I know exactly what you have happening! If the left sidebar hack was installed before AboutToday, the left sidebar gets evaluated before the AboutToday information.

I know how to show you to fix it but I'm not on a computer where I can do so. Give me about 12 hours and I will be.

The only thing I dont understand is why would I want to use this plugin's Add Event feature versus vbulletin's Calendar feature. I made the categories and can add events into them, just not sure the benefit of this.

I do love the RSS feed, I can take motorcycle-related RSS feeds and add them to my motorcycle-related forum. Whooohoooo!!

I also made sure that the usergroups premissions allow them to view the feeds. and still NOTTA
please help

I've uploaded an updated product that should solve this issue for you. Basically, it makes sure that the $myfeeds are evaluated before the left sidebar gets evaluated.

For you techies, the plugin abouttoday_myfeeds has been moved from the global_start hook to the cache_templates hook.

Great Question! The "Add Event" feature is intended to help you if you want for example - Sports: Today in History. With the vb calendar, you cannot have categories and you are restricted with how far back the dates can go. So with the "Add Event" feature, you could have a category tree like:
  • Hockey
    • Professional
    • College
    • High School
  • Football
    • American Football
    • The Rest of the World (Soccer)
  • Baseball

with the normal calendar feature, you cannot have categories. And with "Add Event" you can have any date. So, if you want an event like "Jan 1, 132 B.C. - the first ball was invented", you can do that. But, that isn't possible in the normal calendar. Also, the events in "Add Event" are fully searchable.

No, I do not see it either. There is no downloadable file except the vbA addon.

Westpointer, can you help out here?
