Mini Mods - Upcoming Events on Top of Pages

Displays Upcoming Events on the top of the pages FORUMHOME, FORUMDISPLAY and SHOWTHREAD.

After numerous failures in creating this plug-in Dark_Wizard created it for me and deserves all credit for this product.

It does not work with Farcaster's Event Attendance (RSVP)

7/8/10 - Replaced download with Dark_Wizard's as mentioned in Post #20 :up:

finally got around to adding this. It seems to work perfectly.. thanks!

I also added '[ ]' brackets around each of the calendar items to better separate them in the listing.. works well, imo.

Good idea rootrider. I used bullets and non-breaking spaces to separate one from the other.

I've installed this mod and can see the Upcoming Events box, however it is empty and not pulling any events I have on the Calendar?

Are your events showing in What's Going On?

Oh yes, yes they are. But nothing is appearing in the mod box.

I haven't seen that happen yet Croton, try using the version Dark_Wizard posted in Post #32 and see if it makes a difference.

Just tried the direct xml file he posted and no dice as well.

I believe I had a version of this running back on 4.0.2 and had uninstalled it, but now I'm on 4.0.5 and I'm not able to get it working.

How about doing the old template edit to see what happens? It only works on FORUMHOME but could answer whether or not something else is going on.

Paste below {vb:raw header}{vb:raw navbar}

<!-- upcomingevents -->
<div id="wgo" class="collapse wgo_block">
<h2>
<span>
Upcoming Events
</span>
</h2>
<div class="floatcontainer">
<div id="wgo_events" class="wgo_subblock">
<ol class="commalist">
{vb:raw upcomingevents}
</ol>
</div>
</dl>
</div>
</div>
<!-- upcomingevents -->

We've got an odd problem with dates now. Seems some of them have 1 day added. Thus, the event shows up top as 8/7 & 8/8, but down below (and in the calendar) it actually occurs on 8/6 & 8/7.

Maybe some sort of odd timezone thing?

That's odd Videx but I recall it being an issue with another mod. Do you use Farcaster's Event attendance by chance?
