Plugin de Eventos 📅

[angus (Angus McLeod)]

Did you upgrade to the latest version of the plugin? That url generated by the google calendar button looks like the old version.

[ChrisBeach (Chris)]

@angus

The all day bug should be fixed now. Let me know how you go.

Thanks @Angus, all fixed. Really appreciate your continued support of these plugins.

[tran]

thx!!!@angus The update problem .Everything’s OK now!!!

[adorfer (Andreas Dorfer)]

@angus

There were a few issues with adding to Google Calendar, some on my side, some weirdness with Google Calendar. Everything should work now.

That is great! Thanks a lot!

[ChrisBeach (Chris)]

Another minor bug (sorry @Angus).

The multi-day event (shown in pink below) should end in October, but this isn’t the case in the Calendar view:

The event: https://se23.life/t/horniman-exhibition-colour-the-rainbow-revealed/7546

[angus (Angus McLeod)]

Thanks, multi-month events will work properly now.

Example: https://discourse.angusmcleod.com.au/t/the-262-day-challenge/307
Calendar: https://discourse.angusmcleod.com.au/c/events/l/calendar?end=2018-04-01&start=2018-02-25

Hi,I met a problem.I don’t want all the users’ topics to be created in the category on a calendar, and I just want to know each user’s agenda. I just has an idea: when the category slug is personal, calendar and agenda are not displayed in the category. For it’s personnal, it’s just showed in the personal page. You have your own agenda but everyone can read it。

This is just my imagination

[angus (Angus McLeod)]

While that’s an interesting idea, it’s a little bit outside the scope of this plugin at the moment. One thing I don’t want to do is build something that overlaps with the functionality of existing calendars.

Could you explain more about why you want calendars for individual people in Discourse itself, as opposed to just using Google Calendar or a similar personal calendar product for this?

[tobiaseigen]

Maybe you could simply extend the events plugin so it can also work with personal messages - so discourse groups can have calendars and users can set up events with one or more other users. This could be pretty amazing for organizing AMAs (we’re doing an AMA next week - let’s brainstorm some seed questions here on xyz date), PM conversations (let’s meet here in this message tomorrow at 5 to talk over xyz), webinars or other community-level events without turning to google calendar and outlook, and all the hilarity and confusion that still results from doing that with people you don’t schedule meetings with on a regular basis.

But bike shedding, scope creep and all that. This is what you get for creating a nifty plugin.

@angus

Yes, iCal feeds…I have avoided them so far because the last time I oversaw adding them into an app it resulted in multiple user complaints, mainly because Google Calendar has a hard-coded 24-hour iCal feed sync cycle

Maybe.

:Clasped-hands: Pretty please! Feed delay is of no concern for my use, but this feature is the last thing I’m waiting for before installing…

[angus (Angus McLeod)]

I’ve added full ical feed support (site and category calendars) and upgraded the rss support to include categories.

https://github.com/angusmcleod/discourse-events/commit/21d898fa6d13c3c2677e820cdc3f5a7afd0a4a7a

There’s now a ‘Subscribe’ button on the right above site and category calendars. Clicking this presents the iCal and RSS feed urls for this calendar localised to whatever timezone you’re currently in.

Example urls:

Site:

• ical: webcal://discourse.angusmcleod.com.au/calendar.ics?time_zone=Asia/Singapore
• rss: discourse.angusmcleod.com.au/calendar.rss?time_zone=Asia/Singapore

Category:

• ical: webcal://discourse.angusmcleod.com.au/c/events/l/calendar.ics?time_zone=Asia/Singapore
• rss: discourse.angusmcleod.com.au/c/events/l/calendar.rss?time_zone=Asia/Singapore

These urls can be used in any Calendar or RSS client, e.g. Google Calendar.

[mikechristopher]

Must say I love how this is evolving into such a great plugin @angus Thank you!

I cannot wait to get our forum upgraded from stable in order to take advantage of all the new features and calendar you have added recently!

[ChrisBeach (Chris)]

Hi @Angus,

I’ve recently started seeing internal server errors across my forum which caused the following pages to return errors to all users:

• /unread
• /new
• /topics/private-messages/[username]

I disabled the plugin and all is well.

The stacktrace is below.

In case it’s relevant, I had just deleted a long-term member of the forum (on their request) - so possibly some data gremlins?

[tobiaseigen]

Nice work. With the ical feed support, looks like you’ve addressed just about every single one of my suggestions above. Wow! Thank you!

@tobiaseigen

on the agenda view, I am missing the ability to toggle the chronological sort order of events (newest first, last first)

This one you did not do, but perhaps intentionally/not worth the effort.

