GC5 Event Editor

Attention Group Calendar 4 Users

Because GC5 is now final, I have moved GC4 to it's own project page here on Curse so that you can continue to update without accidentally getting GC5. The page is still pending approval from Curse admins, once it's approved I'll update this text with the URL to that page. The project will be called "Group Calendar 4" and this project is now renamed to "Group Calendar 5" for clarity.

News

"Maybe" signups coming soon! Blizzard is adding the ability to tentatively sign up for events in patch 3.3 and GC5 will be updated to support this much-needed feature. Woot!

Reporting Bugs

Feel free to report bugs in the comments section at the bottom of this page, but please remove the addon list from your logs. Those lists tend to be very large which makes it much harder for me to read and reply to other posts. I will ask for the addon list if I think it might be important or, better yet, create a CurseForge ticket and include the whole log in there instead. Thanks!

About Group Calendar 5

IMPORTANT: You must not enable Group Calendar 4 and Group Calendar 5 at the same time, neither one will be happy about it. You can switch back and forth and will not lose data in either one by doing so, you just can't enable both at once.

I have not written a manual for Group Calendar 5 yet, but the GC4 manual is available at http://wobbleworks.com/groupcalendar/manual/ and covers many of the principles used in GC5's design.

Group Calendar 5 features

  • Compatible with the built-in calendar and web-based armory calendars
  • View and edit events using local or server dates and times
  • Track tradeskill cooldowns
  • Create partnerships for coordinating events across multiple guilds
  • Export your calendar to the iCalendar format for use in external applications or web calendars
  • Reminders for upcoming events and tradeskill cooldowns
  • View events and get reminders while on your alts
  • Easy invite management to track group composition
  • Quickly invite players to the raid from the attendance list
  • Set level limits and duration for events
  • Analog clock with date on the minimap button for attractive timekeeping

Group Calendar 5 is completely re-built around the WoW calendar database. This allows it to work with the built-in calendar, including the armory web-based calendar. Also, because it works with the built-in calendar, your guild members are not required to use this addon since they can use the built-in calendar instead. They will still see your events and be able to sign up for them even if they choose to use the built-in calendar.

There is no documentation yet as I'm still working on development. The operation is similar to GC4, except that events only show up for players you invite. There is a new Invite tab in the event editor for selecting who should see the event and the selection will be remembered so that next time you create the same event you won't have to re-select it.

The multi-guild partnerships feature is different too because of the invite system the WoW calendar uses. To support multi-guild partnerships use the Partners tab in the main window to set up a roster-sharing partnership with a player in the other guild(s). Follow the instructions on that tab to set up the partnership. Once it's set up, the partner guilds will appear in your Invite tab in the event editor, where you can then mass-invite players from those guilds.

Since Blizzard doesn't have any support for mass-inviting players from other guilds, GC5 will invite them one at a time at the maximum speed Blizzard allows. This can take a while for large partnerships and I recommend that you use copy-and-paste to create additional events once you have an event set up the way you want it. Note that you can not copy an event while you're creating it, you must create it first and then you can copy it and paste the copy to a new date.

    Does this addon have a feature to tell me who didnt sign for my raid?
    Want to be able to see what guildmember did not sign for the raid.

    I require all my guildmembers to sign for all raids, even if its just as tentative.
    And its hard to find why is missing in the list.

    had two problems with group calendar this week. One: invited another guild to our raid (yes, we're synced as partners), but out of the 40 or so I invited, it showed only 7 invited. I went back in and individually invited them....same thing. they aren't showing.
    Second problem: several people who signed up have received letters from me saying that they were removed from the raid. :( I didn't remove them..so..what happened?

    Any possibility of getting Group Calendar 5 to exchange data with sites like PugPlug.com? I know that the outbound from WoW to PugPlug would have to be a text export of some type.

    Prior to the in game calendar, we used Group Calendar. The in game is now lacking for what we need and we again are looking at Group Calendar 5. One thing that would make this tool awsome:

    Using a data channel to cross link "Role" setting on a toon. This would allow people to indicate what role they want to play.

