Calendar Event Notification (by email)

This hack will send you an email notice whenever someone posts a public event onto your message board's calendar. It can be optionally configured to send you a notice for both public and private events (if you're particularly snoopy!).

This hack is very simple and only a small amount of new code to one file, and one new template. No database mods, no template mods, etc.

Umm, what's the point of this?

$subject = $subject;

I have no idea. Where did you find it? It's not in my instructions to add that anywhere, nor does that exist anywhere in calendar.php, so I'm not quite sure why you're asking me.

i know this is old now, but it would be cool if you could define by the template if it's a public or a private event that has been posted.

still great.
