Social Group Calendars
 
1 Attachment(s)
In short, this modification will allow social groups on your forum have their own calendar area and have upcoming events shown on their group page. Here is a list of features:
  1. Upcoming events for a group are shown on the group's page, grouped by day.
  2. The group's next event is shown in more detail and can be configured to show the entire event description or be trimmed to a certain number of characters.
  3. Members can see events for all the social groups they belong to consolidated into one calendar.
  4. The forum home index page can be setup to show upcoming events for social groups.
  5. Non-members can see upcoming events for a public group by viewing the group's page. They will not see events for these groups in the calendar view or on the forum homepage, which will help keep the clutter down.
  6. Group's that are moderated, invite only, or must join to view content, will not display their upcoming events to non-members. Their events are also secured, so following a link to an event by a non-member will result in a no permissions error.
  7. Group owners can optionally allow members to be able to post events, or they can set their group up so that only they can post events.
  8. When clicking on the New Event link from the group's page, the event will automatically be assigned to the referring group.
  9. When creating a new event from the calendar view, the creator can assign the event to any group he has permissions to post events. These events will appear in a drop down box on the event.
  10. Admins and moderators can be set to be excluded from all filtering and permissions. This allows the administrator an unfiltered view of the social group calendar, and the ability to move or edit group's events as needed.
  11. Plays nice with Farcaster's Event Attendance v2.0 (RSVP mod).

Unfortunately, vBulletin lacks some hooks in key places for events, such as hooks to the event SQL statements. This means that there are a number of file edits needed for this modification. Sorry for that, but I hope it will be worth it! Enjoy!

Step One – Backup Your Database and vBulletin Files!
This really needs to be said, especially since this version is in BETA. Loss of data/time/business is not the responsibility of the developer. Use at your own risk.

Step Two – Import the Product File
In the Admin CP, import rah_socialgroup_calendars_1_0_0.xml.

Step Three – Edit vBulletin File: includes/functions_calendar.php
Note: If you do not want to have Social Group Events show up in the upcoming events section on your forum homepage, then you only need do steps 1 through 7 in this section.

1. Find the first instance of (in function cache_events, near the beginning of the file):

PHP Code:

    $events $vbulletin->db->query_read_slave("
        SELECT event.*, 

2. Above that add:

PHP Code:

// Social Group Calendar **************************************************
 
    // Exempt administrators and other designated groups.
    
$exemptgroups explode(',',str_replace(' ','',$vbulletin->options['rah_socialcal_admins'])); 
 
    if (
is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo,$exemptgroups)) {
        
$exemptsql " OR 1=1 ";
    }    
    if (
$vbulletin->userinfo['userid']) {
        
$eventjoin "     LEFT JOIN ".TABLE_PREFIX."socialgroupmember sgm ON sgm.userid = 0".$vbulletin->userinfo['userid']." AND sgm.groupid = event.socialgroupcalendar 
                        LEFT JOIN (SELECT groupid, name FROM "
.TABLE_PREFIX."socialgroup) sg ON sg.groupid = event.socialgroupcalendar";
        
$eventwhere " AND (event.socialgroupcalendar = 0 OR sgm.groupid IS NOT NULL $exemptsql) ";
        
$eventselect " sg.name as socialgroupname, ";
    }
 
    
// Social Group Calendar END *********************************************** 

3. Scroll back down and after the comma in “SELECT event.*,” add:

PHP Code:

$eventselect 

4. Scroll down about five lines to find:
PHP Code:

        LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user AS user ON (user.userid event.userid

5. Below that add:
PHP Code:

$eventjoin 

6. Scroll down about four lines to find:
PHP Code:

            visible 

7. Below that add:
PHP Code:

$eventwhere 

8. Find the following (in function build_events, near the end of the file):

PHP Code:

    $events $vbulletin->db->query_read_slave("
        SELECT eventid, userid, event.title, recurring, recuroption, dateline_from, dateline_to, event.calendarid, IF (dateline_to = 0, 1, 0) AS singleday, customfields,
            dateline_from AS dateline_from_user, dateline_to AS dateline_to_user, utc, dst 

9. Above that add:
PHP Code:

    // Social Group Calendar **************************************************
    
$eventjoin "     LEFT JOIN (SELECT groupid, name FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."socialgroup) sg ON sg.groupid = event.socialgroupcalendar ";
    
$eventselect ", event.socialgroupcalendar, sg.name as socialgroupname ";
    
// Social Group Calendar END *********************************************** 

10. After “dateline_to AS dateline_to_user, utc, dst”, add:
PHP Code:

$eventselect 

11. Scroll down about two lines and find:
PHP Code:

        INNER JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "calendar AS calendar USING (calendarid

12. Below that add:
PHP Code:

$eventjoin 

Step Four – Edit vBulletin File: index.php
Note: If you do not want to have Social Group Events show up in the upcoming events section on your forum homepage, you can skip this section entirely. Keep in mind though that if you do have your calendar options set to show events from the calendar that social group events will be posted to, the list will not be filtered and everyone will see them.