    Awesome addon, I find it great for organizing boost runs in the guild, RP events, you name it.

    I would like an option to set Monday to the default day, though. Missed too many raids because I'm used to the first day of the week being Monday, so the third (for example) has to be Wednesday... but GC5 shows Tuesday there. I always log in spot on time one day late, and everyone in the raid group whispers me yelling (quite a feature, that - yelling quietly!) about how I skipped the raid even though I had accepted the event.

    And I know, I should rightclick, rightclick, leftclick the icon to open and close the default calendar first... but my memory's good but short. :P

    So pretty please with a cherry on top... make GC5 have an option to set Monday as the start of the week, or have it remember it from opening Blizz's calendar in previous sessions.

    You need to enable that in the guild options for their rank.

    Feature requests:
    1) I'd like an option that would automatically lock a raid 12 or 24 hours before it starts.
    2) The option to automatically set the raid to 10 or 25 man depending upon which is scheduled.
    Not sure these are doable but I thought I'd ask at least :)

    Forgot something simple perhaps...

    Is there a setting to get Monday as the first day of the week? /cal mon used to work in previous version. Now we have Sunday as first day of the week unless you open the blizz calendar first.

    Cheers

    Hi Mundocani,

    our guild have been using Group Calendar for years now and we love it!
    The additional features now with GC5 working with the ingame calendar did remove some of the previous features and I hope you're working on a way to add more functionality again.

    Some suggestions we would like to see aswell:
    - Again Notes
    - Offspecs
    - Linking available toons & offspec with one signup
    - Having the event instead to the right of the calendar be able to move it having the possibility to open multiple events

    And maybe a bug... when you're moderator to an event and click "No. * won't attend this event" the event get's cancelled. Even if there are more moderators active. The work around is manually putting yourself on 'out' on the attendance list.

    Thanks again for the foremost useful addon to our guild!

    You guild leader has to enable that for your guild rank. It's a standard WoW setting, part of his other guild controls.

    Some more suggestions:

    - alow leader/assistants and also members themselves to add little notes to each registration
    - assignment of second spec (like fordaz posted before)
    - send mails/whispers to all invited/accepted/rejected players
    - a more detailed description of the event, like some news, ...
    - popup information with player info, talents, guild, gearscore, armory-link

  • fordaz said

    Dunno how easy it would be to impliment, but is it possible for in a future release to have the option of each player having 2 roles (main spec and off spec).

    I'm in a guild currently where just about every member raids in both of their specs, depending on the raid setup. It would be nice if GC5 would keep track of both their specs, which would make raid selection easier.

    I’ve noticed a bug that’s lasted through multiple versions and never seen addressed and was wondering if anyone else has found a fix for it.

    I have all of my Action Bars checked but not necessarily filled; some of the spots remain blank. I have the “Always Show Action Bars” box unchecked. When this box is checked then the empty slots on the action bars show shadowed out. I don’t want them to show shadowed out so I leave the box unchecked. When I open my Spellbook, the empty spots grey out and stay that way until I close the Spellbook window.

    This is where Group Calander seems to cause a bug. If I have Group Calander activated then everything is fine until I open Spellbook and then close it again. The grayed out slots stay grayed and will not disappear again until I do a reloadui or log out and in of this character.

    I’ve narrowed it down so that Group Calander alone is the culprit. I unload ALL add-ons and the problem doesn’t happen. I add just Chatbar and the problem does happen.

    This happens on all computers I have loaded with WOW

    Any help is appreciated.

    I would like to export the invited/accepted players for one raid instead of my own calendar-events. Is this possible somehow ? The problem inviting 25 man raids is, that you have to hit the invite-button again and again. Maybe you could integrate a feature similar to AutoInvite oder just make it possible to export choosen members as csv.

    Thanks and keep up the goot work.

    btw. sometimes the names of invited players dont show up, but no error message. Starts working again after reload.
