How about a calendar for each of the events-based forums? Allow each thread to be tagged with the event date & time and build this into a view accessible from the forum index pages - perhaps using something like google calendar.

This would give a really easy way of seeing what's happening on a specific day, rather than having to wade through a whole bunch of individual posts, plus provide more visibility for events that might otherwise be lost in a sub-forum somewhere...

This sounds good to me - though as I'm currently about 2,500 kilometres away and am not due back next until March 1st there's no great hurry. (It's well below zero here and there's more snow than you can shake a spade at but all the buses, trams, trolley-buses, route taxis and trains are running.) Now if only I could find the voting option...

vbulletin has a calender - and what with all the things going on arranged and advertised via SF I was always curious as to why it wasn't utilised

I'd vote for it to be used, but I don't know who'd administrate it!

Couldn't the admin be done by users, I can't see why it would be any worse than letting them post event threads?

I was just about to post a Suggestions thread asking for a calendar view so we can see things in date order when I found this, it's a bit disheartening to see it wasn't really answered fully.

There does seem to be less 'feedback' from the higher echelons these days :suspect:

Medusa? Any news on this?
