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.
Its sitting on a branch migration currently.
Here’s the info:
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.
With good reason - as per Angus in the OP:
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!!
Hey @Rhidian,
@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.
The closest thing to that is this post of mine

Thanks @angus That’s very helpful.
I think you intended to post it to 🗓 Discourse Event
yes indeed. sorry for the noise. please remove if possible. thanks!
@angus does the plugin work with tags and tags intersection?
I will read through while I await your response.
I’ve noticed that the development of the Event features in the Discourse Calendar plugin appears to have stopped. You’ll note that it is now referred to as ‘alpha’:
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:
Would you consider reviving this plugin? Or even better, looking at doing some work on Event features in the Discourse Calendar plugin ?
I believe (perhaps naively) that we could raise funds to do this.
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.

好的，谢谢！
也许鼠标指针在悬停时需要更改，以表明这是一种可能性？
此插件导致回复预览中断
嘿 @kday，那是来自这个插件（一个不同的插件）的截图
大家好，似乎此插件目前正在破坏图像上传功能（如果误诊，敬请谅解）- 诚然，我使用的是 angusmcleod/discourse-events GitHub 版本，而不是 paviliondev.discourse-events 版本，所以这可能只是一个过时的版本？
我正在使用 /paviliondev/discourse-events 版本，它破坏了 composer 图片上传功能（或者说，最新版本的 Discourse 与 events 插件不兼容。）请提供建议。
我现在正在回滚到 2.9.0.beta8 而不是 2.9.0.beta9，在其他环境中测试过，2.9.0.beta8 和 events 插件一起可以再次通过 Composer WYSIWYG 上传图片。
