NEW FORUM CALENDAR for rides

[Dave]

I've been debating with myself if this might be useful or not and would like to know what you lot think. If it's a popular idea I will try to implement it.

Basically it would be a way of displaying all of the events or proposed rides which get posted onto the forum for discussion.

When someone creates a new event or a ride it can be linked to the calendar for quick reference by all of our members.

Something like this...

Good idea, how/where would you display it?

[Dave]

Not sure yet dude. Lets see if I can actually get it working first. I've been working on it today, you may have noticed the forum a bit glitchy at times as I was restarting webservices.

Where ever I put it I will try to be smart about t.

Is this not a bit superfluous?

All of those that have smartphones (which must be in the high 90%) have a calendar facility. Those that work in offices have Outlook that will sync with their smartphone

Call me organised if you want, but when I see a run on the forum that I want to join, I request a space and insert that in my personal calendar. Easy

I. like many others on the site appreciate what you have done Dave, but I feel you are wasting your time on something that will only be used for a short time after its introduction. Your time would be better spent trying to clear some of the porn off my PC

[Dave]

You are probably right. I'd feel bad for the 10% who might be voting haha

If the calendar does seem impractical due to technical reasons and lack of interest I could be persuaded to leave it be.

Looks like a very good idea. Be very useful.

This would be a great help to all new members.

Yes, will you have time to build this Dave.

[AJAG]

I agree that having all the proposed rides in one place is the way to go.

[Billy]

Does the system we have now not work ? If its not broke don`t fix it.

Is 'Rides and Meets' not 'one' place?

Will this be another hoop to jump through for those that lead rides....

[AJAG]

Sorry, by one place I meant have all listed in chronological order. Yes Rides and Meets is one place but they are arranged in the order they get replies. I assume that it will be easier for leaders to open the calendar up and see what days are available/not taken than trying to piece together all the relevant topics. That is basically what I meant.
