So I have a client that is looking at having a calendar page but has certain criteria:

* Calendar with options to select different cities
* Searchable within a certain radius based on a Zip Code searches
* Admin interface to approve posts
* Perhaps a way to charge visitors a fee to post on the site
* Some other features like ease of use for visitors would be nice too.

Is there anything out there like this? He is looking for something basically to have all these different states and cities with listings. I have searched Hot Scripts [dot] com and have found some decent php mods but nothing really that nails what he's looking for.

Any ideas? I'm almost sure that I'm going to have to write this myself, but trying to avoid that if something already existssmile

I'm not sure I understand your question. The other functions you mention are unrelated, at least to calendars.

There are a ton of free event and holiday and customizable calendar scripts out there, most database driven. But none of them have to do with zip radius or password-protected access or online transaction processing.

Well its not a dating site, we already have one of those in place. I was looking for something that allowed visitors to do searches based on the zip code or within a certain radius. Has anyone looked at this page:

I guess you're looking for just a timestamp, not a calendar. I still don't understand your application. If you want a customizable BB, there are plenty of them out there too. The one you referenced is just a cold fusion board.

Your database has to match the application and visa versa. So do you already have data or are you fishing for an application to create one for? Nobody has a plug-n-play zip code locator c*m post finder c*m date-stamped searchable website with administrative controls that you can clone and have up and running in five hours if that's what you mean.

I just noticed nobody speaks latin around here too much either like Magna Cum Laude

Well I know that I am not going to have something up in 5 hours and I'm resound to the fact that I'm going to have to do work, and that's fine with mesmile

But my thing is that I just want a calendar (happenings) page that people can post to and visitors looking for events can find easily in their own home city/state. I thought the zip code search would be nice to have. I know that there are places out there that I can get all the zip codes for cities and plug them into the database.

I'm not sure what you mean by 'timetamp'? I'm looking for a calendar that would maybe have a dropdown list something like this:

What's going on in your city? [then they could choose a City and State from a dropdown or search by zipcode]

Then that would take them to their cities page with upcoming events listed. They would also have an option to add events too.

Does that help?
