Support
[hr]value[/hr]I use my released mods daily, if I find an issue with them or add features for myself I will release updates. If there are significant bugs or simple feature requests I will do my best to release fixes. Some of my mods rely on fetching data from 3rd party websites, due to the unreliable results, my mods will require users to troubleshoot for themselves if they find the addon is not working for them specifically. I am offering my personal mods that work ok for me for you to use, I am sorry I do not have time to troubleshoot many user specific issues. Thank you for your understanding.

The file class_gwowarmory.php is not in the zip file.
Can we get a link to this?
Thanks.

I also noticed that if you set up recurring entries and then signup, it signs you up for every entry, not just the date you signed up on.

Otherwise, I like it.

Sorry, always forget that. I have updated the zip to include the file.

About recurring, the signups are stored by event id, a recurring event is a singe event entry. This is something I would like to work on, currently it requires a new entry per event.

I'd love to get this sucker working with Recurring events. I've upgraded to this mod from ElricStorm's calendar plugin.

My users set up multiple recurring events (every Monday is Gruul and Magtheridon, every thursday is a badge speed run through Karazahn, etc...), so having a sign-up mod that works with recurring events is crucial to them (thus to me ). I've got this installed and will tell them to work with single events for the time being, but will EAGERLY await a version that supports recurring events.

Great job on all the WoW plugins, by the way. You rock.

[Kinneas]

[s]For some reason my members and I are no longer able to signup as "Maybe", only Yes and No.

I have ensured that this is enabled in ACP options (have even toggled it off and on again), I have also re-uploaded/overwritten all the files and re-imported the product with overwrite enabled.

Any ideas G?[/s]

Update: Never mind, figured it out - Was a pesky template. I edited the template before to fix the security token thingy and it didn't revert. Did you change "Tentative" to "Maybe" by any chance? :P

any update on the

gWoWEvents Armory Import

Fatal error: Cannot use string offset as an array in /public_html/xxx/forums/includes/cron/cron.gwowevents.charinfo.php on line 64

issue?

[neo88]

I was wondering if there is a way to get an RSS feed of the events in your Calendar, and put them on a website. So other people can see what new events are going on instead of going to the forums.

I remember reading something about it that there was this hack, i tried searching, but no luck.

THanks

Gryph...

I updated with the attached file and have the field set correctly in the options (We just Field9) and I still get this error

What exactly did you change to get 'maybe' to work?

After updating to the latest version I just reverted the gwe_signup_form template.

Same issue. Previously posted fix by another user gave me an error on another line, reverted file and back to the issue with line 50. Still hoping for a fix. <3
