So is this pretty stable now? The heads at www.seattlednb.com keep bugging me about this feature.

how can i make a automatic answer to the event

I have seen a phpbb hack which is similar to this one, but it is a little bit more user friendly. The hack is called topic calendar:
http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic...ender+calendar

The difference is that you can edit any existing thread to make it a calendar event. You just edit the thread and select the date and time and the event is registered. And it is very easy to delete the event. Just delete the date/time and the threadc is not an event any more. Then it is just an ordinary thread again. The same applies for new threads. If you select a date it will be listed in the calendar, otherwise it is a forum thread only.

The problem I see is that this might have a big performance hit on large forums, since each thread needs to be checked to see if a date has been set.

What do you guys think?

event attendance would make this hack perfect

FEATURE REQUEST:


Could you please add an option for users to "check" (it would become a tally, perhaps with a list of names of those people who did "check") that they will be attending the event?

This would be extremely useful for forums used for many forum administrators who run a clan-oriented web site.

Thank you!!

For some reason events are no longer showing in the calendar for guests after installing this. They have access to the linked forum.

Anyone have any ideas?

yeah an events attendance integration would be so so great :)

It seems to be a really nice hack and will meet my wishes :D !
But I'm also waiting for the event attendance integration :cool: !

Hi everybody,

in the last hours I tried to combine your and another Hacks and I´m nearly getting mad now. I hope you can give me a little hint.

The combination is the Hack for the Event-Enrollment and this Hack.. And the weired thing is: I cannot get any Information about the Enrollments on the side where the Event is above the thread.

As far as I understand the event is always built up by the calendar_showeventsbit-Template. In this there is the line "<div>$eventinfo[event]</div>" which builts up the enrollment-fields.

This is also in the thread-overview with the event above. But it doesn´t show up. Do you have any idea or any hint about that?

Best wishes, Julian!

this was working fine, no all of a sudden, when u add events in the calendar, nothing is added to the forums ?

I haven't touched the site for a week, and it was working fine then :(

any ideas ? is there querry that i can run that will make threads for all calendar events, if they don't have a thread already ?

thank you

hmm i seem to be having the same problem ..i haven't touched a thing ...and for some of my admin and myself ...when u create an event ..a thread is not automatically created...

well now i updated to the latest version and when i post an event it tells me that i didn t specify a username :O ?

what's wierd is that it's just for some us admins ...the other can post without any problems !!

Same problem here...

exactely what i needed


https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=117875

everything seems to work great, however the first post in the thread regarding the information doesnt show up in the thread.......any ideas why?

I really need it to, because the promoters on my board will attach flyers or hotlink flyers.....thanks

Peace

EDIT: Nevermind, disabled the plugin which hides the first post......works now....

OMG this is great installing as soon as I'm done here but and I know how everyone hates to hear all the additional request but one that I feel REALLY hurts the capability of the calendar in VB is not having the ability to create a hierarchy .. In other words have a local calendar that feeds events into regional calendars and then to national calendars :).

clicking install in just a few minutes. :)

ok working great so far but one small detail that might be nice (here i go again) would be to have the ability to change the "new thread" button to something different like "create event" from the thread view.

THIS ROX MY SOX! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS

should be standard with vB

updated to vb3.6 beta two and it says 'Could not find phrase' for all the phrase parts of this hack, have checked and there all there still.

i'm not sure

but is it possible that this plugin creates following problem: whel i trie to empty search index, (which normally takes about ten seconds db: 500MB) it halts... and when i try to take a backup, it halts at the table plugin

Processing: plugin

now, i first want to ask the question, because, i might be, when i uninstall the plugin, my linked events might disappear ...

anybody ???

IMPORTANT: what tables are created inside the database by this plugin? i might want to take a back-up of these ? ...

thanks for you cooperation

FOUND A BUG!

If you create an event, then go back and try to edit the event you can edit it just fine....but when you click save you get:

Fatal error: Only variables can be passed by reference in /home/XXXXXXXX/public_html/forum/includes/class_dm_event.php(593) : eval()'d code on line 41

also if you try to delete an event it says "Please confirm your desire to delete this item by checking the "Delete" box."

but there isn't a delete box

lol

i got an error message today when i wanted to post a new event.
it said: "you didn't specify a username.please go back and specify one"

does anyone know why this is and how to fix it?

Im having the same problem. Help please.

Well guys, I found out a way for my problem.

I have installed Adv. Editing Options for Mods and Admins and this hack conflicts with a lot of hack i have, for example vB Event Forums.

What you need to do is the following (All credits go to Paul M, i just added a line so it works with vB Events Forum):

Go to the Plugin Manager and look for the 'init_startup' hook inside the "Adv. Editing Options for Mods and Admins" Category.

Find:
Add below it ;:

Hope it works. Worked for me.

jea thx for the fast help
it works fine

I don?t know how many times i installed and uninstalled this modification!

Thanks for this solution, guys! Works for me too!

this been ported for 3.6 yet ?

Any way of allowing attachments to be posted when an event is being published? I really need attachments. I cant use this hack without them.

Thank you.

bump....any word on adding "event attendance" functionality?

Is there any way to get the "Upcoming Events for the Next X Days" section on the event forum to be displayed by event instead of by date?

Thanks in advance...

waaaaaaaaaaaw,

thanks alot.

I was serching for something like that...

will it work with 3.6?

i installed this to 3.6 and didnt work.

installed and works like a charm on my site, 3.5.2

One thing I noticed though is that in my events forum, it displays the upcoming events twice. Not sure why.
http://www.mifbody.com/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=67 to see what I mean. Should I just switch it over to being a variable instead?

It didn't work very well with 3.6. Missing some phrases, other funny behavior.

A strong suggestion for a feature (based on 5 minutes of use) I think a drop-down select for choosing the type of event (Single/Ranged/Recurring) would be very smart, as would some customization over the display of the date... I tried to post a multi-day event and it was throwing in the full date and time and taking up a huge amount of space. Making use of php's date() function syntax would be great for this. Good luck on the future development, and I hope it gets to the point where I could feel comfortable using it.

Well since this hack is very important to my site i cannot upgrade to 3.6 yet.

First off thank you, this is an amazing hack. I have a single yet cruical question, can I remove the New Tread link the creates a Calender entry. I ask this question because, I want to use the forum for general posts too. So what I'm asking is there a way to restore in the Forum the Create New Thread Forum button to it's original thread creation link state?

Otherwise I have to create 50 more forums and that wont be good at all :(.

HELP.....

How did you do it?

Please share, I have the same problem and I don't see where it's over writing it.

I have had this hack installed for awhile now and noticed that when I create an new event my event title looks like this

mysite 2006 something-Swap (My site (www.myforumboard.com), aaaaa@paypal.com, Eagle Crest Conference Ypsilanti Township, Mi, Yes, xxxxxx@paypal.com): 08-19-2006


Why is it creating such a large title? you can see what I mean if you go here
http://www.xxx.com/forums/showthread...227#post260227

Works fine in 3.6 just none of the phrases work.
