Calendar - Additional Events

[BabyU]

I'm trying to create an additional calendar event specifically to show scheduled Chats. I want the chats to appear in a different style and also to be able to pull them over to the index page.

So far, I've accomplished all of this. My only problem is that I can't add a new Chat event. I have to go through phpMyAdmin and edit an existing event in the calendar_event table.

I've attached my calendar.php file for anyone that feels the urge to take a look. In the Public field of the calendar_events table, I have used public=3 to indicate a chat (with public=0 for public and public=1 for private).

I added templates called calendar_chatevent and calendar_chateventbutton. Everything works fine thus far. I can see my chat events in a different color and was able to pull them over to my index page via Mister's hack found at http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...threadid=21232 .

The only problem is that I can not add a chat event directly from the calendar. I can only edit one through phpMyAdmin. I'm assuming that I'm overlooking something in the calendar.php file, but where do I indicate Public=3 for a chat? I still need to actually add the button to the template, but I didn't see any point until I figured out how to dictate that this particular button is for a chat event.

I've been staring at this all day, so if I'm not making sense, I apologize. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to add an event other than public or private? Thank you in advance for any advice!

Here is what I have so far:
