Default Modification: Upcoming events

Lets just say hypothetically you wanted to add a menu selection of upcoming events, that allowed users to post upcoming concert dates, CD releases, new music events etc, etc, what would be the best approach to take on something like that? I have always thought that something like that would be a nice edition to the existing web site application.

Hi there,

It would be pretty much the same as managing reviews in the backend: use some data-source and databound controls (or use the "hand-coded" approach for more complex pages) to accept user contributions, store them in the database and display them. The biggest difference is that it would be a frontend feature, and thus would use the frontend master page and would be accessible to non-admin users.

Cheers,

Imar
