Label Calendar Linked Thread Expired After Event Passes

[NooBoards]

I have an announcements forum in which every thread includes an event. I would like for those threads that are linked to events that have already transpired to receive a Red "Expired" label. Ideally the effect would occur on every instance of event linked threads regardless of the forum they appear in.

It seems a simple idea but I don't even know where to start on plugin builder.

It doesnt look like event data is tied to the thread outside of being IN the thread itself. I would suggest asking on support for event data to be added to proboards.data('proboards.thread') so it can be accessed by plugins outside of the thread itself.

Yeah, I'm just getting my head around this stuff. I just figured out yesterday that a plugin is just packaged Header/Footer/JS/CSS code that could otherwise be manually inserted into the admin areas which is simple enough. And I've been studying the proboards.data object but I've not found a means to discover the entirely of it. console.log(proboards.data) just displays a function, is there a map of all of the array headings anywhere?

proboards.dataHash


but its not in there either. you will have to request that get added. Tim is pretty open to ideas though, so you have a good chance.

range_string appears to contain the necessary data. Start and end are the same for regular threads. threads with calendar dates have a different start and end related to the calendar entry. parsing it consistently is another issue...

[Wormopolis]

inside the thread sure, but I was interpreting the request as being able to label the event from the thread listing page?

Right, it was late and I got excited.
