Enhancements in Advanced Events Plugin
Events form an important part of social networks and we are glad that our "Advanced Events Plugin" enables many online communities to have rich events. We have released some great enhancements in this plugin which will increase its usability and performance:
1) Compatibility with "Mobile / Tablet Plugin": This provides an attractive mobile interface for "Advanced Events Plugin". It is now much easier and engaging for users of your website to browse, view and RSVP to events of your community on mobiles and tablets. [Note: To enable this enhancement on your site, please upgrade the "Mobile / Tablet Plugin" on your site to its latest version available in your SocialEngineAddOns Client Area.]
2) New "Invite Guests Page" option in the "Redirection after Event Creation" administration setting allows you to re-direct event owners to the "Invite Guests" page just after event creation, to easily invite people to their events.
3) Friends on "My Events" page: On the "My Events" page, members can now see their friends who are also attending the events to which they are invited / are attending.
4) New "Allow Reviews on Guests" Setting enables you to allow site members to rate and review guests of events of selected categories. You can enable / disable this setting from the "Categories" section in the administration of this plugin.
This enhancement is very useful for events of categories like: "Bike Racing", "Dance Competition", etc, where you would want users to be able to rate and review event participants.
5) Speed Improvement and other Optimizations: We have done code optimizations for speed improvement of this plugin:
~ Database Table Indexing: Improves speed of data retrieval operations on the database tables.
~ AJAX based loading of widgets: We have given a new setting in the widgets from this plugin using which you can choose to load these widgets via AJAX.
~ We have implemented caching in the Category Widgets to speed up their loading.
Note: To get these enhancements on your website, please upgrade this plugin on your site to its latest version available in your SocialEngineAddOns Client Area.
