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.

Hello,

On my Site the "Reply" Button don't works in this Add-On.

[Kiint]

I've been using this mod on several versions of Vb and it's working fine, currently working on v 4.1.12 of Vbulletin.

I have one question about the templates though, The calendar part which shows the details of the event are using the style of the website, just like a forum post, but the rsvp part of the event has a transparent background and doesn't follow the style of the table above it, which has a small image as the background.

Is it possible to change the background on the rsvp part to match that of the event above it? If so, where do I change it, and how?

Also, would it be possible to add a separating line above the event rsvp to match the surrounding box above, so that each section is separate. You will see what I mean from the image.

Thanks

[Kiint]

Any assistance would be great

EDIT: Disabling the mod stops teh problem ....

I've got the same problem, clicking on any day with more than 1 event will cause this error, disabling the mod makes this problem go away, but I want the mod to work without this error. Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this.?


Been searching on google for this same error and have found several sites with this mod that are getting the same errors on their calendars for multiple events on the same day.

Greetings! I haven't installed this mod yet, but it looks like it could be very useful. I just have one question. Is there any way to display the folks who have RSVP'd for a specific event in a specific forum thread? I know there is another mod out there that works with this one that creates a new thread in a specific forum when a calendar event is posted. Could the RSVP's be displayed in that thread?

Our current message boards (not running vBulletin) had the ability for members of the site to RSVP for something right at the top of a thread, just like a poll. I'm looking for similar functionality here, but any searches for RSVP point me to this mod.

Thank you all!

Anyone have any ideas on this. I've been searching the templates and testing things out but don't have the knowledge to fix this.

I've installed this mod, and when creating events on the calendar i can flag it as allowing rsvp, however on the event screen thereafter there is no option to respond to the event, is there something that needs to be added to the template that isnt documented?

How about a screenshot of what you have or a link if it's visible to guests.

[Kiint]

Did you follow the 2nd stage of the installation, after you install the xml file? And did you do it on the current style you are using?

[Merlok]

I have installed your mod, but I do not see any options in my calendar entries to participate in a meeting or to not participate.
I also do not see the comments field and who already has decided to participate.

Can anyone help me with this?

Edit:
Damn it.... I forgot the 2nd step.... It's solved.

Has anyone using this upgraded to 4.20?
