My default calendar is "calendarid=1" and the Events forum id is "id: 8"...so I simply entered 1:8 in the first box of the Event Forums control panel.
;)

Thanks Al, a learner an d that helps

Not sure if I'm missing something, but I cannot change the number of days in my summary downwards.

I set it to 7 days, then 14 days and now 30 days, but in seeing there are far too many events for the summary i tried to set it back down to 7 ... and it wont change from 30 ?!?!?!?

Anyone come across this before?

This is not without a few flaws in 4.2.1 and so far seems to work in 4.2.2
but I am getting this error
Could someone smarter than I please tell me what it means

I am super excited that this has been fixed. :) Any idea if this is working with the Event Attendance bridge? https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=133970

This is such a great idea and so much a needed addition, can anyone get interested in making this work in 4.2.2?

It seems to be working for me in 4.22 Just the thread list is not appearing

Another addition would be to include Google Map of the event location ....

Xenforo have a free addon for events that have a couple of good ideas

1 Google map of event location - awesome!!
2 List of upcoming events in separate page
3 An events archive page
4 RSPV system to allow people to notify they'll be attending!!

Im running 4.2.2 - anyone working on upgrading this??? Would be awesome!!

have someone an example to show me? i'm looking for 4.2.2 :D

Since I have AME installed, I use the Google Maps definition to include maps and such. Streeth view looks pretty good in the events, though I haven't used it that way in a while.

Ok, I downloaded AME3, installed and updated the Hook and definitions as per thread but I cant get the map to come up when I place the google map code in the post - I guess I need the Definition for Google Maps which I noticed isn't in this list but is in the older version list which wont import into this version?

Also - is there a way to add Co-ordinates? Latitude and Longitude inside the Google Map definition?

Maybe I should be posting this in AME3 I think .......

does this works with vbulletin 4.2.2? i would like this to use with my new forum on www.psn-senioren.de

i also use farcaster event plugin

Hello insidegames,
I don't think it's farcaster ready! ...but Check out post 825 on page 55. BarracodE did a good job with a few fixes.
I have just started testing it out this week...I hope he has an update :)

I have a few issues...
Edit: Sorted! My issue was a map bbcode which I have now removed! :)

Dang, this was a very powerful mod that I miss, just noticed why it don't work, because it was abandoned :(

Thanks for the great mod, Hopefully one day you will bring it back to life.

working with 4.2.2

just cant find where to add the image code in the 4.2.2 template ...... will have another go to find it today

vB 4.2.2

How to get the calendar event link to go to showthread instead of the

Code:

calendar.php?do=getinfo&day....

It just seems like double content and I would like to encourage replies by going directly to the event thread. :)

Could some kind developer put ALL the 4.2.2 fixes in one post please. This is such an awesome mod as the calendars are one of the least modified in vB yet so important

I used post 825 to install this in my site with 4.2.2. It is working, sort of. I am having a few problems, maybe someone can help?

The event will post to the calendar correctly with all of the custom fields and a thread is created in the forum - but the thread only has the title and event description, non of the custom fields.

Also (and less important), instead of saying Add New Event at the top of the forum, it says Post New Thread (though clicking that does take you to add event).

Did you upload the New Event GIF into your Buttons directory?

Ah, nope - I sure didn't! Thanks! :)

Any ideas on the missing custom fields? That is my real concern! I used the older version of this mod in vb3.8 and the custom fields worked then.

No sorry, as I'm still running vB3.8 myself.

Thanks for the reply! Hopefully someone else can help me out.

Any step by step guide to get it working on 4.2.2?

This looks like a brilliant mod and would love to implement it on my forum

Tried this again and it seemed to upload but then sent me a message saying templates merged and no product appears...any ideas on this little twist?

Update: I reloaded the xml, nothing, I uploaded again after doing a total Maintenance whip around and voila it appeared and seems to be working fantastically. I have to tell you I am rapt as this also works really well to enhance Calendar posts if you are a serious Publisher

I am having file version problems on my site and have to look at this mod as a suspect, it would be nice to have a proper update version for VB4

Does anyone know if there is a version for vb 4.x ?

Thanks.

Not so blind after all. :)

I was just going to post that link!

##Actually I was going to post a different link..will post as soon as I find it.

I could never get this one working correctly in 4.2 even though some claim to have had it working in 4.

The closest I could find is https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=234741 and I do not think it is close to what you want. I have a client that was also looking for better event management and forums for Vb4.2..

Well, thank you blind-eddie for your link, but how can this help me ? (I am a noob sorry for that)

@ Richieboy : I already download this. But it does not create a new topic when an event is created in a calendar.

Notice your first post wording.... So, I linked you to event forums for vb4

@ Richieboy : I already download this. But it does not create a new topic when an event is created in a calendar.

There is this addon that will do this for you.

What I am searching is a mod that creates a topic when a user create an event in a calender. My mistake, I wasn't really clear, sorry.

The Farcaster's Event Attendance v3 (for vb4) allows to say if a user will be a part of the event. It doesn't create a topic in a specific forum when a user create a new event.
Thanks for your help.

Are you sure for Farcaster's Event attendance https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=234741 ?

The modification list does not say that and I can't manage to create new thread in a specific forum when I add a new event. How do you do that ?

May be you are refering to an old combination of Farcaster's Event attendance with a mod in graveyard (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=234794) ?

Thanks for your answer.

No, I am referring to this one.

I have the vb3 version installed on my test site, it is really no different then the vb4 version, you just need to install it on your board and play with it.

I set up both on my test board but, use them separately.
If I used them together, a new thread woud be created without going to the calendar page.
For this demo, I will link you to the calendar to post a new event.

After you post the event, click new post.

Demo on 3.8 board.

Code:

http://blind-eddie.com/forum/calendar.php?do=add&type=single&c=1 Login: Test Account One Password: 00000000

You're right it does create a new topic on your forum.

But not with mine.

Here are the screens after I create an event with just Farcarter's mod :
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2014/08/53.png
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2014/08/54.png

And I did look at the options, none of them allow me to select a forum where the events will be created.

I will install this on my localhost later today and see what I can do for you.

Thank you very much :)

16 hour days are killing lately, I am sorry. I will install and pm you when I am done.
