    This is an auto-generated topic for Events 1.0.1-Finale by coroico.

    Events browse and display events (described as Modx document) by time period.
    Events are managed and scheduled through mxcalendar module.

    Each mxCalendar event is linked to a modx document. Then you could browse these documents by day, by week or by month.
    All the pages could be customized throught templates, placeholders and modifiers.

    Events could be used to set up web sites to promote cultural events, sporting manifestations, promotional show cases, ...

    This component has been developed for a French web agency for a web site. It is used to display the programmation of show events of a Concert Hall.
    Thanks to them to release back this snippet to the Modx community.

    Events runs with Evo from 1.0.2 to 1.0.5 release. Events 1.0.1 fix a bug and add a new parameter: timeZone.

    Read the Events cheatsheet for more informations.

      Thanks for your snippet, for letting us customize the output of our event lists. With mxCalendar its not quite like that.
      However, I’m really missing the +evt.event_enddate+ placeholder. Do you plan to implement it later?

        To be honest, I didn’t need it.

        If this placeholder is missing, yes I could implement it in the next release.

          Hi There,

          Thanks for extending mxcalendar. One little thing....How do you use it? I pored over the cheatsheat, but a step by step tutorial would be immensely helpful. I don’t need pictures, but a little more detail would be crazy helpful. I created an event in mxcalendar, linked it to a specific document, then put the basic snippet call on another resource and there was no output. Can you give an example?

          Many Thanks,

          Noah
