If your site uses the calendar feature, you may want to better publicize events on the forumhome. The default location of the "What's going on?" box is all the way at the bottom of forumhome and is pretty easy to never even see.

So, if you'd like to put another copy of the upcoming events and the day's birthdays at the top of the forums:

First, find your FORUMHOME template.

Go to:
AdminCP > Styles & Templates > Search in Templates > input FORUMHOME & search titles only > edit

Find:
Code:
<!-- / guest welcome message -->
<br />
</if>
Just below that add:
Code:
<!-- what's going on box -->
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">


<if condition="$show['birthdays']">
<!-- today's birthdays -->
<tbody>
	<tr>
		<td class="thead" colspan="2">
			<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_birthdays')"><img id="collapseimg_forumhome_birthdays" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_thead$vbcollapse[collapseimg_forumhome_birthdays].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
			$vbphrase[todays_birthdays]
		</td>
	</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumhome_birthdays" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_forumhome_birthdays]">
	<tr>
		<td class="alt2"><a href="calendar.php?$session[sessionurl]do=getday&amp;day=$today&amp;sb=1"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/birthday.gif" alt="$vbphrase[view_birthdays]" border="0" /></a></td>
		<td class="alt1" width="100%"><div class="smallfont">$birthdays</div></td>
	</tr>
</tbody>
<!-- end today's birthdays -->
</if>
<if condition="$show['upcomingevents']">
<tbody>
	<tr>
		<td class="thead" colspan="2">
			<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_events')"><img id="collapseimg_forumhome_events" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_thead$vbcollapse[collapseimg_forumhome_events].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
			<if condition="$show['todaysevents']">$vbphrase[todays_events]<else /><phrase 1="$vboptions[showevents]">$vbphrase[upcoming_events_for_the_next_x_days]</phrase></if>
		</td>
	</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumhome_events" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_forumhome_events]">
	<tr>
		<td class="alt2"><a href="calendar.php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/calendar.gif" alt="$vbphrase[calendar]" border="0" /></a></td>
		<td class="alt1" width="100%"><div class="smallfont">$upcomingevents</div></td>
	</tr>
</tbody>
</if>
</table>
<!-- end what's going on box -->
<br />



If want just the upcoming events without the birthdays, then use this:
Code:
<!-- what's going on box -->
<if condition="$show['upcomingevents']">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

<tbody>
	<tr>
		<td class="thead" colspan="2">
			<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_events')"><img id="collapseimg_forumhome_events" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_thead$vbcollapse[collapseimg_forumhome_events].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
			<if condition="$show['todaysevents']">$vbphrase[todays_events]<else /><phrase 1="$vboptions[showevents]">$vbphrase[upcoming_events_for_the_next_x_days]</phrase></if>
		</td>
	</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumhome_events" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_forumhome_events]">
	<tr>
		<td class="alt2"><a href="calendar.php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/calendar.gif" alt="$vbphrase[calendar]" border="0" /></a></td>
		<td class="alt1" width="100%"><div class="smallfont">$upcomingevents</div></td>
	</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</if>
<!-- end what's going on box -->
<br />



In both of these examples, I've removed the header that says "What's Going On?". If you'd rather have that, then do this:

After:
Code:
<!-- what's going on box -->
Put:
Code:
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<thead>
	<tr>
		<td class="tcat" colspan="2">$vbphrase[whats_going_on]</td>
	</tr>
</thead>
Save the template and you're done.

If you'd like to just change this one instance, you can just change the text here:

Code:
		<td class="tcat" colspan="2">$vbphrase[whats_going_on]</td>
If you change the "whats_going_on" phrase, it would be changed throughout your fourms.

I'd imagine that you could just create a template module for vBa and add the code to the module.

Is it possible to change the code so it only displays events from a certain calendar?

He answered above, try page 1 (just change calendar id# in code)



My question is:
Why did it drag my Xboxlive leaderboard to the top with it..?
