Support
[hr]value[/hr]I use my released mods daily, if I find an issue with them or add features for myself I will release updates. If there are significant bugs or simple feature requests I will do my best to release fixes. Some of my mods rely on fetching data from 3rd party websites, due to the unreliable results, my mods will require users to troubleshoot for themselves if they find the addon is not working for them specifically. I am offering my personal mods that work ok for me for you to use, I am sorry I do not have time to troubleshoot many user specific issues. Thank you for your understanding.

Notes: This mod does not convert or use data from erlicstorms event mod, uses the same Userfield however. Should work ok on earlier version boards.


Options not implemented:

• Disable Signup Time

[MrShides]

you and https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/member.php?u=182986 need to hook up.

[Caerydd]

Two Questions

1) Is it compatible with Event Forums?
2) Is it possible to run this on calendar A and Farcaster's Event Attendance on Calendar B ?

Cheers (and glad to see the mod picked up again)

[Gryphon]

1) It does not interact with event forums. I may look into that, I dont use the mod.
2) Possibly, I don't use farcasters, however you can limit this mod to specific calendars.

I'll give it a go, I have a bunch of wow players on my site. Right now I just made a bunch of forums for them.
- I never got into the game, but always looking for toys.

Allowed Servers Field: Elune

- Anything else ? (like I have a clue on the game)
- I have no clue what a visiting user may use.
- Select "D" yes to all ?

[Gryphon]

Should be good to go

This is great, thank you for finally releasing this as you know I been bugging you for it

One thing I would love to see would a way to list those drafted, those on stand-by and those declined by the raid leader for the upcoming event.

One thing I would love to see would a way to list those drafted, those on stand-by and those declined by the raid leader for the upcoming event.

Ideas:

- Perhaps make the user that is raid leader the Mod of the calendar.
- Option per usergroup "Can Modify Sign-Ups"
- calendar.php?do=manage&e=xxx add a plugin to list current users signed up with options to stand-by / declined per record in a table layout

- then there would need to be code option to allow Mod edit the sign-ups for the event
-- declined (delete ?) and option to send e-mail or PM with message
-- stand-by (list their name in a another <div> bellow the current players) and option to send e-mail or PM with message
