Hello, Can we add the short description to a 1.6 module? I would ideally like to display all the event details in the module, including the option to purchase and share the event. Is there a way to put the entire event into a module? Thanks.

Hi

If you want to display all event detail in a module, use the solution below :

1. Use EBEvent plugin to embed the event within a Joomla article .

2. Display the article in one of the module which you can found here :

extensions.joomla.org/extensions/news-display/content-embed/498

extensions.joomla.org/extensions/news-di...y/content-embed/7528

Regards,

Tuan

Thanks for the options, not sure how to proceed because both modules are for joomla 1.5. Thanks

The other thing is that I am trying to load the current events dynamically via a module. I am not trying to get a specific event so the plugin doesn't seem to help me much unless there is a way to call current events with it. Thanks.

Well I managed to get the the event registration buttons to work inside the module but I can't seem to pull the description into the eb module. I keep trying variations of:


<div class="eb_description">

<p><?php echo $item->description ; ?></p>

</div>



<div class="eb_description">

<p><?php echo $item->short_description ; ?> </p>

</div>


But no matter how I format it, I can't seem to get the description. Thanks for any help anyone can provide; this is a show stopper for me at the moment.

So I switched to joomla 1.5 and used the module supplied above and it works well now. I have also pulled in the register button so that it displays and links from within the module. The only thing that I need to do now is make it where the eb_details table shows up in the module. I can get the event date to show but not any of the other table rows. If anyone can help me do this I would be very appreciative and perhaps we can work out some sort of compensation.

I love the component and think that it will work very nicely for my purposes once set up; one of the better component purchases that I have made, thanks.

Hunt :)
