Any way to have bbcode working? It's allowen on calendar and forum permissions but nothing!

BBcode works fine on mine. :confused: Check your usergroup permissions.

No problem with the admin usergroup...

Then it's almost definitely a permissions issue with that other usergroup. Make a test user and put them under that usergroup and then look at the forum permissions at the bottom of a thread. If "bbcode is off" then the permissions need to be changed.

Uhm, it's a Ces Parser Permission mod problem. If I disable the product, bbcode works fine..

What is Ces Parser Permission mod?

Anyone have any problems when upgrading to Patch Level 1 on 3.8.4?

Anyone know how to sort this out.
As you maybe able to see from the screenshot the Event has pushed down the vBadvanced menu on the left and gone full width.

How can I get it to come back into line so the vBadvanced it by the side of it.

I have vbadvanced installed, but I don't use it on my event forums. I think you'll need to have the vba enabled for both calendar event listings and forum threads for it to work, but this is just a guess.

Any idea how to make multiple "new event" links in the forums to include all 3 event types (single day, ranged, recurring)? I don't want my users to be limited to only being able to post one type of event.

I imagine it has to do with modifying the "Redirect NEW THREAD link to NEW EVENT form" plugin somehow. I just can't picture how to do it.

Change your setting in the vb events options "Use template variable for Event Details" to yes so that you place the $lv_vb_eventforums_eventdetails variable in your showthread template (under the $poll variable) - because right now it's showing up at the end of your navbar template. That should fix your alignment.

I've thought about how to do this, but just haven't done it yet. It can be done just in templates.

In template FORUMDISPLAY you have the code for the newthread button. I was going to put in an if statement to check if it is an event forum, and if so display the dropdown box for 'Add New Event' from the calendar template instead of the newthread.gif.

In fact, after looking at this methodology and the one by the author for the 'new event' button option. You can use the new event option in the settings and place this code instead of the one listed by the author:I haven't tested this at all, so try it out and set what happens. It's only a template change so you can easily change it back. Be sure to set the option in the event forum options to use the 'new event' button instead of the 'new thread' one.

Something is wrong in the html I posted, but it gives the general idea. I don't have time to work on it right now.

The problem is, the original hack html code doesn't list the calendarID, it's in the plugin (where the calendar and forum is mapped). So the new event button only references the forumID. I tried getting the calendarID to print on the page to see if it would work without success. The plugin needs to be edited, it can't be done through html alone.

Hmmm...I see what you're saying. It's a dirty solution, but you could hard code the calendar ID if you only have one event forum. Or if you have multiple, use an if statement that checks what the forum ID is and then puts the appropriate calendar ID. I'm going to see if I can work on this tonight. I can't sleep.

I got something working, but without the javascript menus. I had to hardcode not only the calendar ID, but the phrases for the add event menu. It works, but looks terrible. I'll have to work on it more later.

THis working on 3.8.4?

i have it working fine out of the box on 3.8.4 pl1

This mod has become an integral part of my forum infact one of the busiest sections is my event forums, I really hope something can be sorted with it for vb4 as I would hate to lose this mod.

Any managed to get the button to work on VB 3.8.4?

Are you talking about the button mentioned in the installation or a custom the one we've been working on?

I agree.

Someone needs to rewrire this mod for vb4 asap. I've got $100 towards the fund.

I also have this MOD in heavy use. Looks like the coder of this mod has not been online since Sept. 2009. Not a good sign.

Has anyone tried the mod on any of the vB4 Beta or RC. yet?

It won't work.

I won't be moving to vb4 unless this mod or a similar one works. I also an willing to help fund a mod with support.

I'm also willing to make a donation for this mod being upgraded.

I have started to play with this. I am not using none of this code. I plan to rewrite the whole thing from the ground up. Here are my thoughts.

Mine will work with forums and subforums.
Mine will only have usergroup permissions for Posting Only. - Read permissions come from vbulletin settings already in place.
When you click New Event it will forward you to my new file eventthread.php instead of newthread. Thus allowing me to to split this into two database tables and allowing me my own templates so on this page you will see the same thing you see now on add new event from the calender page.

This will then take your post and insert it to the calender and the forum you pressed new event in.

You will have to disable posting of new events on the calender its self if you want every event posted through the forums already an option in the adminCP.

Mine will be simple and sweet. There is no estimated time on a release. I like to work out as many bugs as I can. I will not accept no money. In exchange for a mod this size there will be a very small copyright on the post event page. Please don't blow up my PM box asking when it will be done. This is a major part of my forum and I will release it for all as soon as it is working 100% on my end.

Will you add RSVP (event attendance)?

Yeah I will add that with a option to turn it off.

I do not want to take over this thread with suggestions.


Be aware this may take me some time to get working. To be honest I like to hope evercraft comes by and releases a update.

major part of my forums also...

I've migrated 2 to VB4, but missing this one already.

Happy to put up some $'s also to get this to work on VB4.

Thank god!

Great to hear. Feel free to let us know if you need any feedback or suggestions. I've personally played with this mod extensively before implementation, as many others have in this thread. If you've started a thread on your proposed mod, please let us know the link so we can keep discussions with you separate from those about this mod.

I'm ecstatic that someone thinks this mod is worthy of carrying over to vb4. I was afraid the concept was really as unimportant as the rest of the world thinks it is.

This mod combined with Farcaster's RSVP are a big deal on my board too....vB 4.0 just killed them all

waitinggggg rspv coool!!!!!

I know this Calendar mod is on hold waiting for a rewrite.

But to anyone who has used it, is it possible to designate SELECTED events only for the Events forum?
This could be very useful to me on its return, but I wouldn't want every tiny item to have a forum thread - many of my events are small routine things that happen every week.

This is a lot of work with out using any of this code.

I have no errors but it don't work either. So if any other coder wants to take on this project or work with me on it. Other wise it will not be out any time soon.

Version 4.0?

This is a pretty big mod. I didn't think it was going to be easy to write from scratch, but I think there's a lot of efficiency that can be gained from the existing code base.

Have you figured out the pseudocode and the basic functions needed? I can only program enough to make small pieces of code for myself, but I'm willing to help however I can.

This would be hard to implement as it would require another db field to indicate which events have a event thread and which don't.

A workaround is to have two calendars--one for regular events that don't need a discussion and one for those that do. The other thing would be to close the threads for those that you don't want a discussion.
