I know this has been asked before but is there a way to input an event for multiple dates? I've installed the new Event Calendar 3.4.03 and it seems to be working perfectly except that if an event occurs from say 1-5 Feb, the person must enter the event five times...
Is there a way (or a change to the mod) that allows somebody to enter a start and stop date of the event???
Thanks,< |

There is no simple way to add that feature without doing enormous changes to the code. I might add it to a future release, if I ever get to actually doing it  . In the meantime if you really need that feature you can try the old events mod for snitz 3.3; it needs a little fixing before it can work in 3.4 but it can handle multiple dates.< |

Thanks Red1! I have the old version on one of my sites but I liked yours so much I installed it on my new site.
I look forward to the mod if you ever get around to it!
Thanks again,< |

| I plan to add the ability to set a "repeat pattern" when adding an event. The user can pick every day, every other day, every week, every month, Mondays and Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays, etc. I was thinking that the best way to do it would be to insert each date as a separate record in the database. It would likely be a new mod that isn't compatible with the current one.< |

I have installed this mod and it works great (good work red) but I have a small problem. I am in the process of building a home page or portal for my site.
How do you get the small calendar view on your home page? I have tried by placing the following code on my home page.
dim dateHolder
if Request.Querystring("date")="" then
dateHolder=DateValue(strForumTimeAdjust)
else
dateHolder=DateValue(CDate(Request.Querystring("date")))
end if
It works but the links back to the forum does not work it get and error saying page cannot be found.
The problem is that the home page is outside the forum folder but the link it is trying to find is http://www.shaft.pimpjuice.co.uk/st/cal.asp?date=1/18/2003
which also is outside the forum folder and of course does not exist because cal.asp is inside my forum folder.
Have I done it right? What can I do to fix this?
I also want to put the recent events right below the small calendar what code do I have to place on home page for this and will the link to forum work?
Here is a link to my test portal that I have been working on.

Just a note to encourage you in this effort. I'm using the original calendar mod precisely for the need to have repeating events. (Yours certainly has the better interface and better functionality.) Also, an outlook-style, drop-down date picker would be handy.
If anyone wants the older calendar mod updated to 3.4xx, send me an email and I'll package it up.< |

Maybe I'm just missing it but...
Setup for this mod isn't listed in the admin options. Is there a way to make it so only administrators can add and remove events from the calendar?< |

in cal_constants.asp
edit this line
'### Member level allowed to post events ###
'### Admins only = 4, Admins and Moderators = 3, All Members = 2 ###
Const intAllowedtoPostEvent = 3
