Yes it only changes the recurrence. That's why I placed the Edit box along with the event fields and not with the subject or the message. You're right, though; it can be confusing. I'll have to see what I can do about this.

> Maybe the key is to have individual topics once an individual event has been edited...

Surely it can be done like this but I think that'll cause too much clutter. But if this is what you want maybe I can come up with some code for you.

What I might end up doing is something different and store the message and subject in the events table so each one could be seperate, but all still linked back to the main topic.

To be honest most of our events don't need the full topic functionality. So I would use the Subject (or Title) field for the events calendar and same with Message (or Details)...

Just a possible solution. I think that too many topics is going to slow things down. Also this way you can have the calendar get info about archived topics as well.

Red1,

I'm with Steve on this, having looked through the new mod reasonably logically, testing it out to see what it would do. Part of the problem is that the start and end date in the edit window refer to the specific day, but the 'edit' refers to the entire period, if that makes any sense.

Secondly, I might be going mad, but having set some specific forums to be 'calendars' in cal_constants.asp I'm not getting the 'New event' option within the forums, just 'New topic'... I used your 'fresh' files and a clean install of 3.4.03 (using SQL 7), so not sure what the problem is...

That said, the new implementation is generally excellent, really heading in the right direction. I'll give it a more thorough investigation and let you know how I get on.

Cheers and thanks for all your efforts!

Simon

The mod looks great, but given all the changes I have on my Calendar for custom drop down to show Category and Forum names, Birthday Mod, other bug fixes...I guess I would need to make your modifications on top of my code. I assume you don't have a documentation of the changes by file other than the non-calendar ones in the readme? And if so, could I use the basic Snitz calendar files and do a file compare to yours and flush out the edits that way, or do you have some other things going on in your code? Thanks, it looks like a great piece of work that everyone always asks for.

Hey I'm unbelievably grateful for this MOD!! I can't wait until it's ready to go. I've been playing with it and I noticed a week or so ago on the test site, when you click a link to an event listed on the home page I get the following error:

Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a0411'

Name redefined

/mod/inc_adovbs.asp, line 14

Const adOpenForwardOnly = 0
------^

Anybody planning a version of this for ServerHacker's code?

Is there an updated download with recent changes?

Thanks a lot!!

Hey I'm trying out the 6/4 release of the recurring mod. I also get the error I listed above on my site when I click a link to an event.
Any idea what the fix is? Did I mess something up in the coding? I am using my own modified files via the read me. Maybe i'll try the included original snitz ones temporarily.
I much appreciate any help!
Thanks.

Find
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="cal_style.asp"-->


in your files and change them to :

<link rel="stylesheet" href="cal_style.asp" type="text/css">

There is a cal_upgrade.asp file that will upgrade
your database to the newest version. (Found on snitzbitz.com)
Try running that one

I had run the cal_upgrade previously, but I tried again for fun.

By comparing files, I got the error to go away.

Another thing I've noticed is that events i've added to the calendar are appearing as a new event topic in the forum list....but NOT on the event calendar. Older events that were migrated with the cal_upgrade.asp page, are on the calendar.

Anyone know why?

Thanks for any help!

I have redone this mod edit on another forum using a Crash code base. I get the same problem again. When i submit a new event, it is added to the forum_topics table, but not forum_cal_events table. So new events are not appearing on the calendar.
What am I missing??? Thanks for any help.

I am having a problem with the cal_delete.asp file. The page returns an HTTP 500 - Internal server error and doesn't give any other error messages. Usually I can plod along and troubleshoot if I have an error message but I don't have a clue this time.

I'm hoping someone has a suggestion or has found a bug in cal_delete.asp?

BTW, I have had to comment out the cLng in calendar.asp because of errors:

'If cLng(arrRqCalForumID) = cLng(ForumForumID) then strOptions = strOptions & " selected"
If arrRqCalForumID = ForumForumID then strOptions = strOptions & " selected"

Is this another bug and/or is there another workaround?

Thanks.

Nothing like posting a question to make something jump right out at ya! I found an error in cal_delete.asp:

line 20 should be this -

Event_Date = cDate(Request("DATE"))

but instead was missing closing ) -

Event_Date = cDate(Request("DATE")
