Guys, I’ve started working on a migration script from the Events plugin to the Official Discourse Calendar events plugin. Its starting to look good, but I need some feedback to get it to a stage where it is production ready.
Hi @angus. I’m struggling to get an effective side-by-side comparison between of functionality this and the now official Discourse events plugin.
I’ve use your impressive events pluggin on one site and am pleased with how that’s worked. Are they compatible if I migrate from one to the other or will I lose the events?
I’ve recently started another site and I’m wondering whether I’d be better using the official one. I’m on a hosted forum so would need to ask to swap out plugins. Is there a post of blog comparing the features somewhere? I’m worried by the implication this version will no longer be supported or developed.
We made the move ages ago. Unfortunately the Discourse team has had other priorities and have not been working on the Discourse Events plugin for a while. Many of us are impatiently awaiting some more development as we see the potential!!
@fzngagan Is currently working on, and getting close to completing a migration script to transfer events from our plugin to the Discourse Event plugin. You can follow the progress on that here
As @nathank mentioned, our poicy for the plugin, as stated in the OP is that we encourage people to consider the other plugin as we won’t be actively developing this plugin. We will be maintaining it in its current state for the foreseeable future, however as we are supporting some specific use cases that are not supported by the other plugin. If that plugin adds support for those use cases we will deprecate this plugin entirely and migrate some folks to the other one, using the migration script that Faiz has been working on.
We use the Discourse Event plugin internally, not this one. Personally, I also think it’s a better plugin from a technical perspective.
While it was looking very promising, and indeed we abandoned this plugin for it, it is missing a couple of key features which really limits its utility. They are:
Interacting with a user’s email calendar via pushing out .ics files
I don’t believe we will be doing further work on this plugin but we do definitely have plans to do additional work on the Events piece. I have opened that other topic so that we can continue discussion.
لا أعرف ما إذا كانت هذه مشكلة أم أنني أفتقد نوعًا ما من التكامل، ولكن كيف يُفترض أن يعمل زر “الاشتراك”؟ عندما أنقر عليه، أرى عنواني URL (جزئيين) ولكن لا يمكنني التفاعل معه بأي شكل من الأشكال؟
إذا كنت تستخدم أحدث إصدار من المكون الإضافي و Discourse tests-passed، فعند النقر فوق الروابط، سيتم نسخها إلى الحافظة الخاصة بك. سترى علامة علم خضراء صغيرة بجوار النافذة المنبثقة (فوقها على الهاتف المحمول)
مرحباً بالجميع، يبدو لي أن هذه الإضافة تسبب حاليًا مشكلة في تحميل الصور - (مع الاعتذار في حالة حدوث أي تشخيص خاطئ) - اعترف بأنني كنت أستخدم إصدار angusmcleod/discourse-events على github بدلاً من paviliondev.discourse-events، لذا قد يكون مجرد إصدار قديم؟
كنت أستخدم إصدار /paviliondev/discourse-events وهو يعطل إمكانية تحميل الصور في المنشئ (أو يجب أن أقول إن أحدث إصدار من Discourse قد عطّل نفسه ضد المكون الإضافي للأحداث.) يرجى تقديم المشورة.
أنا الآن أعود إلى 2.9.0.beta8 مقابل 2.9.0.beta9، تم اختباره على بيئات أخرى، 2.9.0.beta8 والمكون الإضافي للأحداث معًا يسمحان بتحميل الصور من خلال محرر WYSIWYG للمنشئ مرة أخرى.
