Calender which allows a website visitor to add events

Hi is anyone aware of how to enable visitors, on the front-end of a website, to add events to a calendar in MODx?

Thanks heaps!

The term "calendar" means different things to different people. What do you want yours to look like?

I have a front-end editor for adding events to a list of events as part of the PubKit snippet, which I’m working on to make it fit for offering to the community. See http://www.pogwatch.com/pkBlog.html for some idea what that’s about, and post in the "in development" thread for some screenshots. I expect to be working on "pkEvents", covering aspects of PubKit specifically for events lists, over the next week or two, if you’re not in too much of a hurry.

You could do something like that with Gregorian, which I’m working on. It’s not implemented, but adding a parameter for "everyone’s admin" is only a few lines of PHP.

(There might be a bit more work in removing the rights to edit/delete, which you’d probably be interested in, but it’s without doubt possible.)

Check the topic http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php?topic=38535.0 and the demo site: http://gregorian.kleistsvendsen.dk

Thanks kp52 and Kleist for your replies.
I look forward to your snippets being released!

You probably don’t want to let anonymous visitors post spam on your calendar so you’ll want a login.

Another option is to just create a new account at Google and create a Google calendar. It’s easy to display the calendar on your page and you can give people the login credentials to add, delete, and edit events at Google. It’s not the best looking calendar in the world but it’s not horrible and it couldn’t be easier to implement.

I’m using Google calendar for our church site (http://www.fbcjax.com). It’s using Expression Engine currently, but will be shifting to ModX in the next few months - as I’ve just found and fallen in love with Mrs. X a few days ago . Just taking the iFrame code with the calendar ID as a selectable variable (holding the calendar ID)...that way I can pick which calendar I need to show, and keep everything in one template. I know there have to be better ways, but this was really simple and easy to manage.

ModX will give the same exact manageability. The Google calendar works really well for our needs.

Hi there,

have you seen this Snippet?: http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php?topic=34824.0

I had. I’ve not looked at it in detail, though. Looks to be a cleaner way. The site is using Expression Engine now, though, so for the transition to ModX, I’ll look at using that plug-in. Thx
