Farcaster's Event Attendance v3 (for vb4)
 

This modification will allow your members to RSVP to events on the vBulletin calendar. By default, members can respond "Yes," "No," or "Maybe," as to whether or not they will be able to attend an event, but you can modify or add to the list of responses members are presented with as you desire.

Features

• Specify some or all of your calendars to use the RSVP system.
• Set whether an event accepts RSVPs during event creation / edit.
• Allow members to specify if they will be bringing a guest.
• Event owners can set the maximum number of guests each member may bring.
• Events can be set to close RSVPs on the day of the event or before.
• RSVP comments (up to 65k character limit, configurable)
• Timestamped RSVPs
• Moderators and event owners can remove member RSVPs from events.
• Attendance list can be set to display member avatars.
• Improved handling of differing timezones and daylight saving times.
• Configurable Response options. You aren't stuck with Yes, No, Maybe. You can setup whatever responses you want.
• Ability to specify a maximum number of attendees for an event. After the maximum is reached, you can configure members to either receive an error or have their response (RSVP) automatically changed to something else. This could be used to create a wait-list bucket, for instance.

Requirements
vBulletin v4.0.0 or higher.

Cool. Been waiting for this one! Will install tomorrow. Thanks Farcaster. You just made a forum very happy indeed!

You sir, just made my life easier :) Installed and nominated!

I have a problem... it says RSVPs are closed? I have a RE-OCCURING event that occurs each 2 weeks. here: http://www.brotherhoodofgamers.com/c...day=2009-11-29

It says the rsvps are closed, i set to allow rsvps and maximum is 20 and i left it 0 for the time to close the rsvp before event starts... does this need to be fixed in the addon itself or is this something with my site or did i do something wrong?

Thanks.

That is probably because you have selected the day of the recurring event to be November 29th, 2009. You should navigate in your calendar to an occurrence of the event that is on or after the current day.

Thanks! Let me know if you run into any problems. :)

Fantastic! I'm sure this was a painful upgrade (4.0 makes me hate { and }), thanks so much for getting this out so quickly. Looks great.

can we delete Tentative , No & Guest parts from this mod ?

if possible pls guide us little

You can configure the list of responses, yes. I'll write up a FAQ for how to do that.

Well I edited a day that is coming up in like a couple of days. So not sure what exactly you mean or I did wrong.

Thanks.
