Calendar Enhancements - Farcaster's Event Attendance v2

This modification will allow your members to RSVP to events on the vBulletin calendar. By default, members can respond "Yes," "No," or "Maybe," as to whether or not they will be able to attend an event, but you can modify or add to the list of responses members are presented with as you desire. Below are a list of features with new features in version 2.0 highlighted.

• Specify some or all of your calendars to use the RSVP system.
• Set whether an event accepts RSVPs during event creation / edit.
• Allow members to specify if they will be bringing a guest.
• Event owners can set the maximum number of guests each member may bring.
• Events can be set to close RSVPs on the day of the event or before.
• RSVP comments (up to 65k character limit, configurable)
• Timestamped RSVPs
• Moderators and event owners can remove member RSVPs from events.
• Attendance list can be set to display member avatars.
• Improved handling of differing timezones and daylight saving times.
• Configurable Response options. You aren't stuck with Yes, No, Maybe. You can setup whatever responses you want.
• When events are updated, RSVPs will not be deleted unless the event moved to a different day, or the end date of a ranged or recurring event was shortened. Changing the recurring options will still automatically delete the associated RSVPs.
• The ability to suppress RSVP deletions on event update entirely, if you wish, although this isn't recommended.
• You can now specify a maximum number of attendees for an event. After the maximum is reached, you can configure members to either receive an error or have their response (RSVP) automatically changed to something else. This could be used to create a wait-list bucket, for instance. There won't be any automated system to move members from the wait-list if a space becomes available in this revision, however.
• The time stamp on the RSVP is no longer changed unless the member when the member simply updates his comments. The date will only be changed if the member changes from one response to another (i.e. Yes to No).

Please be aware that the following modifications currently WILL NOT work with this revision until they have been updated:

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

I have cleaned up this thread from a lot of noise.

It is every authors right to choose if he will allow others to release modified versions of his work or not. The decission should be respected and it serves no purpose to post over and over again that you are not happy with the decission.

Also advertising your own work in the thread of another modification is not allowed. If you think there is a need to discus something, use the appropriate forum for it, if you have coded your own solution, just release it. There is no reason why you should post in this thread about work you are creating.

Then why haven't you removed all this user's post from the "Integration" thread for this mod?

You can do this by editing your template to something like this:

<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 1, 6">$rsvp_form</if>

Replace the 1,6 with whatever groups you want to be able to see the mod and put a comma between each one.

I am confused by this. What will this work on? I have 3.8 and looking for a way for people to RSVP, i have VB events. will this work with that? please explain.

TY

It will work with 3.8. It does not work with the Evercraft's mod, Event Forums.

I installed Event Forums on 3.8 and it worked fine, I installed your mod on 3.8 on its own and it worked fine, why can't they be made to work together.

[jonbaker]

has the Farcaster's Event Attendance & vb Event Forums Integration been updated for 3.7.3?

[Leo Brazil]

I have just installed it on 3.8.0
Set up everything, that's very easy to undertand BTW.

But when try to choose any of the options I created the only thing I can get is: "The response you gave to this event was not in the list of valid responses"

I've checked this using an event I already had in my calendar. I had to edit this event to include RSVP options for this and to be showed on event page. Everything seems to be running OK but this.

Any ideas ?

Edited: More info about this issue:

I was checking database for this mod and looks like db table eventattendance is empt. The valid options should be storaged into it, isn't it ?
I've tried to remove the function that verifies Valid Options just to see what happens. Now I can choose but the page just refreshes and nothing else happens db eventattendance is still empt. It seems a write function to write on this db is missing or something. Tried also to check and optimize those two db tables created by this mod but everything OK.

BTW, this happens with a fresh installation on 3.8.0, I meam may be it's a different situation then have it installed on 3.7.X and upgrade to 3.8.

Some help with this will be very welcome.

Sorry to bump this but any ideas ?
