[SOLVED] CGCalendar upcominglist with no entries

[tophers]

I'm using:
CMSMS - 1.11.3
CGCalendar - 1.10.0.1

When using 'upcominglist', when no entries are upcoming the template seems to not be processed at all. I'm trying to insert a default message if there are no events pending, using:

Code: Select all

{if $events|@count < 1}
    There are no calendar events pending.
{/if}

In other templates ('listtemplate', for instance), this is processed and displays properly. But in the 'upcominglist' template it's never processed at all - it's like a routine is run in the background to do an event check beforehand, and just bypasses the template altogether.

Is this possible with the 'upcominglist'? If so, what do I need to alter?

/me thinks that the template doesn't get called if there are no matching events.

so you could do something like:

Code: Select all

{CGCalendar display=upcominglist assign=foo}
{if $foo == ''}
   <div class="message">No matching events</div>
{else}
   {$foo}
{/if}

Thanks - it now works part of the time. The 'no events pending' portion displays exactly as planned. I now have an issue with displaying actual events - I have a limit set (2), and that seems to break things:

Code: Select all

{CGCalendar display="upcominglist" listtemplate="Upcoming" category="Human Resources" detailpage="calendar-is" limit="2" assign="pending"}
{if $pending == ''}
   {global_content name='calendar_pending'}
{else}
  {$pending}
{/if}

If I remove the limit parameter all is good - but I get a really, really long list and this is being used on a landing page where I just need the two newest events to show. Any thoughts?

Sorry - ignore that last post. It's working fine - I have some other logic in the template (to exclude events that span multiple days before and after today's date) that is conflicting with the call. When I remove that all is good.

Thanks again!
