second block is the events to come

this is not a seperate engine, just custom content for each posts… easy to configure, and any poster can use it… no need to learn a new machine.

with the functions included in the product, you can create a complete page with all these details… i’m building one right now for the site you visited… i’ll show you later today

Temporarly I am using the one nexia recommended. It is good, simple and clean.

I used Erwin’s Plugin at first, but it is pretty disappointing until now (and I followed it from the beginning). I hope there will come a “ultimate” event-tool for BP with all the features Erwin was thinking about at first ! I am still saying this although there was a life-sign on Erwins Page in the last days…

I’ve used http://wpcal.firetree.net/ and what I like about it is that the event is associated with a post for the additional details. The events added using this plugin will be automatically integrated in user’s activity stream because events are created via published Posts.

Setting up events would work easily if you allow access to main site’s dashboard so all logged-in users can add new post with the event information. That solves everything. Thing is, I don’t want users going anywhere near the backend of the main site where BP is installed

What would be ideal is an add-on to the plugin with frontend interface for logged-in users who do not have blogs. They could add the event information in the BP area. Those who have blogs could add events from their own dashboard Write/Edit panel.

One just needs a way to aggregate events posted in blogs to seamlessly integrate with events posted from BP front-end interface. That way, all events whether posted in BP area or user blogs will appear in order for Upcoming Events list and/or big calendar.