@tobiaseigen

in my community, many topics across the community are about events with dates… but I think it might be a bit overkill to allow every member to add them to their topics. it might also be distracting. so maybe allow events across all categories but limit the ability to add event dates to staff or by trust level? we could then add the dates later. or put it a toggle in the composer options when editing the OP for a topic, to bury the feature so it is less distracting/confusing? (your location plugin options could also be buried in this way, perhaps) Edit: ah, I see this is being discussed over there. here’s my reply.

Also, I have yet to install it on my instance so can’t tell if this has been done. I know you allow events across categories, but I don’t know about limiting the ability to add event dates to staff or by trust level.

I thought I had asked somewhere about a calendar nav and don’t recall you responding. Something along the lines of TODAY PREVIOUS MONTH NEXT MONTH - like the screenshot below from google calendar. It’s easy to get lost in a calendar and such links can be a big help to orient oneself.

And finally, I think I might have noticed a minor bug. When you select “x more” it opens up a lovely full view for the day. Select on “x more” on another day and it stays open. Close one of them and it closes all of them. Seems to me that when you select “x more” on another day the previously opened day should close.

** edit ** also just noticed that the SUBSCRIBE button doesn’t work until you log in. Is that intentional or a bug? On that note, it occurs to me that subscribing to private categories will probably not work, right? The URL would have to include some sort of API key.

[angus (Angus McLeod)]

Thanks for the report. Should work regardless of any data irregularities now.

skip_before_action if behaves strangely && add extra check for event

@tobiaseigen Thanks for the feedback.

@tobiaseigen

on the agenda view, I am missing the ability to toggle the chronological sort order of events (newest first, last first)

This one you did not do, but perhaps intentionally/not worth the effort.

Yeah this one is TBD as I think it’s a relatively marginal use case.

@tobiaseigen

I don’t know about limiting the ability to add event dates to staff or by trust level.

This is not literally possible yet (you could achieve a version of this through category-level permissions), but the more I think about it, the more I like it. I’ll take a crack at it soon.

@tobiaseigen

I thought I had asked somewhere about a calendar nav and don’t recall you responding. Something along the lines of TODAY PREVIOUS MONTH NEXT MONTH - like the screenshot below from google calendar.

Yes, this has been on my mind. Will add this too.

@tobiaseigen

Seems to me that when you select “x more” on another day the previously opened day should close.

Yup that’s a bug, will fix.

@tobiaseigen

also just noticed that the SUBSCRIBE button doesn’t work until you log in.

Yes, that was intentional. I think it’s not necessary now however. I’ll remove the check for a current user.

@tobiaseigen

On that note, it occurs to me that subscribing to private categories will probably not work, right? The URL would have to include some sort of API key.

Yup, that’s right. It’s not currently possible to subscribe to calendars in categories with restricted ‘see’ permissions.

[ChrisBeach (Chris)]

@angus

Thanks for the report. Should work regardless of any data irregularities now.

Thanks for the fix @angus. I’ve scheduled it to upgrade at a quiet time overnight.

[tran]

THX for replying.

@angus

Could you explain more about why you want calendars for individual people in Discourse itself, as opposed to just using Google Calendar or a similar personal calendar product for this?

Individual people‘s calendar makes the list of a specific category clear at a glance.I want to know clearly that everyone continues to update or punch in this category.The specific category is based on a wide range of community purposes.For it is different from other categories, and its content is even one of the highlights of your discourse.

Embedding Google Calendar in discourse, As far as I know，to allow all visitors to see your calendar, you have to make the calendar’s access authority public.That means all your private agendas will be exposed.That’s terrible.

[tobiaseigen]

Good stuff all around.

@angus

Yup, that’s right. It’s not currently possible to subscribe to calendars in categories with restricted ‘see’ permissions.

Makes sense. So maybe remove/suppress the subscribe button from private categories?

[angus (Angus McLeod)]

@tobiaseigen

I don’t know about limiting the ability to add event dates to staff or by trust level.

This has been added:

Add event creation trust levels

This restriction has been added to the guardian and, if used, will apply regardless of how the event is created (e.g. via client or api)

@tobiaseigen

Something along the lines of TODAY PREVIOUS MONTH NEXT MONTH - like the screenshot below from google calendar
…
the SUBSCRIBE button doesn’t work until you log in … subscribing to private categories will probably not work

Full nav has been added and subscribe button visibility has been fixed. The subscribe button will appear for guests, but won’t appear in categories with restricted view permissions.

Improved navigation and full year support

The year selector contains the current, previous and next years.

@tobiaseigen

Seems to me that when you select “x more” on another day the previously opened day should close.

This has been fixed:

Ensure expanded days close if new ones open

[ChrisBeach (Chris)]

@angus

Should work regardless of any data irregularities now.

That has successfully fixed the problem I was seeing. Thanks for the speedy turnaround @angus