1. Find the following:
PHP Code:

// ### TODAY'S EVENTS #################################################
if ($vbulletin->options['showevents'])


2. Below that add:
PHP Code:

// Social Group Calendar **************************************************
// Get Social Group Memberships    
$usersocialgroups = array();    
if (
$vbulletin->userinfo['userid']) {
 
    
$getsocialgroups $vbulletin->db->query_read_slave("
    SELECT groupid 
    FROM "
.TABLE_PREFIX."socialgroupmember sgm 
    WHERE sgm.userid = "
.intval($vbulletin->userinfo['userid']));
 
    while (
$group $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($getsocialgroups)) {
        
$usersocialgroups[]=$group['groupid'];
 
    }        
}
 
// Exempt administrators and other designated groups.
$exemptgroups explode(',',str_replace(' ','',$vbulletin->options['rah_socialcal_admins']));     
 
if (
is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo,$exemptgroups)) {
    
$exempt true;
}
// Social Group Calendar END *********************************************** 

3. Find the following:
PHP Code:

        {
            
$sub $eventinfo['dateline_from_user'] - (86400 * (intval($eventinfo['dateline_from_user'] / 86400)));
        } 

4. Below that add:
PHP Code:

        // Social Group Calendar **********************************************
        
$filterevent false;
        if (
$eventinfo['socialgroupcalendar'] AND !in_array($eventinfo['socialgroupcalendar'],$usersocialgroups)) {
            
// This is a social group event, and this is not a member.  Suppress the event
            
$filterevent true;
        }
 
        
// Add exception for admins and other designated groups.
        
if ($exempt) {
            
$filterevent false;
        }
 
        
// Add social group name to event title.
        
if ($eventinfo['socialgroupcalendar']) {
            
$eventstore[$eventinfo[eventid]]['title'] = "<font style=\"font-weight:bold\">[$eventinfo[socialgroupname]]</font> $eventinfo[title]";
        }        
        
// Social Group Calendar END ******************************************* 

5. Immediately below the code you just entered, find:
PHP Code:

        if ($vbulletin->userinfo['calendarpermissions']["$eventinfo[calendarid]"] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_calendarpermissions['canviewcalendar'] OR ($eventinfo['holidayid'] AND $vbulletin->options['showholidays']))
        { 

6. Replace with:
PHP Code:

        // Edited from original for Social Group Calendar
        
if (!$filterevent AND $vbulletin->userinfo['calendarpermissions']["$eventinfo[calendarid]"] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_calendarpermissions['canviewcalendar'] OR ($eventinfo['holidayid'] AND $vbulletin->options['showholidays']))
        { 

Step Five – Upload Files
Upload the modified files to the appropriate directory in your forum.

Step Six – Edit Template: socialgroups_form
1. Find the following:
HTML Code:

<legend>$vbphrase[group_options]</legend>
<div class="smallfont">

2. Below that add:
HTML Code:

<div>
    <label for="member_entered_events"><input type="checkbox" name="member_entered_events" id="member_entered_events" value="1" $checked[member_entered_events]/> $vbphrase[member_entered_events]</label>
</div>

Step Seven – Edit Template: socialgroups_group
Note: If you’re trying to install this on version 3.7.x, the section you put the variable in will be different. Try putting it above <!--pictures--> for instance, and then adjust to be located where you want.

1. Find the following:
HTML Code:

    </div><br />
</if>
 
 
<!-- Discussions -->

2. Above that add:
HTML Code:

$socialgroups_events
Step Eight – Configuration
In the Admin CP, go into vBulletin Options -> Social Group Calendar. Set the options as desired. The product will not start working until a calendar ID is entered in this section. Make sure to configure the calendar selected to allow members to post events.

Farcaster 01-28-2009 09:15 AM

I have confirmed this to be working on vBulletin version 3.8.1. I assume that it will also work with version 3.7.x. If someone installs it on that version, please confirm if it works appropriately.

Vaupell 01-28-2009 09:34 AM

Lovely, i simply dont understand why this wasent a standard feature..

tx.. :up: :up: :up: :up: :up:

Farcaster 01-28-2009 12:41 PM

I don't either. The calendar is truly a bit underdeveloped, and the idea of events goes very well with social groups...

You are right.

Trek 01-28-2009 05:09 PM

Going to install this now, I think this will do what I've been looking for. =)

Trek 01-28-2009 05:16 PM

Ok, one question. Is there any way (with this mod or something else) to automatically assign someone to a social group? I hope so, or my idea is dead before it gets started. heh

I guess what I'm looking for is social groups based on user group. Or if that's not possible, the ability to automatically give someone access to a social group when they are added to a specific user group.

No, I'm afraid this mod doesn't do that. Nor do I know of one that does.

Bummer... I think this mod will do everything I need other than the auto adding to the social group. I'll do that manually I suppose until figure out something else.

Maybe I'll just write a query that adds everyone in a usergroup to a social group every night on a cron... that should work, but not really the cleanest way to go about it.

With that, this mod and your RSVP mod, I think everything I need to accomplish will work. Thanks!
