I'll throw in my 2 cents..the feature i need most is reocurring events! I run a site with 6 or so events that happen every week. Sure tired of entering them by hand. I'm thankful for the mod anyway, but would REALLY benefit from having reocurring event options. Multiple day events would be great too.
Please oh please, let someone smarter than me make it happen.
Thanks!< |

Is it me or is there no security implementation for this mod? Anyone can post an event. There are several attempts to force the calendar to be visible only in certain forums, but that is not the ultimate solutions.
similiar to the poll mod, a choice (pull down menu) can be give so that all members, only moderators and/or admins, or (something else i forgot) are allowed to post an event.
just my thoughts.< |

Event in every topic....................................................
Is there away to choose which category the event mod can used in? Something like the Poll mod.
Right now it is in every category and people are choosing the event link for a normal topic.

read the post 4th from top on this page (15) you can set it to either forum or category by using the above system, as Admin you will be able to add the event to any forum/category but normal users will only be able to access the forum or cat you set it to.
To make it more interesting if you set it to a specific forum or create an events category you can set the system to moderated posts allowing you to vet the events before accepting them< |

Hi everyone. Great MOD, I have been using it for a few weeks now. I do have one question that I haven't been able to find an answer to. Hopefully someone can answer this...
Is there any way to limit the number of days shown for viewing events on either the portal page or the default page?
If I have a set of say 20 events that span over a few months, and enter all of them into the system, all of the events show up even if they are 6 months away. I know that I can limit the number of events shown, but doesn't allow me to limit the number of days to show.
This function creates the recordset of eventsstrSql = "SELECT "
if strDBtype = "access" or strDBtype = "sqlserver" then strSql = strSql & "TOP " & intEventstoDisplay & " "
strSql = strSql & "T.TOPIC_ID, " & _
"T.T_SUBJECT, " & _
"T.FORUM_ID, " & _
"T.T_STATUS, " & _
"T.T_EVENT_DATE, " & _
"C.CAT_MODERATION, " & _
"F.F_MODERATION " & _
"FROM " & strTablePrefix & "TOPICS T, " & _
strTablePrefix & "CATEGORY C, " & _
strTablePrefix & "FORUM F " & _
"WHERE T.T_ISEVENT=1 " & _
"AND T_EVENT_DATE > '" & datetostr(DateValue(strForumTimeAdjust)) & "' " & _
"AND F.FORUM_ID = T.FORUM_ID " & _
"AND C.CAT_ID = T.CAT_ID " & _
"ORDER BY T.T_EVENT_DATE Asc"
and allows me to limit the number of displayed records, but I might run into a problem where if I limit the number of events listed, some events might never show up if there are a many events over a short time period.
I would rather show the next 2 weeks worth of events rather than limit the list to the next 10 events which could potentially remove the 11th event.
I did a search on the board and couldn't find anything specific to this.
I did try adding this contraint to the WHERE clause but I can't get the code to work right.
"AND T_EVENT_DATE <= '" & Dateadd(d,30,(datetostr(DateValue(strForumTimeAdjust)))) & "' " & _
Anyone have any ideas on how to get this to work?
Thanks!

No you can specify when you are setting up who has the rights to post events (IE only moderators and admins) although there is not a pull down in the admin section where you can specify it (you actually edit a single line in the config page for this one).

This topic just won't die, will it?

It's you.
quote:
"AND T_EVENT_DATE <= '" & Dateadd(d,30,(datetostr(DateValue(strForumTimeAdjust)))) & "' " & _
Try this instead:
Add this constant to cal_constants.asp
'The number of days to show events
Const intCalNDays = 30
Then add this to your where clause:
"AND T_EVENT_DATE BETWEEN '" & DateToStr(DateAdd("d", -intCalNDays, DateValue(strForumTimeAdjust))) & "' AND '" & DateToStr(DateAdd("d", intCalNDays, DateValue(strForumTimeAdjust))) & "' "
Please, if anyone has any more questions/comments/whatever post them in the newer topic or in the MOD: Implementation forum< |

I just figured it out actually and was going to post the answer. I wasn't expecting a response so quickly! This is what I came up with which is pretty much the same as what you added."AND T_EVENT_DATE <= '" & datetostr(Dateadd("d",30,(DateValue(strForumTimeAdjust)))) & "' " & _I TOTALLY appreciate the quick response though! Changing the 30 to the variable as you had is a better way of doing it. It took me a little while to figure out what was actually happening in the datetostr function.
Thanks again!< |

time & location fields would be great for this! I'd badly need recurring events and multiday events would be nice too.
Anyone have ideas or updates?
MUCH GRASS.< |

It is a good mod but i have i think a small problem.
I have done everything in the readme.
My forum is 3.4.03
I i'm using the newest version of the event calendar.
Also there are another mods installed on my forum like Poll,Avatar,Themes
The problem is that i can only set event in one forum/catagory and not in more what i want.
And when i go to the event is seams of one part is missing the other site is black so the letters aren't visible.
It seems that the whole event is crushed.
Can you help me?

Hopefully Red1 is still monitoring this thread if not, someone else can help me out.
I've downloaded the newest version of this mod and applied it to a set of brand new forums. Everything looks great! The problem comes in when I've added new categories, I can't add events to any of the new categories, just the original 'Testing Forums' that's defaulted with the Snitz install.
Anybody help please?< |
