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:

First of all I want to say thanks for this great mod and thanks to HondaATC for the code to add a button to add an event .

May I ask what vB Event Forums is and where I can get this mod? I did search for it but nothing seemed to come up.

Also if it's not to much trouble can you please tell me how do I get my upcoming events to look like the one you use on your forum?

Ok moved our forum to a VPS with the same host and now I am getting the dreaded wrong day being shown as per gosiah23's post.

Prior to this it was working on shared hosting perfectly. Nothing has changed other than the whole forum being moved to a VPS.

So what would cause this?

I also have this mod installed but is currently disabled and it was working perfectly on shared hosting as well.

But now it is doing exactly the same thing in regards to posting events on the calendar a day later. Since moving to the VPS.

Just like this mod is. So any ideas as to what is causing this?

I posted this same issue I am having with the other mod in the mods thread. But no one has answered me yet. Perhaps if either one of the developers can sort this issue out it will fix both of these mods at the same time.

Or does anyone else have any idea as to how this might be fixed?

Thanks.

Installed on v4.0.3 if that helps.

Sorry but I am going to uninstall this mod as its still posting events a day later than they are set to in the calendar.

I will tag this in the hope that someone will be able to resolve this issue at some stage.

How did you change the code to get the bullet style. I would really like to be able to get a similar effect.

hey, nice mod that ive been looking for, although im curious on how to change a few things.

(like the above post) i would like each event on a new line either is bullet points or not. also i would like to add the times (from and to) as many of my events are just a few hours long. i eagerly await a reply, thanx.

Anyone know why the date shows wrong if you do a ranged event. The date is off by a day.

Any help on these issues we are having or is it in the too hard basket ?

Apparently the author (Dark Wizard) couldn't figure it out, and he hasn't been on all month so I wouldn't hold your breath.

I gave up and just copied the WGO block to the top of forumhome.

1. In Style Manager, edit FORUMHOME
2. Find the events block in WGO near the bottom. It should start just under the line "<vb:if condition="$show['upcomingevents']">"
3. Copy that whole div. In my version it's 6 lines starting with "<div id="wgo_events" class="wgo_subblock">" and ending with "</div>"
4. Paste it near the top just below "{vb:raw navbar}", and maybe add a line "<br/>" for spacing

I have my upcoming events to show up to 3 days. this is showing events on the 31st and the 1st of January currently.

It technically shouldn't be showing anything from 12/31 or 1/1 since there are
Today is 12/27.
3 days = 12/27, 12/28/ 12/29 and possibly 12/30. The last one is debatable because I guess you could say today is 1 of the 3 days... but it is showing 5 days.

It is almost like it skips 3 days, then goes for 3 days. My event on 12/29 isn't showing at all.

I did notice that this mod says "It does not work with Farcaster's Event Attendance (RSVP)"
What doesn't work with Farcaster? I am using Farcaster currently and am seeing some days show up. Is this the bug on why they aren't compatible?

I doubt it. This is probably the bug everyone's been complaining about for the last page or two. Well, that and the fact the dates are wrong, which is probably the same bug.

If you're a coder we all welcome you to solve the problem.
