What I have posted is for vb4, apparently I'm not recalling how I did it for 3.8, sorry Joan.

I don't use the CMS, just the forum so I also have no idea how to do this for the CMS.

All it does is take the Upcoming Events from WGO and puts it on the top of FORUMHOME. If it's working in WGO, it will work on the top of the page. The code just 'pretties it up' a bit.

Front Range 06-12-2010 01:05 PM

How many events do you have? If you have 1, that's all that can show. If you have more you need to set the length of time ahead to display.

Options -> Forum Home Page Options -> Display Calendar Events?

Set for number of days to display. I use 90

This works great and I love how easy it was to do. Here it is running on my site, just go to the forum and you will see it.

I sort of like the way it looks on my site with the events on separate lines....http://rinconforums.com/forum.php

Yes, but it looks like he actually manually coded it out of WGO at the bottom.

Front Range 4x4 08-09-2010 06:41 PM

Yes, I did that myself since I found very few people scroll to the bottom of forumhome. This way people cannot help but see it. It looks like CoronasRGood eliminated the commalist code to keep the original style.

<ol class="commalist">
{vb:raw upcomingevents}
</ol>

You can also just copy & paste the appropriate section from WGO and keep it as it is originally but in a more visible spot.

Sheesh, well I had to do something to fix all the broken dates in the product version. Done, but I sure wish you could get the product fixed as I really don't look forward to doing manual edits with every upgrade.

Front Range 4x4 08-09-2010 07:46 PM

What did you have to do Videx? I'm at 4.0.2 myself so haven't dealt with upgrades.

Videx 08-09-2010 10:36 PM

I just did what you just suggested - copied and pasted the whole upcoming events block to the top of the forumhome template. As per my post in the other thread, all the dates were a day off with the product, as well as events being posted from 5 days out instead of the next 3 days.

Front Range 4x4 08-09-2010 10:44 PM

That's odd but maybe Dark_Wizard has an answer.

It's not broken. Though there are way too many versions floating around right now. You should go over to the add-on thread and try that one before messing with this version which requires manual editing.

If you still need to post a problem, we'll need more info. First, assure us you're using the default style and have tried disabling all other products. Then at least give us a link.

vB has been taking their sweet time developing a corporate solution for this Calendar Widget. It has been logged in Jira, but there have only been TWO votes so far and it appears to have been deprioritized.

Please log into Jira and VOTE FOR THIS! It will only take you a minute: http://tracker.vbulletin.com/browse/VBIV-7656

A number of customer have asked for a calendar widget that will access the current site calendar. That is distinct from the current cms calendar widget that displays dates on which articles have been published. Wayne also feels this should get a high priority.

I've added this but the headerbar isn't displaying. Any ideas where I could be going wrong? - www.t-muscle.co.uk

Eq4bits 03-21-2011 06:23 AM

Woot! Thanks for this. My writing group REALLY uses this, now they can't miss an upcoming event because of not scrolling down.

not sure if it will show to unregistered guests but here's my link:
http://dawnsistersweyr.net/forum.php

I saw where someone got it to scroll left to right marquee style... is there a way to scroll it top to bottom (like the words at the beginning of Star Wars)?

I'm going to see if i can figure out how to make it show on other forum pages as well... I have an idea......

Eq4bits 03-21-2011 07:16 AM

If you only want the top upcoming events to show to the usergroups as set in vB Settings>Options then add
Quote:

<vb:if condition="$show['upcomingevents']">
at the beginning
and
Quote:

</vb:if>
at the end

zeus_r6 03-29-2011 05:36 PM

Anybody know what the phrase would be for upcoming birthdays?

Eq4bits 03-29-2011 10:11 PM

It would have to be in a separate 'box' but this should work: (you could replace 'Birthdays' with 'Happy Birthday To:' or whatever you want ;))
PHP Code:

<!-- birthdays -->
<
div id="wgo" class="collapse wgo_block">
<
h2>
<
span>
Birthdays
</span>
</
h2>
<
div class="floatcontainer">
<
div id="wgo_events" class="wgo_subblock">
<
ol class="commalist">
{
vb:raw birthdays}
</
ol>
</
div>
</
dl>
</
div>
</
div>
<!-- 
birthdays -->

Thanks for the mod!

I tried it, but noting showed up on my main forum page... I know it should be simple and direct, but nothing is up... any idea what to do??

Thanks

grey_goose 08-27-2014 06:45 PM

anyone know how to access {vb:raw upcomingevents} ? I'd like to format it into two columns instead of one per line or using the commalist.

Eq4bits 07-06-2015 01:08 PM

Does anyone know how to change the 'order' of the events listed? I have multiple calendars that this 'pulls' events from, but I want the 'calendar2 event(s)' to show right after the normal date, and THEN events from the other 2 or 3 calendars, preferably in calendar ID# order
i.e.
07/06/2015: Calendar2 event, Calendar5 event, Calendar6 event

figured it out the 'start' time for the calendar 2 events has to be before any of the others, it's a b*&^% but i've made everything ranged properly and it's all viewing properly now.
