Calendar Topics Support

Hmmmm.

Nice concept, but not suitable for what I need :P I would definitely buy if:

  1. The event info in the topic was in its own box above the OP, separate from the post content of the topic, just like polls are, and is updated automatically if the calendar event is updated.
  2. Being able to create a calendar event when you make a topic.

​I like the above idea and would suit our forum.

Tag Prefix.

If you've got tags enabled, the calendar topics should actually inherit what ever tags/prefix you set in the event.

Getting a problem with a plug in.  I created an even "testing events".  After the creation i was taken to a page http://www.bmw2002faq.com/calendar/event/-testing-events

This page is not found this page should be http://www.bmw2002faq.com/calendar/event/117-testing-events/  The name is missing the ID.  The link in the topic is also incorrect http://www.bmw2002faq.com/forums/topic/178971-testing-events-04012016-900-am-to-04012016-1200-pm/

Creating the events with the plug in disabled does not cause this problem.

Thanks,

Steve K.

PHP 5.6

Are you also using the latest version of IP.Board? I'm going to need board access to troubleshoot further, I don't have any possible theories right now.

latest version of the board. i went from 3.4.xx to 4.19 to 4.1.10

Looks like this is only happening on the Calendar that existed in the old version of the board.  News ones handle this without problems.

do you need both ACP and ssh access?

thanks,

Sorry but just to clarify, do you mean previous events that were created before a certain date?

Preferably acp and ftp/file access to your forums plugins folder.

No, the actual Calendar that was created prior to upgrade. The 2 calendars that were created after the upgrade do not have the problem. If i try to create an event in the old calendar, i get a failure, if i create it in the new calendar, there is no problem.

Well, after enabling, disabling and re-enabling things, things look OK right now and everything works. Probably some caching problem. I'll let you know if problem comes back

Hook adds a link to the discussion topic for events which have them

Does this mean I can link a newly created calendar event to a previously created topic?

No, only events that are newly created or updated will have discussion topics created for them. You can link an existing topic but it would have to be done manually via the database.

My event calendar is set to UK date format, however it keeps posting topics with a US date format.

You can but for now this will need to be modified manually. If you open plugins/calendartopics/hooks/{open all 3 php files}

Find:

$tags['%event_date%']	 = $eventDate;

Replace With:

$tags['%event_date%']	 = $eventDate->format( 'd-m-Y' );

Save. You can then modify the month, day and year placements. If you have a particular date format example you want to use, let me know.

Nice plugin,

I've some suggestions, it could be great when creating an event:

  • To disable topic creation / association
  • To override topics forums selected (choose a particular forum for an event)
  • To delay topic creation (choose between now, at event start or event close)

Thanks you :thumbsup:

Noted all. I did have a custom request for a few of those but that hasn't really progressed further. But I'll still consider adding them as default features when I begin work on new features again.
