[Done] Calendar Mod [Ver 1.4]

[The Engineer]

Do you mean just as long as they have a login name you want them to be able to post? I could probably add a switch for that in the settings to allow anybody with a valid login to post regardless of the group assignments.

Yes, that way every member can post but guests can only read events

I put up version 1.2.

There are some instructions in the Readme.txt on what you need to do to upgrade to 1.2.

The only change is the ability to allow all registered members to post an event. There is a new checkbox in the Mod Settings screen to control this.

I fixed a bug with the member groups allowed to post too. If you left this blank it would allow everybody to post including guests.

Are you still up to Moon Phase thingy?

Are you still up to Moon Phase thingy?

Oh no sorry, I kinda of abandoned that without a reliable way to calculate the moon phases.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that to you.

I got tired of trying to find an reliable way to do it. All the formulae I found never quite worked the same for me as it appeared to for others.

Hi,

I installed the mod and all appears to be working, however the holidays show up 3 times.  I have double checked the _holidays table and they are only listed once.  I then deleted one (cinco de mayo) to see if it removed it from the calendar, it didn't.  Does the calendar post these holidays into another table?  Any clues.

Thanks,
Kap

No, the holidays only exist in that one table. How many rows are in your calendar_holiday table? If you inserted just the data I supplied should be 94.

I can't imagine how you would get duplicate holidays for the fixed holidays like Cinco de Mayo unless it were in the table more than once.

For the floating holidays if they have the same year in the table they will show up more than once. Another user had a problem with the year showing up as a tinyint in one of the tables. Maybe double check to be sure the year is not a tinyint in the _holiday table -- should be a smallint.

If you deleted it and it is still showing up, again I'd have to suspect they are in the table more than one time. The calendar gets the holidays out of that table and only out of that table. There is no holiday code in the calendar other than the reading of rows from that table. Are you sure you refreshed the browser after deleting the row? Maybe it was cached? Do a Ctrl+R on the page to be sure.

I guess to be sure you could always just delete all the rows from the table: delete * from calendar_holiday and then select * from calendar_holiday just to be sure it's empty. Then try viewing the calendar to make sure there are not any holidays showing up. Then go and redo the inserts from the Readme.txt to put all the data back.

Or even start simpler. Just do one insert, like the Cinco de Mayo holiday, and then verify on the calendar that you only have it one time.

If you are looking for more features to add to this, how about the ability to span multiable dates with one event.

Check your error logs to see if it is putting out any messages. If your changes are not sticking in the Mod Settings you probably didn't insert the variables for it... or are missing some of the changes to ModSettings.php.

How do you mean you can't post? Be as specific as possible. Do you get an error somewhere? Do the "Post Event" buttons not show up? Or does it all work including the posting of the message but the events just don't appear for you? Check the <prefix>calendar table and see if the entries are making it into the table. Check the definition of the table to make sure it matches what is in the Readme.txt file.

Did you follow all the instructions in the Readme.txt file? There are a bunch of database things to do there. If any are missing, except for the holiday inserts, the calendar will not work properly.

That's an interesting idea. Lemme ponder that one for a bit. I would expect you mean consecutive days in the date range? So maybe when you enter an event an option to pick the number of days to span the event would cover it?

Yes, that what I was thinking

Yes if you are using "yabbse_" for a prefix all of the table names should have that in front. The easiest solution to that is to do a Search and Replace on the Readme.txt file. Replace all of the "<prefix>" with "yabbse_" and all of the database statements should just work.

Did you check your errors logs? That is really the best place to start before trying to install it again.
