Is there any way to display an events list from the calendar in the news?
Not without writing the functionality to do so; the news is designed for a few short items of news.
I don't know if any of the portals have this functionality ready to go though.

Alternatively, it would be great to ba able to show Calendar output outside the SMF information center, e.g. below the news. The calendar is a great part of SMF, and it is also very useful for many forum communities, but is currentely somewhat hidden away.
Also, beeing able to show all related events for a category and not only per thread would be very useful.
With that said, many thanks to the development team. 2.1 is a great improvement of SMF.
That would be possible with portal blocks, although it may need a custom block code or two. That's not an insurmountable problem. People whip up custom block codes fairly regularly, for various purposes.
That pre-supposes you have a portal installed first though...
No, it presupposes you are prepared to install one if you want to make custom functionality like that. Either that or you get a custom mod written to do the same thing. Either way it's mod territory.
