Calendar Enhancements - Farcaster's Event Attendance v3 (for vb4)

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.

Features

• 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.
• Ability to 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.

Requirements
vBulletin v4.0.0 or higher.

Hi,

one Question.
I tried to show the total members say "Yes" on the vbCMS from vbdesigns.de

This is my code:

$anzahlsql = "SELECT COUNT(*) AS anzahl FROM vb4_eventattendance WHERE eventid = 1";
$anzahlquery = mysql_query($anzahlsql) or die("MySQL-Error : ".mysql_error());
$teilnehmeranzahl = mysql_fetch_object($anzahlquery);
$teilnehmer = $teilnehmeranzahl->anzahl;

and to show on a template:

$templater->register('teilnehmer', $teilnehmer);

and in this Template

{vb:raw teilnehmer}

Works fine, but only for the EventID 1.
How can i get this informations for the next Events 2,3,4,5

Getting the following error

The response you gave to this event was not in the list of valid responses. Please contact the forum administrator if you believe you have received this message in error..

Great hack!

I was just wondering if there was a possibility to invite users (by pm or mail for instance) after posting an event and setting the RSVP? A sort of event invitation to get it under attention of selected usergroups.

Is there a way to create that? Or is it something for a next update/version?

@ blamelesssas; That's a phrase of this mod, I think it says it all? You filled in a different answer then required (IE Yes, Maybe, No).

having a couple small problems with this mod that I have not found anywhere in this thread.

There is no Time/Date Stamp on any of the current RSVP's.

Also, is there a way to display the users that have RSPV'd in order of who replied first and not in Alphabetical order?

Hi all,

Running this on vBulletin 4.0.8 PL2. Everything seems to work great except on minor thing and not sure if it has been covered, been fixed or can be fixed.

But the date, time and comments seem to be messed up. I have attached a screenshot of what I am seeing.

Thanks for your time and help

Hi,

got this problem:
I have installed:
Farcaster's Event Attendance v3 (for vb4)
and
BBR - vB Event Forums Version: 1.0.1

if i write a new Event and click after in this event to the showthread.php/xxx
then nobody can activate/change the RSVP Status or write a Comment.

See my screenshot!
What happend?

Here it works: calendar.php?eventid=5&do=getinfo
But without BBR - vB Event Forums Version: 1.0.1

Just installed this mod on a 4.1.2 VB forum and everything works great except one thing.
When a member makes a comment with their rsvp this takes the place of their comment.

{rsvp:var rsvp.comment}

Anyway to fix this?

Did you do step #2 above which is here?

2. Use the Style Manager to find and edit your calendar_showeventsbit:
Find:

HTML Code:
<div class="eventfoot">

Above that add:
HTML Code:
{vb:raw rsvp_form}

I think this may be your issue. IF you edit that file with the code above that should solve your issue I believe.
