Calendar Enhancements - 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.

I get the same problem... I installed a new style, editted the calendar_showeventsbit and now get this:
"Will you be able to attend on %1$s?"

and when people rsvp, this is posted next to their name: {rsvp:var rsvp.comment}

Was working great but now that I have added BBR - vB Event Forums when you click on an event it takes you directly to the thread instead of allowing members to RSVP. When I disable BBR - vB Event Forums then you can RSVP.

Any ideas?

They're both working for me in 4.0.2, which version are you using? I did just find out that with both BBR - vB Event Forums and Farcasters RSVP that members do not receive notifications of new posts to the thread. I'm not sure why it's happening, anyone experience this?

I am using 4.0.3. I just read your post on the events thread and now I suspect it may because I am using this version.

How Can I add upcoming events in the next 30 days under forum here's a picture, so the events would be posted onto a forum board and like this.
