Flexinode Module

I will explain how to use flexinode to add an event type

I just did this today successfully in a brand new 4.6.3 site i am building (my 3rd of this version - i have a lot of 4.5.2 sites)

I use the event module a lot and in 4.6.x the event module does not create an event as a content type of its own as it does in 4.5.x - rather it attaches the date and time info to any other content type.

This is done in administer | content | configure | content types or yoursite/admin/node/configure/types

Go here and make sure that the "show in event calendar" is turned off event (Never) for all content types that you dont want to have date and time information attached (i turn it off in all types).

Now to set up flexinode

first copy the flexinode module into your modules folder, add the table to the database and then go to administer modules to enable it

then go to administration | content | content types | add content type to add an event type
For mine I add a text field and a text area and make them required for event location and event details respectively.

Then I go back to administer | content | configure | content types and edit the Event Type and turn on the "show in Calendar" option.

Finally you need to assign this content type to a category administer | categories and either add a new vocab or edit an existing one to allow this content type in it.

Now to test it
Go to create content, choose your event type and voila, it has event date and time, a location and event details fields along with the drop down for the category list

hope this helps
