Thank you very much, I'll play with it a little.

EDIT
I did some tests here, I don't know if it's in your plans, but here are some ideas:
  • have the option to add events via ACP, for special dates (i.e. add real world dates, such as Christmas, New Year's, etc.),
  • add birthdays to the calendar, with the option to turn off this option via ACP
  • add event notification options for users (with the option to turn off this option via ACP), which can be activated/deactivated in the ucp notifications
  • the language is not working for translation
otherwise the extension is very good, simple and very complete, excellent work!

Thanks for testing :D

Good Idea.
[*]add birthdays to the calendar, with the option to turn off this option via ACP
Done
[*]add event notification options for users (with the option to turn off this option via ACP), which can be activated/deactivated in the ucp notifications
Notifications and emails are already built in tested and working. I will add an option ACP to disable.

Yes I forgot to control them, they currently use the date() function to get the month, days etc. will be fixed next version.

Thanks.

For a future version, would it be possible to synchronize a Google calendar with the extension?

I have a question: I am running currently this one: https://www.phpbb.de/community/viewtopic.php?t=233145

Events only shown by those small icons in the current day? At my calendar we currently use, we can color each event and show as a colored line from the start to the end of the event. This is more visible as icons, people can possibly overlook small icons.

Is there an option for only to display a weekly overview on the index page and the full month on an own link?

Are those events' registration directly added to the topics / posts users can jump in?

Can national holiday be placed into it ?

Yes, events can be annual, bdays and world days.
