Since Xenforo 1.0 will not be released with a calendar, I am wondering if the calendar will be released as a paid addon or will it be released as a free upgrade such as XF 1.5 or 2.0?
Hi Guys
I am not sure why you all think vBulletin's calendar is so bad I manage to list events on it okay. It has "every third Sunday of the month", single day and several day event capabilities. I am not sure what Feldon30 meant by "handling different time zones" surely an event posted is in the time zone of the place the event is held so other time zones are irrelevant, you can hardly attend an event in a different time and space unless you are Dr Who.

It was useless because nobody uses it. Unless your community has a lot of events each month.It was indeed useless on VB because it was drastically incomplete.
In VB, you can turn off calendar, but you can't remove it from breadcrumb. The only way to do that is to modify a template. Which I did NOT like doing.It's quite possible to disable it there though and any Calendar here will I am certain be an option too.
Game Site -> track conventions -> RSVP whos going -> meet up.It was useless because nobody uses it. Unless your community has a lot of events each month.

Its more that it was nothing more then a basic calendar, and most of us needed more then it offered.
Search and a RSVP system (Both of which were requested repeatedly, and had to have mods created for them that didn't work perfectly well).Hi Forsaken
I really must be contending for dumbass of the week here but what else can you use a calendar for?
You can post events, meets, holidays, birthdays, things happening on a certain date and anything else important you need a reminder about or to inform the forum about, you can also add pictures and links to the the vBulletin calendar, it diplays in a month view or a day view and posts the events of the day on the forum home page all in all I reckon a pretty comprehensive calendar, so I don't have a problem with it.

I will have to style it, if I'm about to create styles for you.Its okay, you won't have to use it.
I choose not to answer you. But I'll let my aura show its love for your last line.Not clear what "voting" no means.
Does that mean just that you don't want one?
Or do you mean you want to stop others having one?
Personally I think this is an ideal candidate for a good mod.
Calender as Paid add-on, that's BADDDDDDDDDD... I don't know if i am going to need one but it'd annoy me if xenForo asks for money. I don't think xenForo will make that mistake esp when vB is offering it as a part of their product. xenForo has the advantage now not just because of the vB fracas but also coz of its superior UI and other technical aspects. But this might change if they start asking us to pay for every add-ons (available freely with competitors) in the future.
This may be little off-topic but i am a bit skeptical to buy multiple licenses now as i don't really know what their plans are regarding features (not considered core product by many here) like Gallery, Blogs etc.. Are they going to charge us for the same?

I'm using Google Calendar to update some TV Show listings and then embedding it in a page on our site for now: http://www.teeveetown.com/forum/index.php?pages/whatsontonight/
Now that is something I'd like to do, though have it authenticated some how (so only 1 usergroup can see it) ....... maybe obfuscate the calendar URL, or some kind of token, I'll have to think about that one.
