It appears that the 'Option' tab is missing from all modules that has to deal with 'Latest' videos, members, groups. This is extremely important. Please someone assist.

Hi Levester,

Right now we dont have options like that in event, but we will improve our modules in version 4.1.. I hope we can make it in next mayor version.

It looks like this option definitely existed at some point. I attached the screenshot from your documentation of exactly what I need. Jomsocial Documentation Article (Latest Events) can be seen at: http://documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/Latest_Events . In the screenshot is shows 2 tabs ('Details', 'Options'). I do not have either of those tabs in my Community - Events module. Is there away to make those tabs appear?

If it's not possible to bring those menu tabs back, then i'm interested in how I can change latest events module to only display featured events via code hack.

Updated to Jomsocial 4.0.2. Still a problem. Please let me know if there are any solutions to this.

Wow Dimas, that sounds like that can take a long time before 4.1 arrives. Do you guys have an expectancy date for 4.1?

Is there a temporary solution I can use to make the latest events module show nothing but Featured items?

I really want to promote my site very soon, but I want to create and charge for V.I.P. memberships to clients who want to be placed in the Featured module in which I will have the module strategically placed in desired locations.

We dont have any date info for 4.1 release yet.

I am sorry, I dont see any code to show featured on module, but I suggest you create a specific event category for featured event, so you can filter by that category.. if filter by category that is possible by hacking this file modules/mod_community_events/mod_community_events.php find this code, add this code on line 40 :

$categoryIds = 'YOUR_CATEGORY_ID_FOR_FEATURED';

thank you

Although i'm fine with the hack, I just realized that if user's create an event then they have the option to just select Featured Event category and it defeats the purposed of making it a privilege. I tried to get around this by making the category with a blank titled but it looks inconsistent and leaves the potential for someone to figure it out. Also it leaves the event without category.

hi Levester,

Instead you create blank categroy, I prefer you fill it or change another name like "-nocategory-" as simple as that :D

thank you

Because any user that is going to create an event may not find the category specific to their needs, so they potentially will select "-nocategory-" or whatever. Seeing as how I would be using that category to list featured items, this is not what I want users to have access to.
