Modifications to Upcoming Events and Calendar postings.

[K7VZ]

This morning I added 2 plugins that change how the Upcoming Events and Calendar entries work. It basically links the two.

For example, if you click new post from the Upcoming Events forum, it automatically takes you to a new calendar post. Once saved, it adds the entry to both the calendar and the Upcoming Events forum.

Second plugin is an RSVP system for the calendar. On new events, it adds a Yes, Maybe, No and an area for comment to each event.

It looks like it only works on new events from this point forward and isn't retroactive to previous events.

Let me know how these work and if you have any problems.

I was able to edit the already posted events to get them to synchronize with the new plugins.

Virgil,

Someone on the AZVJC asked for a feature like this.

The name of the two plugins might be useful to them.

Virgil, are you an IT guy? 'cause you're making my head hurt! ;)

Haha, I don't think they will work on a mac.

Good point, I forgot that the AZVJC site was mac based.

[K7VZ]

Haha, macs suck.
