    Forumotion News : the events on the forums.


    Dear users,

    Forumotion is glad to announce a new functionality on the forums : ''The Events’’. This new option is added to your forum in order to help you to organize and plan your events and to get unique interactions and exchanges with your community. Cool


    What is the event system ?


    Thanks to this exclusivity, your members can now create an event with a good description of it, in real life or virtually and they can share it with your community. Meetings, festivals, concerts, demonstrations,…etc. everything is possible ! It’s up to you to find the best events that will interest your community to share with your members unforgettable memories ! ;D

    Directly linked with the calendar, the events of your forum will let you organize in an easy, ergonomic and useful way every kind of activity with your community.

    See example:

    You can set up the permissions of the event in your administration panel. Members that will get the opportunity to create events can be more implicated in your forum !
    Strengthening your bonds or sharing new things, the events are the best way to organize and plan meetings or special opportunity on your forums !


    How to activate the event system ?

    To activate the events on your forum, you just have to go in your administration panel, Modules tab, and then go to Events. Everybody can create events or only some groups that you set up with the permissions.

    See example:

    A new option in the main menu will appear when you activate the events. It will let you go on the special section of the events.

    See example:

    We won’t tell you more and let you discover by yourself all the possibilities of the events on your forums. Very Happy
    You can now create and organize everything you like, so don’t hesitate anymore ! And the best is yet to come… Cheer
    See you soon for other news,

    Reguards,
    Forumotion Team. king

    If you activate this option, you will notice there is no image for the link in the navbar.  To fix this, go to AP > Display > Colors & Pictures > Pics Management (Advanced Mode) and click the see examples button for events.

    @Tonight and @Kami-sama You need to make sure you add a time and date of start and end to the system before posting.

    Please take a screen shot of the parts you are filling in and then the error page Smile

    Thanks for the fix.

    Some additional questions/problems:
    1) Is there a reason why it isn't possible to change the position of events (and wiki) in navbar?

    2) Why can't we translate/change the name of events?

    After the recent updates the HTML was disabled by default. Had to enable it again. Has this event update caused this?

    I do not have that issue on my 2 forums.  What forum version do you use?  Also what device are you using?

    If you are using the theme by Ange Tueteur, you need to visit FM Design.  There is a topic about events in the support section for Edge.

    Hi there,

    I was wondering if you had created a handy widget for your event. I mean something that would show upcoming events in order of their date, like 5 soonest?

    It would certainly be handy since now the events are rather hidden.
