Event Chronology Hack v1.0

Event Chronology Hack v1.0

Hack by : cinq
Tested and working with vb3.0.3 (earlier version untested but should work)


WHATS IT DO ?
This hack allows the administrator to maintain a listing of the past events that your site has organized.
This allows you to document past event history in a quick summary, and may be useful for potential sponsors to view.
Such events can be in the form of talks, outings, conventions, auctions, competitons, and so on. You are only limited by your imagination. As this hack uses phrases, you can easily change the context to make it suit your requirements.

This mod is exactly what I've needed at my board. It could use some improvements, certainly, but so far it's pretty good. I got annoyed with the requirement for an image for every time you added an event, so I removed it. I'm about 70% sure I only changed the one line, so if this doesn't work don't blame me.

On line 93 find:

 else
	{
		print_stop_message('invalid_file_specified');
	}

Substitue:

else
	{
		$_POST['do'] = 'doadd1';
	}

For new features I'd like to see nested events. For use on my board each 'event' is going to be a timeslot in our RPG timeline, and the event description will be filled with the actual events. This could be made a lot easier, while yet maintaining the flexibility of this mod by allowing nested events.

Is there a way to do without the image?

Not at the moment, but in the next version it'll be the case.
