Well it appears this is not working for me, I had a re-occuring event, and the event just passed this saturday, yet no threads were made about it in the forums.
This probably hasn't been answered yet as I skimmed through the posts, sorry if it has, I have overlooked it then.
How does this addon exactly work in terms of timing? Like, how many days or hours or w/e before the event time does it post it on the forums? And how can we configure this? This is for both re-occuring events and non re-occuring events.
Thanks.

I do not plan to change how that works either.

And can you please implement the feature so that old events get locked, and new events (even if re-occuring) are posted again in the forum?

What do you not understand it makes the thread as soon as you post the event!!!!!
When you post a event it post both a thread and an event. Did we not go through this already? I am starting to not support my mods because of people like you. You can't read. Whats the problem you were told several times how this works.
I do not think I will release another mod here on vbulletin.org. People are ungrateful, They do not appreciate the work that goes in to a free mod, They do not appreciate free support. People act like I get paid to do this, The truth is I haven't got one penny for any thing.

Some people are ungrateful; however, I have benefited greatly from over 100 different mods since I've been using VB.org back at the beginning of vB3 and I have used some of your mods (Useful links, vB Event Forums, Google Analytics, and your article on vB4 conditionals) and appreciate the time spent by all of the great developers (you, Lynne, Paul M, Valter (cyb), vBDev, along with other countless developers)
I would be send money but Paypal is not happy with me (I have been working with them on restoring full access to my Paypal for months now, but their customer service and those teams are very slow)
The hell no I never said it is not unappreciated. The thing is... we have a bunch of events which are re-occuring that we posted on our calendar months before installing this.
All I'm asking is how to make those events start appearing on forums WITHOUT re-adding them, and I'm sure there is a way to do this.
And really to tell you the truth, what you posted is really offensive.
I will look when I have time, My currect mindset is to help my family dig out. We have to clean off flat roofs and what not. Buildings are collapsing from the weight of the snow. Roads are still not plowed.
These mods are the least of my worries.
I don't miss Maryland winters at all! :down:
Digging out my car only to be plowed in with frozen snow.
BTW, your mod is a big part of one of my sites. Thanks! :up:

Please don't think your work goes unappreciated.
Thanks for the words, its great to see you use several of my mods. Please do not think I am asking for money. That is not why I do what I do.

There is no way to tie old events into it. I told you this several times. It will only work with new events. There is two pages of you asking this same question. If you are so sure there is a way to do it then be my guest and do it for your site. I have no intentions of adding that kind of support. This only ties them together when you press submit.

Your telling me if you can handle the Maryland weather you can live anywhere. The worst of winters and the worst of summers with tons of rain to go with it.
<span style="text-decoration: line-through">Bug report: Regular calendar events (before vB Event Forums) showed the user's avatar. In vB Events Forums - the avatar is set to the default avatar instead of the user's avatar.</span>
Edit: Just kidding, searched for the missing avatar after I posted what I observed. JUST KIDDING!
Ok, I am not sure if this mod is to blame, but I am now receiving a new "vBulletin Database Error!".
When a new calendar event is created, the mod creates a new thread in a forum, as the mod is designed to do. However, the forum is moderated and new threads require approval.
When a new event is created, I receive two emails. The first is the error email (see below). And the second is the new thread notification, which is normal. Here is the error:
PHP Code:
Database error in vBulletin 4.0.1:
Invalid SQL:
DELETE FROM vb_moderation WHERE type = 'thread' AND threadid = 43476;
MySQL Error : Unknown column 'threadid' in 'where clause' Error Number : 1054 Request Date : Thursday, February 11th 2010 @ 12:21:57 AM Error Date : Thursday, February 11th 2010 @ 12:21:57 AM Script : http://www.allbowling.com/forum/calendar.php?do=update&e= Referrer : http://www.allbowling.com/forum/calendar.php?do=add&type=single&c=1 IP Address : [userip] Username : [username] Classname : vB_Database MySQL Version :
Does anyone have this mod installed where the target forum requires moderation? Can anyone duplicate this?
Bug: Admins and supermods have FULL rights to move/edit events, however, thread creaters (who had FULL access to edit their own threads because the events are always changing [raves, go figure]) as well as full abilities to edit their calendar events CANNOT edit the event. this is stressing out a lot of the promoters and I sadly just saw this. Thread creators cannot edit their own threads/event, but admins/supermods can (not sure on the "just mods", i hate them anyway)
Please help
Clarification: They can EDIT if they use the right URL (which they don't know) but there is no button for them to click on to edit.
Edit 3: Can go to previous calendar events that WERE created by them that don't have threads anymore (due to uninstall of previous mod and installation of new) and they can edit those.
