I’ve been looking into the `this.router` error with the Pavilion Events Plugin and came across this fork:

[https://github.com/awesome-it/discourse-events](https://github.com/awesome-it/discourse-events)

From what I can see, this fork is just a copy of `angusmcleod/discourse-events` with no commits that update it for the latest Discourse changes (including Ember 5 support). It doesn’t seem to address the deprecated code paths causing the current errors.

From community posts and testing, here’s what I understand:

- The original Events Plugin is **not currently compatible** with Discourse’s Ember 5 upgrade.
- Users have reported issues with `event-rsvp` and `add-event` modals, causing breakages.
- A temporary workaround is to force Discourse to use Ember 3 by adding `EMBER_VERSION=3` in `app.yml` — but this is not a long-term fix and may cause future breakage.
- This situation has persisted into early 2025 without an official update from the plugin maintainers.

**Questions:**

1. Can anyone confirm if my understanding above is accurate?
2. Has anyone successfully run the `awesome-it/discourse-events` fork on the latest Discourse without the Ember 3 fallback?
3. Is there an actively maintained fork or alternative plugin that replicates the Events Plugin’s features?

Any confirmation or correction would be appreciated so I can plan whether to:

- Stick with the Pavilion plugin and use Ember 3 fallback
- Switch to the official Calendar/Events in core
- Migrate to a different actively maintained fork
