CalendarExtras
CalendarExtras adds some features to hopefully make the ingame calendar a bit more bearable to use.
Features
Sorting by role
Adds fourth sorting method to the create/view event windows, that lets you sort the invite-list by role (tank/healer/melee/ranged). People of the same role are hardcoded to first be sorted by status and lastly by name.
You can change roles by right-clicking the player in question and selecting the bottom option Set Role
Extra status indicators
Shows a check mark next to players who are in the group already, and dims offline players.
Export invitees
Adds a tab at the bottom of the event window which pops up an editbox, letting you copy out basic data of the event and a formatted list of the invited players.
Another editbox is included to set the format of each line. Valid tokens are: NAME, LEVEL, CLASS, STATUS, RANK, MOD and %t for the tab-character
Mass-select
Select multiple people from the invite-list like you would in any standard GUI. Use shift/ctrl to range/add-to select. All the right-click menu options apply to all the selected players
Invite-raid
Invite the current raid to a new or existing event, either by right-clicking the Invite button, or going to the Mass Invite screen, and selecting Invite current raid/party.
Note: This feature is horrendously slow, and I'm not sure if it can be made any faster, so you will have to wait a few extra seconds if you're inviting all 25 players.

Posted Oct 26, 2013Damn it, I wanted to set the addon as abandoned and it seems to have now removed the Curse page of it along with comments there. Sorry about that.
Anyways, I just wanted to say that I took a long break from WoW and still have no motivation to work on this, sorry, so I've set it to "abandoned" and license is now public domain. If anyone else wants to take it over then feel free to do so.

Ok, everything should be working now. Project repo is using Mercurial, Dridzt's MoP fixes were merged in and packager seems to have pushed out the new version. Let me know if there's still bugs in it. I tested it ingame for a bit and it seemed to work fine.
I changed the project repository to be open now, so small patch-day fixes can be committed without my intervention (I hope), but I'd prefer to be asked before bigger changes of course and so on :)

Posted Sep 10, 2012School and GW2 has been taking too much of my time lately :(
I'm going to make some changes to the repository. First of all I'm going to change it to a Mercurial repo as I've been using Mercurial for everything else for a good while now, I will also make the repo open for other people. I should have done that a long time ago...
When it all works, I'll import Dridzt's fixes and push out a fixed version. Thanks for your patience!

Posted Sep 4, 2012Would like to see this very useful addon updated for 5.x.
If the original author has gone inactive, can you open the repo to allow fan updates?

Posted Jul 24, 2013It's been nearly a year now, how's the update(s) coming along? I'm interested in using this, but I'd prefer if it was up to date.

Posted Jan 13, 2012Even though the description says this works with 4.3, that is incorrect, there are 2 parts to the addon, CalenderExtras, and CalenderExtrasModues,
The second part (Modues) is out of date, and the first part doesn't seem to function at all if the second isn't also loaded.
The export function doesn't work, You just get a big blank text input box. which doesn't help with exporting in any way.
The Class and signed up filter tabs do nothing.
About the only pat of the addon that functions properly is the ability to see who that has signed up is actualy online.

Posted Jan 24, 2012Hey, thanks for the report. Modules indeed was marked as out of date, I forgot to bump its version while I did it to the main addon.
Modules indeed has to be enabled. CalendarExtras itself is more like a loader, it has to do with how addons work, I couldn't figure out how to do certain things if I had it all in one. Anyways, it shouldn't give any errors if modules are disabled, it just won't do anything.
I just tried it myself and export is working fine for me, is there any more info you could give me? English version of WoW or something else? Does it not work with any events at all or just some particular ones etc etc.Ah I see, it breaks if the event is not a raid event, I'll investigate.By class and signed filter tabs you mean the thingies that let you sort the list of invitees by class or status right? That's working fine for me too, odd.

Posted Sep 14, 2010Myself and another raid leader were messing around with it and it didn't seem to share our changes with each other.
Probably the other suggestion for probably a future expansion to this addon would be like a small note icon just after the role column. One could then store notes there about the raider. For example, a note for one of the raiders could be, 'Won Token on 19th' - This note could be set up two ways, one way would be for that event only or carried on for every event so if that player is re-invited, the saved note would pop up and we could read it and straight away be told that this player won a token or whatever information we have decided to write about that player.
I'm sure the note system could be extremely useful in many other scenarios, we however would use it for bookkeeping.
Great add-on, even if none of the above suggestions come to pass, will be using it. Thank you so much for extending the calendar, appreciated. =)

Posted Jan 27, 2010I'd like to have the option to do a mass-invite for an already created Event by level or Guild-rank (like the built-in).
The way this should happen would be something like this:
Someone in Guild A makes a mass-invite for some event, then invites someone from Guild B who uses this addon. The guy from Guild B then also does a mass-invite for his members.
Would that be possible?
Anyways - thanks for a great addon

Posted Dec 15, 2009I've been managing the same guild for 3+ years now and I was responsible for all the raid planning software we have used throughout this time. (using wowraidmanager now)
I've read the other comments and I would not really like to see a sharing module, unless one can disable it. On the other hand I think the officers should be able to see the situation of any in-game event on a role basis.
I have this suggestion: Check the officer notes and look for special formatted text like {H/T} for healer/tank and if these exist, populate your addon with this data. This way no sync'ing is required and if someone does not want this feature, they just don't have to put these info in officer notes.
I am aware that this does not work for all possible uses of Calendar, but it is a nice enhancement anyway.
Regards,
Edit: creating a ticket just in case

Posted Oct 30, 2009Could another role column be added to support a second spec for those with dual specs? Such as for a pally with Prot primary spec and a Holy secondary spec you can mark Tank and Heal.

Posted Oct 24, 2009Currently, not syncing roles was a design choice for me for two reasons:
Maybe the way I envisioned the roles would be used isn't exactly what most people want and need, so I might rethink it, but there's still the huge headache of figuring out a way to reliably sync things.
I got plans, but I honestly don't know when I'm gonna get around to actually reworking the roles portion.

Posted Oct 23, 2009Another which would be useful would be a single line in the export which details where the raid is to and the server time its scheduled for.
Thanks
