calendar event views

[robert_2004]

this mod would add a simple "event viewed 'x' number of times" when viewing a calendar event.

i was wondering if someone has already modified their board with this, or someone is willing to create the mod?

it's pretty easy to do. just add a column called hits to keep track on number of event views.

Query:

ALTER TABLE event ADD hits INT(7) NOT NULL;

Open calendar.php,
FIND:

PHP Code:

    if (!empty($eventarray)) 


ABOVE, ADD:

PHP Code:

    //event viewing counter by tnguy3n
    $DB_site->query("
            UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "event 
            SET hits=hits+1
            WHERE eventid = $eventid
        ");
    // end counter 


that's it.

well, if you wish to post it as a hack release, few free to.

this has stopped working for vB 3.5.4 - and i can't figure out how to make it work.
i've tried all of the following:
$event
$eventid
$eventinfo['eventid']
$event['eventid']
$vbulletin->GPC['eventid']
but none of them want to output the event's ID.

can someone please help me out

okay, this has been updated for 3.5.4, and should work with 3.5.5

it should even work with 3.6
