What I'd like to see is the ability to post all of an events details in an article.
So a t the moment we have the dt event plugin but all that does is give a button or two that links to an event or register form (or event list)
It would nice to be able to "plug-in" the event name, price, number of attendees, location etc (anything available on the event list distplay) into an article also - and of course in the structured data format of my other request.
Any thoughts on how this might be achievable outside of a new dt register plugin?
I just started looking into this myself.
$register in dtregister.php (components/com_dtregister/helpers) seems to be doing the tying together of the 2 buttons that are printed under the article. The buttons are called in dteventlink.php (plugins/content/dteventlink) and there is a mentions of the register_now button in registrant.php (components/com_dtregister/views/event/tmpl) but I'm not sure what that does.
The file that needs to be embedded (as an option) in the article is show.php (components/com_dtregister/views/location/tmpl) which has the details in location_box and the map in map_canvas.
I would be fine with this popup being loaded underneath the buttons but don't know enough about php to do this. If a developer works on this I would like to be able to select a location (left,right, above, under article text) and (on/off) in the backend general settings.
