Peace

Great stuff....
In conjucjtion with the RSVP script its totally brilliant.

ragtek, which plugin would this be added to and would you be so kind as to provide instructions or should I ask at Advanced editing Mods plugin?

However I can't live without Adv. Editing Options for Mods and Admins ( which is only applied to threads, not the calendar). :(

I was wounding if anyone knew how to run the Thread create portion of the vb forums stand alone? Editing and saving each event that was added before this was installed is a pain. I need a way to mass create all the accosiated threads by executing a script to create the thread part of the code product. Maybe check to see if event occurs int he next 30 days from today to prevent flooding. HELP please.

Hi all, I just want to apologise for the lack of updates on this. I've been very busy with work and other projects, and time for this project has unfortunatly been reduced to nil at present.

Unfortunatly I can't really say when I will be able to dedicate time to some of the requested features/issues, but when I do i'll be sure to let you know.

I get two entries on the same showthread page.

http://www.sporthoj.com/forum/showthread.php?t=146213

How come?

this mod set up fine, but when any members clicks on the new event button it say they do not have permission to view, but all setting ssay they do, anyone have any ideas on what to do here?

Mark,

They need to have permission to create calendar events.

Anyway, any other product would have been an immediate uninstall. However this rocks too much. Installing this mod pushed my showthread queries up from 12 to 43. I'm going to have to rewrite all your plugins tomorrow to get it to only use the original 12...

Version 3.3.1 i guess

So Crazy Serb, how did you make out? I solved half the problem by intercepting all new events made from forum add event button, simply by executing the event forum redirect script after the buy event new_thread_start (made it number 6).

I am curious to know if you managed to control it via calendar add?

In fact, it's even easier than I thought. We have the mapping in the vb options for event forum. Like 2:254 where 2 is the calendar id and 254 is the forum. So before adding an event in the calendar, if the calendar id matches the calendar id in the options, then we do a query for that forumid to see if it is active for buy thread. If it is, then we plugin an error telling them that this method is not allowed, that they should add the event from the forum and provide them a link to do so, since we have the forumid. And we let the buythread handle it with the method described in previous thread.

We would practically be disabling adding event directly from calendar.

Version 3.3.1 i guess

I see absolutely no difference in the code for the plugin that addresses. Likewise I don't see any XSS issues. Then again maybe I had 3.3.1 installed and just can't tell because you didn't update the version number in the 3.3.1 product :confused:

I went along a different route...

Created a 1-day long membership for people who wanted to post a thread (and they have 24 hours to post that thread), and then I created a year long membership for those who wanted the ability to post unlimited threads (for a higher price, of course), and that sort of took care of the problem...

It would be really nice if we could add attachments to events. Right now I have to do it manually in the database.

yes that would be great

I managed to pull this off on my installation for forum events. However it requires a lot of template edits as well as a file edit. Anyone interested?

Definitely interested

I'm desparate to get this to show up on the forumhome page. Not sure how to get it right. Can anyone help?

You can see the difference on events displayed on the forumhome www.napadanceclub.com as compared to the events forum--which has repeating events: http://www.napadanceclub.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=6

In order to add attachments to your forum events (once the event is posted):

Create new plugin.

I think that's everything I did. In order to add attachments at the same time you create the event a LOT more edits were necessary and I didn't have the patience for it. Adding them after creation was good enough for me.

I second that!!! That would be a nice feature add.

i have the same issue

the New Events wont show up after following the instructions

There's a setting for this:

Show the New Event button on the thread list.
Setting this to no will change the New Thread button to forward the user to the add event form.

Setting this to yes will add a New Event button, ONLY if you have also added the necessary template modification in FORUMDISPLAY. See the installation instructions for more information.

Is it set to yes?

I can only get it to show in mine if I have the Summary of events set to yes. I have updated the template to allow it to show but it does not....even when the setting is set to Yes, while the Summary option is set to no.

PHP Code:


		
			
if(($lv_vb_eventforums_showSummaryThisThread) && ($lv_vb_eventforums_thisCalendar > 0))

I am thinking then that what you were experiencing was intentional on the coder's behalf.

I was trying to change the display of the thread title in the forum display and accomplished that. I updated it by updating the product-lv_vb_eventforums_v3_3.xml file and installing it with "Allow Overwrite" set to Yes.

After my update, the thread title is showing up twice in the thread view (if that's the right term). I've attached an image of what is going on.

If anyone can tell me what went wrong and how to fix it, I would certainly appreciate it. I tested this change on my test forum, but didn't notice the duplication until I had applied it to my live forum. :o

Check your postbit_display_start hook for Hide the first post on Event Threads. It seems like the first post is not being hidden, and since it's still the firstpostid, would be still be using the showeventsbit template over the regular postbit.

Thanks for the response.

Okay, I found the hook and it's active. I tried rolling back the software in my test forum and it still shows double.

Looking at the content now.

Update: it's definitely getting in that inner condition that does: $this->templatename = '';
Update 2: somehow, Display Event Details on Thread Page/showthread_complete got turned on, while the event attendance/event forum integration actually turns it off. So I'm not sure how I messed it up, but it seems fine now.

thincom2000, thanks for getting me started on this.

You had two copies of the showthread_complete plugin? I thought the integration removes the original too, but I'm glad you solved it.

I love this hack and it works perfectly.

However can i set the date different in the forum message events and upcoming events ? Im from the UK and we use dd/mm/yy instead of mm/dd/yy and its causing some users confusion. Better still would be to use real dates say 23 March 2007 etc

Also is there a way to clean up the upcoming events block. We likely have 10 or so events in a day and it looks messy all being on the one line.

Any help on either of these appreciated.

This event mod requires almost 60 queries from the server. Not sure why

Here is a link, look at the bottom where I have vbMicrostat installed
http://www.quantnet.org/forum/showthread.php?t=955

Does anyone know if I could incorporate this hack with the form hack here:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=126676

Instead of people being able to post whatever they wanted in the new event, I'd like to use a form instead so every event is uniform and allows people to search for certain characteristics within an event.

I noticed this also. To get around it, I ended up re-coding & hardcoding a number of the plugins. Now my showthread queries are 14. I still need to work on forumdisplay which is still about 7 queries above normal (right now 24 as opposed to 17).

I think the author need to optimize his code.
please share your fix.

this and Farcaster's Event Attendance & Event Forums Add-On. Not sure which one calls the rsvp plugin but they are related and you have to disable both of them,

When I try delete from Thread Options I recieve the following error:
Invalid Event specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator

When I try to delete from forum display "Moderation" I recieve this following error (Please note with soft or Physically remove)

Code:

Fatal error: Existing data passed is not an array

anyone figure out why deleting doesnt work

Anyone know if this is limited to one forum ? Or can I set the IDs to multiple forums ?
