Event attendance

Request by: DaveLogic

With this hack when you create an event you can give the users an option to "register" to the event. Then you can view which people have registered to that event.

This could be used so you create an event and then other people notify that they will be attending to the event. You can then keep track of all the people that would be attending each event.

Info for hackers:
You may modify, improve, upgrade, redistribute this hack, include it
in another hack or yours or translate it provided you do it free of
charge and you distribute it in www.vbulletin.org at least, there is no
need to pm me asking for permission

I had the same question. I installed it this morning and replaced both. For me, it works. I really wish people could add the number of guests they are brinigng.

[speedracer68]

I too have the same question.

I have users who might bring a girlfriend or wife (or both ) to an event - but there isnt a way to indicate that they are bringing extras.

[FleaBag]

Wow, I'd never even thought of this before! Sweet...

[robert_2004]

i've been using for quite some time now, and love it.

Having some issues.

When I try to add the hacks to the calendar.php, it is not finding a few of the things you list.

What am I doing wrong? This file has never been touched before, I am using V 3.0.7.

Any ideas?

[Sarvoth]

I just noticed the version for this hack Is lower then the recent one.

Any idea if this will ever be updated? Thanks in advance

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Just searched in a clean 3.0.7 calendar.php for the:

PHP Code:

eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('calendar_edit') . '");'); 


and i can even find it twice.

[Creed]

Is it possible this could be modified to keep track of who does show up at the events? So we have a list of people who did attend, and the people who were no-shows? This would be awesome for my site, as we have gaming events.

Yea, I just coded this up for another board. Here you go:

calendar_roll template:

Find

PHP Code:

<else />
[<a href="calendar.php?$session[sessionurl]do=attend&e=$eventinfo[eventid]">I will be attending this event</a>]
</if> 


Replace with

PHP Code:

<else />
<form action="calendar.php" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="do" value="attend" />
<input type="hidden" name="e" value="$eventinfo[eventid]" />
[I will be attending this event with <input type="text" name="guests" value="0" size=3 /> guests. <input type="submit" value="Submit" />]
</form>
</if> 


calendar.php:

Find

PHP Code:

$roll[$bbuserinfo['userid']] = $bbuserinfo['username']; 


Replace with

PHP Code:

$info = $bbuserinfo['username'];
$guests = intval( $_REQUEST['guests']);
if (1 == $guests)
$info .= ' (' . $guests . ' guest)';
else if ($guests > 0)
$info .= ' (' . $guests . ' guests)';
$roll[$bbuserinfo['userid']] = $info;
