Hi all!
I wrote a extension for showing newest events on the Homepage.
Downloadable from here:
http://unoamigo.de/extension/ext.new_events.zip
You may have to change the TPL file for the appeareance 
There is a discussion in this thread how to add the Event-Pics to this extension.
On page tree there is the whole code and the line which has o be modified.

Can you tell us, this mod for which V2.2 or V 2.3 ???
Hi!
I am using vld 2.2.1 . I have not tested it yet in the newer Versions.
How can we call the new events on the homepage? I tried this but does not work. 
{new_events:events=4,characters=300}

There are two parameters you can use : events and cache_time.
If you want to limit the characters try this for example in the TPL-file :
{trim:event_description,10,""}I still can not understand. I just want to call the extension. I added
{new_events:events=4} to show the latest 4 events but I get an error like this one
:
"Fatal error: Call to undefined function: rundeck_hell_content_open() in ...../templates/webby2/tmp/ext_new_events_tpl.php on line 25"

Ok, you have to change the TPL-File... there are some special functions in my TPL-file I am using and forgot to remove. You can just delete the call of the function in the TPL-file.
You can edit it... its just simpel HTML, for example you can take the new_members-extension TPL-File.
Watch at my first thread

does the picture on the events show up?
does the picture on the events show up?
No, I have just implemented the text, title, date etc.
how can i edit it so that the pictures shows up?
how can i edit it so that the pictures shows up?
Sorry for delayed answer. For the Picture you have to modify the SQL String in the PHP file and set a new replace tag in the file. I can not look for that exactly at moment because I have formatted my computer and will take some time until vld is installed again.
okey tahnx... i will wait
Append this to the .php file in the while-loop
$fields[$i]['pic_link'] = $profile_obj->field_4 ? $PREFS->conf['thumbnail_prefix'].$profile_obj->field_4 : "";and somethink like this to the accoording .tpl file between the <!-- BEGIN ext_new_events --> part.
<img src="{top.virtual_path}{pic_link}">I could not test it perfectly because I have currently no events with Pics at moment.
ok thankx i will try it later..
ahsen the picture dosent show up...when i use the abow here what i did.. se if i put the code abowe right:

Hm, I can not determine why it does not function.
But you should try some debugging and for example let echo wheter the filename is shown right.
Is the filename then echoed? I tried this and the additional line in the php file read showed me the correct name.
Further more you should check the table vld_events_data in MySQL and be sure that the column with the picture name is setted as "field_4". May be the name of the column is different.

it shows like this
in the databse
INSERT INTO nasim_events_data (data_id, field_1, field_2, field_3, field_4) VALUES('15', 'Gent', 'PERSIAN VIP PARTY \n\nGent \nWondelgemstraat 21, 9000 Gent \n \nStart: 22.00 \nEnd: 05.00 \n\n \nDJ Tupic, DJ Pedram, DJ Aria \nTel: 0032.487.589.353', 'DJ Tupic, DJ Pedram, DJ Aria \nTel: 0032.487.589.353', '276_picture_gox2etud4drj5fn4ebqruh9a1jcboutv.jpg');Last edited by nasim___ (2008-02-26 03:25:44)
OK, the column field_4 contains the pic_filename. Then I have no more idea why the filename is not read by the .php file.
I tried the additional line myself and it worked.
Just trie to debug wheter the name is read or not by the .php file, then we could go go on.
Ahsen can you try the code on your vld personal, se if its workes
php code:
<?
$data = array(
'name' => 'Show latest events',
'about' => 'This extension allows you to display latest events.',
'author' => 'UnoAmigo',
'email' => 'kontakt@unoamigo.de',
'help' => 'NA',
'website' => 'www.unoamigo.de',
);
function vldext_new_events ($params = array())
{
global $DB, $SESSION, $PREFS,$TEMPLATE,$CACHE;
$limit = isset($params['limit']) ? $params['limit'] : '4';
$cache_time = isset($params['cache_time']) && $params['cache_time'] ? intval($params['cache_time']) :0;
$fields = array();
if ( ($fields = $CACHE->get("ext", "new_events".$cache_name)) === false )
{
$result = $DB->query("SELECT e.*, d.*, m.username, m.screenname FROM "
. DB_PREFIX . "events AS e, "
. DB_PREFIX . "members AS m, "
. DB_PREFIX . "events_data as d
WHERE e.member_id=m.member_id
AND e.event_id=d.data_id
ORDER BY e.event_id DESC LIMIT $limit");
if ( $DB->num_rows($result) )
{
$i = 0;
while( $profile_obj = $DB->fetch_object($result) )
{
$fields[$i]['event_id'] = $profile_obj->event_id;
$fields[$i]['event_name'] = $profile_obj->name;
$fields[$i]['event_description'] = $profile_obj->field2;
$fields[$i]['member_screenname'] = htmlentities2utf8($profile_obj->screenname);
$fields[$i]['pic_link'] = $profile_obj->field_4 ? $PREFS->conf['thumbnail_prefix'].$profile_obj->field_4 : "";
$fields[$i]['event_link'] = $PREFS->conf['fancy_urls'] ? ($PREFS->conf['fancy_homepages'] ? $profile_obj->username : "member/".$profile_obj->event_id."/") : "index.php?m=events&p=details&id=" . $profile_obj->event_id;
$i++;
}
}
$CACHE->put("ext", "new_events".$cache_name, $cache_time, $fields);
}
$TEMPLATE->assign("ext_new_events", $fields);
$TEMPLATE->output('ext.new_events.tpl');
}
?>tpl file:
<div class="ext_thumbnails">
<div class="flatgrid1">
<div class="single1">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="flatgrid1">
<tr>
<!-- BEGIN ext_new_events -->
<td class="item" align="center">
<div class="image">

<B><h3></a></h3><B>
</div>
</td>
<!-- END ext_new_events -->
</tr>
</table>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>and the code that bring the events: {new_events:events=4}

Yes it works...
But try this line
$fields[$i]['pic_link'] = $profile_obj->field_4 ? $profile_obj->field_4 : "";
instead this line
$fields[$i]['pic_link'] = $profile_obj->field_4 ? $PREFS->conf['thumbnail_prefix'].$profile_obj->field_4 : "";
thanx ahsen it worked...... your the best
