Version 1.1.1 (minor bug fix for an uncommon issue)

-------------------------------------------------------
Recently, someone asked Lee and me for help with creating a new event board as a drop-in replacement for an old one they were using, but which was no longer fully functional.
We put our heads together and came up with the Better Event Board (BEB). This marks v1.1 of our effort to make an event board that we think is as good as, or better than, anything else on the marketplace, particularly in this price range.
Our goal in creating BEB was making something which was:
➡️ Google Calendar-compatible
➡️ Highly functional and easy to set up/manage
➡️ Readily configurable with any number of options for look-and-feel.
BEB v1.1 has all of this, and comes at a great price that you can't beat!!
Some of the features of BEB include:
➡️ Google Calendar -- set up a public GCal, provide BEB with the username or access URI, and you're ready to go!
➡️ Amazing Configurability
✅ You want different fonts or colors? Via any number of methods, you're set!
✅ You want the the board a different color, texture, or even transparent so it can go against your own backdrop? You're set!
✅ DJ/Event AV icons? You're set!
✅ Standard or compact views? You're set!
➡️ Easy setup -- we strove to ensure BEB is not only well-configurable, but also well-documented to make it easy to do so! Between the main documentation, and the documentation within the config file itself, you should have no problems getting off the ground quickly and easily. Rez the board, open the config file in the contents, and jump right in!
➡️Option to let you set up your own Google Calendar API to increase the refresh rate (otherwise locked at 5 minutes)
Click the preview images in this listing to see some of the endless ways the board can be set up!
REQUIREMENTS:
➡️ A Google Calendar for your club, group, etc., which is publicly accessible/publicly-readable. For more information: https://support.google.com/calendar/answer/37083?hl=en
➡️ 26 LI available to rez for this version. This is more or less standard for any such dynamically-updated event board -- if not better than many!
PLEASE READ ALL DOCUMENTATION CAREFULLY -- this includes to config file itself. We've taken a LOT of effort to ensure the board is easy to use, but it's important to read and understand what is needed, as well as what should/shouldn't be changed.
**PLEASE NOTE: This board itself is modifiable; the scripts are NOT, ergo why the listing says mod but the inventory/rezzed item itself does not.**
FUTURE ROADMAP (not guaranteed):
➡️ Support for additional character sets
➡️ A variety of different board sizes
➡️ More fonts!
We hope you like this board. As noted in the documentation, we've had a lot of fun creating this board, and have thought long and hard about what features it should have and how it compares to others on the marketplace. We really hope you enjoy it!
If you have any questions or need help/support, please don't hesitate to reach out to us
