Add-On Releases - Farcaster's Event Attendance & vb Event Forums Integration

This is an add-on to the vB Event Forums hack by Evercraft that will allow it to work with Farcaster's Event Attendance. This hack disables two of the Event Forum plugins and adds two integrated versions of the plugins in their place.

Prerequisites:

• Farcaster's Event Attendance 1.2.0
• vB Event Forums 3.3

Installation Instructions:
- 1 XML upload

1. Use the Product Manager to import the product file product-rah_rsvp_forums_addon_1_1_1.xml

Upgrade Instructions:
1. Use the Product Manager to import the product file product-rah_rsvp_forums_addon_1_1_1.xml and allow overwrites.

Uninstallation Instructions:

1. Uninstall the Product.
2. If Event Forums are installed, re-enable the following two plugins:

• Display Event Details on Thread Page
• redirect links to individual events to their threads instead

Revision Log:
1.0.0 - Initial Release
1.0.1 - A bug that occured on some boards which caused incorrect dates to display on the RSVP form has been resolved.

1.1.1 - 07/13/07 - Bug Fix - Corrected fetch_phrase query problem that was causing excessive amounts of queries to be added to the showthread display.

Any ideas anyone? Farcaster I would be happy to pay you for your time if this can work. We have rides coming this spring and it would be great to have this feature.

It sounds like the method my plugin is using to load the phrase might be different than the vb 3.5 method. I don't have a 3.5.x board to test on anymore, but I can try to research this and find out.

I was wounding if anyone knew how to run the Thread create portion of the vb forums stand alone? Editing and saving each event that was added before this was installed is a pain. I need a way to mass create all the accosiated threads by executing a script to create the thread part of the code product. Maybe check to see if event occurs int he next 30 days from today to provent flooding. HELP please.

I have the same problem...did you ever find a solution? I am also running on 3.5.4

[VTXCafe.com]

Nothing that I have heard, it may be an 3.5.x issue...I hope not!!

[TorGa3iGhT]

if you end up finding a solution, would you mind letting me know? i've been waiting for the integration plugin for this, but i guess not many are making plugins for 3.5.x anymore, so I can't find it anywhere....

was going to update, but at this point, it would take me a week to get my site ready to update...but yeah, if u hear anything, lemme know! Thanks though

Excellent work, for those of us who run forums where people interact regularly, this makes life so much easier.

Please note that version 1.0.1 of this hack is NOT compatible with "Farcaster's Event Attendance" version 1.2.0 yet. I am working on updating this hack and I will send out an update when it is ready.

Good to know -- I was just about to upgrade to "Farcaster's Event Attendance" version 1.2.0, but decided to check here and Farcaster?s Event Attendance: Email Add-On" version 1.0.0 to make sure they were compatible.

[Farcaster]

The updated version is ready! This add-on will now work happily with version 1.2.0.

Enjoy!
