Support Modules

Event Front-end

• Event Attendance (use instead of regular Event Reader)
  Create a Module for Event Attendance, which will display the event like the TL Event Reader Module, but will check if booking is full or over last registration date. If not, it will display the booking form, and optionally the free places section. The mod_eventsattend.tpl now only contains the appended registration information (the original modules mod_event.tpl and event_xxx.tpl need to be modified to change their output accordingly)

Note:

Use this module INSTEAD of your regular Event Reader module. If the event you are viewing is a default event (no registration) it will display as a normal TL event using the default TL templates as described above (without any additional info).
