Guys, Iâve 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. Iâm struggling to get an effective side-by-side comparison between of functionality this and the now official Discourse events plugin.
Iâve use your impressive events pluggin on one site and am pleased with how thatâs worked. Are they compatible if I migrate from one to the other or will I lose the events?
Iâve recently started another site and Iâm wondering whether Iâd be better using the official one. Iâm on a hosted forum so would need to ask to swap out plugins. Is there a post of blog comparing the features somewhere? Iâm 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 wonât 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 itâs 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 userâs email calendar via pushing out .ics files
I donât 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.
Se vocĂȘ estiver na versĂŁo mais recente do plugin e o Discourse tests-passed, ao clicar nos links, eles serĂŁo copiados para a sua ĂĄrea de transferĂȘncia. VocĂȘ verĂĄ uma pequena bandeira verde ao lado da janela modal (acima dela no celular)
⊠e outras funçÔes, quando a resposta / postagem foi iniciada clicando no botĂŁo cinza âResponderâ de uma postagem anterior. @angus , @fzngagan Obrigado pelo que puderem fazer!
OlĂĄ a todos, parece que este plugin estĂĄ atualmente quebrando o upload de imagens - (com desculpas caso haja algum diagnĂłstico incorreto) - admito que estava usando a versĂŁo do github angusmcleod/discourse-events em vez da paviliondev.discourse-events, entĂŁo pode ser simplesmente uma versĂŁo desatualizada?
Eu estou / estava usando a versĂŁo /paviliondev/discourse-events e ela quebrou a capacidade de upload de imagens do composer (ou eu deveria dizer que a versĂŁo mais recente do Discourse se quebrou contra o plugin de eventos.) Por favor, me ajude.
