The JEvents package includes the main component, several modules and plugins to provide a feature rich solution to cover all of your event / calendar needs. Here is a quick rundown of what is included:

Events Component

  • One-off Events and complex repeat patterns of events that can be created and viewed in an attractive calendar and a variety of list formats
  • Multiple design layouts possible and customisable as we follow the Joomla! template override standards.
  • Fully compatible with Joomla MVC framework
  • iCal imports and exports of events and calendars - import a calendar from Google and from your phone and present the merged list of events in a singular calendar or event list view
  • Repeat event exception handling - remove one event repeat or change the event repeat date, the repeat time or the event description etc.
    • Support all day events or events with no end times
  • Events can be placed in multiple categories and calendar views that can be customised to show events from all or some of these categories
  • Optional checking for overlapping events on a global or category specific basis - so you can block event creation when the new event overlaps with an existing event

Custom layouts editor

If you're not happy with the default output - we offer a unique Layout editing tool to perfect the presentation of your single event pages, event lists and calendar views of your events. With just some basic HTML and CSS you can really customise the whole page to create the perfect event calendar for your needs

  • Edit how to display your events in: Events Detail page, Event List views or in the Monthly Calendar cells.
  • You can even customise the event editing page to make it easier for your users to submit events or edit an existing event
  • Custom layouts can be category specific, so your sports events can be laid out differently to your music events etc.
  • Running a multilingual site? Your layouts can also be language specific!! You can create translations of your events too so your visitors will see the details of each event in their own language.

Modules

  • Event Calendar module provides you with a basic monthly calendar view. Coloured to highlight when events are occurring and links to day lists of events or directly to single events.
  • Latest events module (List of events) which gives a highly configurable summary of upcoming events, recently created events or popular events
  • Events legend (Category List) - displayed alongside the component gives you a summary of event categories and an easy way to limit the events shown to specific categories
  • Filter module allows you to filter/search the events being displayed using a variety of search filters which are selectable within the module.

Events Search Plugin

  • A search plugin that enables the global Joomla search to search from the events in your event calendar

Availability

JEvents has been powering event and calendar functionality on Joomla websites since 2006 and we have helped countless users to get their website running with a fully functional events / calendar system and will keep on providing JEvents for the foreseeable future. We are passionate about Joomla! and have been from the beginning so we are not going anywhere soon.

JEvents 3.4 is available for general download - this is a Joomla 3.x native component that takes JEvents to the next level using jQuery and Bootstrap.

Addons Available

Free and paid extensions are available to further extend the functionality of JEvents from our site and from 3rd party developers. You can therefore further and enhance your events management and presentation capabilities.

I am new to Joomla! and this was my first extension. I'm using Joomla 1.5.2 and initially downloaded the wrong JEvents version (I neede version 1.4.3RC). I posted a question on the JEvents forum and received a quick and helpful answer. Once I got the right version, everything worked perfectly. It is very easy to use and will allow me to have my users enter in their own events.



I didn't like the default colors, but they were easy to change by editing the CSS file. The new version they are working on will have a choice of color schemes built in, which will be nice.



I recommend this product, even for a newbie like me.

One of my favs!

We are starting an events road tour for our products and found your Calendar to be hot and very cool for our site as we found in our testing and will soon be publishing it. Keep up the great work.

Simply Superb

Very easy to install.

Easy configuration and maintenance of the component.

To summarize, this is a great extension.

I am trying to figure out how to add multiple images to the event.(Like event pictures)

Very Good!

Installed easily. Setup easily. Very customizable. I am looking forward to 1.5 release for Joomla! 1.5 and the improvements I see there.

installers too complex



Posted on 14 March 2008
the download page is way too complex! Why no simple one piece installer like other add-ons?
For the newest version for J 1.5



Simple to install and set up, easy to configure and set categories. The one draw back is the need for iCal to make repeating events. When I tried to set on up there was no table in my database for it, and I'm unable to find the iCal that works with this. (I'm still looking for it, though.)



I'd recommend this to people that need to list events, with the suggestion that they find the iCal first, or be ready to input repeating events multiple times.
Owner's reply: Did you follow the installation guidelines for 1.5 at http://www.jevents.net/content/view/32/5/lang,en_GB/
This will create the necessary tables for you.
Geraint has struck gold here! v1.4.3 was amazing, but if you see what is in store with v1.5 you simply can't deny that this is the best calendaring option for Joomla out there! Get this extension and be patient as the 1.5alpha is developed... it is more than worth it!

Repeating Events



Posted on 09 February 2008
As almost all of my events will be repeating events, I need a calendar that will provide a lot of flexibility for repeating events. This looks like it does that with a couple of exceptions.



When scheduling an event the repeating part only lets you specify repeating events if you have the start and end dates of the event span multi-day.



This results in the events showing up in the caledar as multi-day events even though they are only an hour long.



It also doesn't provide for true multi-day events that repeat (e.g. a 3 day event that happens every month.

It is trying to provide repeating capability with too little controls.



It should have controls for how long the event is and separate controls for how often the event repeats and for how long the repetition occurs (# of repeats or start and end dates for repeats).
Owner's reply: JEvents 1.5 enables you to do all this and more.
I am using this calendar on my site, but there are a few things I'd like to see -- primarily I'd like the mini calendar to allow one to scroll to the next month (and show the next month on the mini-calendar rather than just changing the large calendar on the page.) My main complaint is a lack of support for the program. I am new to Joomla and a novice at much of this. I had a few little difficulties and questions come up & I found little or no support from the developer. On the forums, I found it difficult to get an answer to my questions. With other Joomla extensions, I found much more willing helpers.
