WOO HOO [again]
Looking good so far, few little questions/suggestions:
A – Will the weekly view expand as more events are added, making the page longer like in vB, or is there a limit on the number of events that will display per day?
B – Header where the month & year is displayed, on the monthly view you have drop-downs for changing months & year, whereas on weekly view it’s just the year. I know this is work in progress here and not sure how a drop-down for changing the week would work. Perhaps, stick in the monthly drop-down as well to make it uniform, but also include left & right arrows, with text something like: < Move week >
C – It took me a while to notice the ‘monthly view’ and ‘weekly view’ links in the main navbar, perhaps these could be put in the calendar header next to the month & year display and just have a ‘calendar view’ link in the navbar instead?
D – Would is be possible to display time of event on the weekly view along with name & location of event? I know from feedback that if people are looking for something to do in the afternoon it’s a right pain clicking on events only to find they are in the morning and having to keep going back to the weekly view. Funny enough this became a common problem because some people were lazy when adding events and just selected 'single all day event' instead on selecting times.
E – I take it when you are logged-in the ‘Post new event’ button appears like it does when displayed in ‘upcoming event’ mode? Also when people are not logged in would it be possible to add a few words above or included in the ‘Sign up now!’ button that says, ‘Log in or sign up to add an event’.
F – Can you add options in adminCP, so we can select weekly/monthly or upcoming events as default display?
G – Also an option to switch off upcoming events in the forum itself? This may sound odd, as it looks great, but on my busiest calendar during peak season I can have over 100 events in a week, so it could get a bit messy in there!
I hope you don’t mind me making so many little suggestions here, but they are all designed to make the user experience as easy as possible based on feedback I’ve canvassed from users on my site.
Overall this is coming together very nicely and I can see it being a very popular add-on.
Last thing, have you had any chance to think about items 2 & 3 in my pervious post #129.
