Calendar / Thread Integration Hack · **Released**: 05-14-2003

Ok, this is my first VBulletin hack so please be calm on me

As this is a beta BACKUP the files to be edited (as always)

I always wanted to link the calendar events to a thread aswell. So that if you make a public event, it also generates a thread from the same info. Now i always thought this was going to be hard, but actually it is really simple.

There are 5 steps to do in total in just 2 files. It concerns the calendar.php and the newthread.php

I tested this on vb 2.30 & works smoothly now at my site www.livesets.com

what does it do exactly:

When people push the New Thread button in a particular forum (can be specified as you like) you will be redirected to the Add Public Event screen
After filling in the required info it generates a public event just like it would do normally
next to that it will generate a thread in the forum where you pushed the New Thread button with topic title [date] title ( f.e. "[2003-05-14] Awakenings, Amsterdam NL" ) adn the same content as the Public Event
after that it updates all counters (forum,thread,user)
redirects to the new thread

NOTICE: on several places you will have to manually insert the forumid you want to use for this, in the example attached here the forumid used was 2

Please give some feedback

I'm really happy i got this to work

Some members already requested something like this, this is to make them happy :classic:

Greets,
Session.

See our site
www.commodorecarclubwa.com
We have two events calendars. One for offical club events and one for non-club events.

they each have an associated forum.
club events - http://www.commodorecarclubwa.com/forumdisplay.php?f=30 I would like to add to this calendar http://www.commodorecarclubwa.com/calendar.php?c=2

non-club events - http://www.commodorecarclubwa.com/forumdisplay.php?f=31 I want to add this to this calendar http://www.commodorecarclubwa.com/ca...r=2005&do=&c=4

Can this be done with this hack?

Any comments would be great thanks.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
