2007, so somehow I doubt it.

Yeah I noticed that. Hopefully someone will pick it up from where they left off. I might give it a try if no one else fancies it.

This is a MUST have mod for me so you can count on me still supporting it.

I have installed vB Event mod. It works great.

Is there any way to automatically move expired events from one board to another ?

It works on 3.7, so there is no port needed.

Just create a prune to move it to an archive cat or something.

i took the recycle add-on https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...recycle+thread and changed it so, that it is just shown in the event forum

Sorry to bump my own request, but after three months I thought I'd ask this question again if anybody is available to help.

Many thanks
Ron

I haven't even had time to install this yet but it looks very cool.

Has anyone thought of integrating some sort of gmap to show the locations of events/upcoming events?

Also can anyone help me with an if statement so I only see the "new events" button on the events forum? I want this to happen only on forumid 24.

<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>

If anyone else runs into this...

<if condition="$forumid == 27">
// your code just for specific forum or categories here
</if>

You get the idea... Now I just have a new events button at the top and bottom for only the events forum yay!

how do i actiavte the RSVP feature?

i am looking thru the post now, but cannot seem to find it. thank you

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:
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 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/showthrea...15#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.
