Just wondering.....

Is there a calendar function available for use on vBulletin on the front page? It would be interesting to include program-related and board-related announcements for the next file days like (and some of these are made up):

August 11th:
9:00 PM - Charlie Chat (Dish 101)

August 15th:
All Day - YAPMC Free Preview

August 16th:
All Day - YAPMC Free Preview

September 1th:
DBSTalk Survivor Contest Begins

September 11th:
Patriots Day

September 18th:
8:00 PM - Survivor: Pearl Islands (CBS-Premiere)

October 1:
8:00 PM - Smallville (WB-Premiere)
9:00 PM - Angel (WB-Premiere)

October 31st:
All Day - NBA Season Begins

November 18:
8:00 PM - Two new episodes of Enterprise (UPN)

Most times EASTERN. Please check your program guide.

While I dare not suggest that every show be listed (hey, that's why we got program guides on our receivers), it would be handy for setting our PVRs and resetting the season passes, especially if it's a show that has been in several weeks of repeats or hiatus (i.e. Angel, Enterprise) or airs on a different night (i.e. special new episode airing on a different night).

Sounds like something similar to Yahoo in which has a calender you can put in your own events to shedule. It reminds you when you are on messenger at a certain time with a pop up message or sound or something.

Something like that, only it would be "public".

There is no function like that yet for the frontpage within VB3, it will be available once the Gold Release is available of the VB software.

The Calender that is available in the software is found at http://www.dbstalk.com/calendar.php?
