CiviEvent and Joomla frontend?

[cama950]

Is there a way to publish events (similar to online contribution)?

I created a menu item to link to the CivicCRM component.  However, Profile Search & Listings, Profile Edit, Profile Create, and Online Contribution are the only 4 CiviCRM tasks available for selection in Edit Menu Item :: Component [ CiviCRM ] page.

Yes, this skipped my mind early on and i've fixed it already This will be part of the next release. I'm hoping to do a release coming thu

We will also expose the contact dashboard and the CiviCRM home page to the frontend

Thank you for the response, and I look forward to getting the next release.

As to CiviEvent, I plan to use CiviCRM to organize an international conference. I'd like future participants to reach a page in CiviCRM where they can register (fill a form) then go and pay via Paypal. Is that possible to configure that process for the frontend, and if so how (step by step procedure)?

Thanks

that is possible with CiviEvent. Please download, install and give it a try. There is some documentation and help on the wiki. If you want someone to do it for you or give you detailed instructions, please consider hiring someone from: http://civicrm.org/professional/

Thanks a lot. I appreciate the professional link. Actually I'm struggling with the install because my ISP has limited memory to 8Mo and php scripts exec time to 30 - no way to move ahead at the moment. I asked for change - I hope he will modify the server config otherwise I'll look for another ISP...

For preinstalled joomla and CiviCRM check open social sites and my forum posting at:

Eventually my ISP made the changes and I could install CiviCRM flawlessly. I'm not a techie "Pro", but if I take time I can understand and go quite a distance by myself. As to final configuration for the frontend, I might ask some professional help.

Great - I've gathered that the next version will be able to publish the pages we can set up in the current version and that the next version is being announced -  So will someone please tell me what version numbers we are talking about! 

I've got a version 1.7.beta.9101 installed on my test server but struggling to get it installed on my hosted site (another post) Events are essential for  me - so what version will or does allow members to book and pay for events on the front end?

Once I get the right version installed and working I think I'm going to love it... here's hoping

9101 should allow events to be exposed in the front end. If you are having troubles installing consider moving your hosting to open social sites or a better host
