I have no idea if this is even possible or useful to most forums, but here goes...

Background: I am currently setting a forum up for our local homeschool group, which is very large (250+ families). I feel that we really need to have four separate events forums linked to four separate calendars: "Group Events", "Local Events, Exhibits, and Attractions", "Ongoing Classes and Sports Programs", and "Homeschool Vacations". We have enough activities to warrant this, but, I am afraid it might get confusing going back and forth from calendar to calendar. On the other hand, if we just have one calendar, seeing all the information together could be overwhelming.

So, I am wondering if there is some way to write a hack that would allow the user to layer various calendars of their choosing. Even if it was just one option to see all calendars overlaid at once, that would be helpful. I would really like the members to have the ability to view the calendars in the way that is most useful to them.

Does this make any sense? And is it possible to write something that would do this?

If so, any takers?

This queston was asked few month back then and would had wish enableing this as option when creating any forum or sub forum as or with a radio button that would give in that forum itself a view of incomming events followed in as a calendar or to create such calendars yet I believe vBuletin programmers and affiliate are more into spinning avatars as MBM ( Mario Brother Mentality) and galerias then creating or incorporating the real means of a forum group ... It is so sad to see that we the one purchasing there licencing need to pay more from a third party to get thoses results fix or added on directly inside a specific forum page

yet for time being are other options for making more then one calender but is a novice presentation and need to switch regular from one to others guess one day some other forum company will include such AddOn and vBuletin might follow up then ... cross fingures that one day it will become possible

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
