Agilent,

As I mentioned in reply to your PM, that is exactly as it is designed to work. If the time or date are changed, the present functionality is to delete all existing RSVPs for that event.

I haven't bothered looking in the plugins yet, but can you instruct everyone on how to undo this?? I have no need for this "functionality". It is actually a nuisance to how I'm using the RSVP system.

I'm sort of busy right now, but if you're not going to share how, then I hope to post a fix soon for agilent and anyone else who doesn't like this feature.

There was another mod that took cues from the Event Attendance hack:

Any idea what I'd need to modify on this hack to get it to work with the Event Forums?

Elenna,

Although he used my code as a base, he provides all support for his modification and any integration between it and the Event Forums.

[Elenna]

Thanks very much, I'll try there!

OK...

1) I installed Evercrafts version 3.3 hack

2) I installed Farcasters Event Attendance 1.2.1

3) I insatlled the bridge hack 1.1.1

The only thing that doesnt seem to work is the RSVP capability....

Can I get a hand please? =(

[Elenna]

What part of it isn't working? Do you see the RSVP form at all?

[edfig]

No I sure dont...

So I create the event... Validate the RSVP option is checked...

I see everything working except the RSVP feature is not showing in my posted event.

I should point out that I had it working before with the "Event Attendance 2.0" hack... I disabled it before applying these hacks with the OVERWRITE feature marked to "YES."

If that helps...

Have you checked that all the necessary template modifications were completed correctly?
