Does This mod work with 2.0.18 As would be exactly what I need for my Artists sections.

don't know if I need the moon part though

It does parse but a very big mod from the looks of it?

thanks mick

as per the mod page, no
QuoteCompatible With:
1.1.1, 1.1.2
the calendar already allows you to add an event for every year

mickjav

Was wonder but i selected 2.0.18 and it parsed

Just Looked It does allow admin but not allow other members.

maybe I could create a page that allows selected groups to add to that list?

not sure what exactly you are trying to achieve but here's 2 mods that may help
Event Registration for SMF2
Calendar Event Reminder

mickjav

What i want to do is allow members of one or more groups to add a reoccurring birthday for different artists like the members birthdays.

So I could show a list of artists births for a given day or the current day.

you should be able to, I believe
in your admin under members, under permissions
for each group that you want click on modify
set
Create events in the calendar         
Edit events in the calendar

[edit]nevermind as the name implies that's only for events not actual like holidays and such

mickjav

Yes understand that but it creates a standard event i need them to create reoccurring event which seem to write to a different table

Illori

in the admin panel under calendar, you can add a new "holiday" these would repeat each year.

mickjav

Yes I can but not members with lower permissions than admin thats what I would be aiming at doing thanks mick

SMF's calendar system does not support recurring events at all. No mod could change that without completely rewriting the entire calendar system, and to my knowledge no mod exists that even attempts to do so.

Creating holidays or creating dummy accounts to record the birthday data are the only ways to do what you want. Neither option is something that your regular users can do.

You could try requesting a mod to build an alternate way to add and edit entries in the holidays table, but such a mod would need to include some very careful permissions checks—there's a reason, after all, why permission to edit holidays is restricted to admins only.
I promise you nothing.

Thanks Looks Like I'll be adding them myself Lol but only for those artists with home pages.

thanks mick

Sesq...  we actually had a recurring event mod on 1.0 and sorta for 1.1

I just never had the capacity/capability to rewrite it for 2.0

I'd love to see that code.

calendar mod -- never got to finish the repeating events though
https://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=138
This also had an importer which let you easily load a CSV import of holidays (I used to run a pagan board, so we needed as way to easily add all of the various holidays into the holiday list.)




here's the one that I handed off which added repeating events
https://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=655
(ironically, the start of this thread (page 1) is about that mod

Then it looks liek Chris gave up and someone else picked up
https://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=2520

Another one that claims to have repeating events but never got approved
https://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1843



also:
event registration
https://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=2024
