Unfortunately, vBulletin lacks some hooks in key places for events, such as hooks to the event SQL statements. This means that there are a number of file edits needed for this modification. Sorry for that, but I hope it will be worth it! Enjoy!
Step One – Backup Your Database and vBulletin Files! This really needs to be said, especially since this version is in BETA. Loss of data/time/business is not the responsibility of the developer. Use at your own risk. Step Two – Import the Product File In the Admin CP, import rah_socialgroup_calendars_1_0_0.xml. Step Three – Edit vBulletin File: includes/functions_calendar.php Note: If you do not want to have Social Group Events show up in the upcoming events section on your forum homepage, then you only need do steps 1 through 7 in this section. 1. Find the first instance of (in function cache_events, near the beginning of the file): PHP Code:
PHP Code:
PHP Code:
PHP Code:

Note: If you do not want to have Social Group Events show up in the upcoming events section on your forum homepage, you can skip this section entirely. Keep in mind though that if you do have your calendar options set to show events from the calendar that social group events will be posted to, the list will not be filtered and everyone will see them. 1. Find the following: PHP Code:
PHP Code:
PHP Code:

Upload the modified files to the appropriate directory in your forum. Step Six – Edit Template: socialgroups_form 1. Find the following: HTML Code:
<legend>$vbphrase[group_options]</legend> <div class="smallfont"> HTML Code:
<div> <label for="member_entered_events"><input type="checkbox" name="member_entered_events" id="member_entered_events" value="1" $checked[member_entered_events]/> $vbphrase[member_entered_events]</label> </div> Note: If you’re trying to install this on version 3.7.x, the section you put the variable in will be different. Try putting it above <!--pictures--> for instance, and then adjust to be located where you want. 1. Find the following: HTML Code:
</div><br /> </if> <!-- Discussions --> HTML Code:
$socialgroups_events In the Admin CP, go into vBulletin Options -> Social Group Calendar. Set the options as desired. The product will not start working until a calendar ID is entered in this section. Make sure to configure the calendar selected to allow members to post events. |

I have confirmed this to be working on vBulletin version 3.8.1. I assume that it will also work with version 3.7.x. If someone installs it on that version, please confirm if it works appropriately.

I don't either. The calendar is truly a bit underdeveloped, and the idea of events goes very well with social groups...

You are right.

Going to install this now, I think this will do what I've been looking for. =)

Ok, one question. Is there any way (with this mod or something else) to automatically assign someone to a social group? I hope so, or my idea is dead before it gets started. heh
I guess what I'm looking for is social groups based on user group. Or if that's not possible, the ability to automatically give someone access to a social group when they are added to a specific user group. |

No, I'm afraid this mod doesn't do that. Nor do I know of one that does.

Maybe I'll just write a query that adds everyone in a usergroup to a social group every night on a cron... that should work, but not really the cleanest way to go about it. With that, this mod and your RSVP mod, I think everything I need to accomplish will work. Thanks! |
