Not Supported DB Changes Uses Plugins Template Edits Is in Beta Stage  

Note: This plugin has been discontinued and taken over here. Installing this plugin is *not* recommended.

The plugin creates a tight integration between a calendar and a forum.
  • When an event is created in a calendar, a corresponding thread is created in its forum.
  • When an event is deleted, its thread is deleted.
  • When a thread is deleted, its event is deleted.
  • When an event is edited, its thread is edited.
  • When a thread is edited via quick edit, its event is edited.
  • Links to event details are redirected to the thread.
  • New post links in event forums are redirected to new event forms, except for moderators.
  • Advanced editing on a thread is redirected to event edit.

To set up your calendar/forum pairs, look under "Event Forums" in "vBulletin Options" in admincp.

There is also one template change. In calendar_showeventsbit, change:


Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)  
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

to:


Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)

I run a forum at http://nwtekno.org/ that is heavily oriented to calendar data, so this is useful to me, though I'm not sure how useful it will be to others. Mostly I'm putting this up for critique by people who know more than me.

One thing I'm wondering is how to get the included template (nwteventforums_calendar_showeventsbit) to replace calendar_showeventsbit when installed. Or should I just tell people to copy/paste from one to another?

I would like the posting title to look like this:

Event Title | Event Date | Custom1 | Custom2

What a night | 05/05/05 | All Ages | Kansas City, MO
Also time zones need to be looked at.... it seems to always post the thread title as 0 GMT, even if the forum default isn't that...

Is there any way to get this to not force the custom fields into the subject? It can make for an entirely too long subject if you have a lot of custom fields.

Question

This seems be be working well however on my homepage it shows the number of threads and posts as a default for all my forums, including this one. Also the most recent post.

With this installed it always shows the most recent post as "never" and the posts and thread counts as 0. Is there a way to better display this information in the actual event forum I have set up?

Take a look at my forum for the events called "PhysioBob's Courses" on my forum at http://www.physiobob.com/forum

many thanks
