Calendar months *FIXED*

Post by Muzzy »

Hi All.

I have just put in place the Calendar on CMSMS version 0.13 Canary and all is well, except when I click to view a previous or the next month, nothing shows up and I get a blank page saying not found.

Can anyone explain why this is, is it anything to do with pretty urls or some other config?

* FIX * Edited config.php file to read pretty url's as false.

Cheers.
Mike.

Because if your tag is something like {cms_module module=Calendar display=blah param1=stuff param2=something} and you have pretty url's turned on,  the remainder of the parameters are not passed along on the URL, which causes them to get lost.  and then the calendar behaves in default fashion every time after you click on a link.

To add these parameters to the pretty url, would infact make the url ugly again (just a different kind of ugly), and therefore was a moot point.  This is why support for pretty url's has been completely removed from Calendar 0.7.4 and beyond.

I have a problem with this... I set pretty urls to 'false' in the config file and as a result, all the images on my pages disappeared... so I had to set it back. Can anyone explain what the problem is?

For this particular site (www.lapd.eu.com), I'm running CMS Made Simple 0.13 "Canary" and Calendar 0.7 stable. I was going to upgrade to the latest CMSMS today (as I REALLY like it :) ), but I have lots of modules installed that are all very important to the site, so I wasn't sure if they would still be compatible.

Here's a full list of the modules I have installed. If anyone can advise me that they are all fully upgradable/compatible, I'll give it a go!!!

Album 0.5.1
Bookmarks 2.0.1
Calendar 0.7 stable
FCKeditorX 1.0 RC1
MenuManager 1.2
News 2.0.3
Reservation 0.6.1
ThemeManager 1.0.6

Thanks in advance!

The image problem may be do to not having the base href in the head as in...
...

I upgraded from the same ver. to the latest, problems were mostly if not all related to Rowcount versus Recordcount...

If it thru an error I would FTP to site open the file find the line mentioned in the error and change the Rowcount to Recordcount or rowcount to recordcount, it is upper/lower case sensitive...

Now it works...

Sorry to sound thick, but where is this located? I added it to the template (both www.lapd.eu.com and www.lapd.eu.com/content which is where the site is actually located) but still no pics. I couldn't find anything relating to it in the config file either...

Ta,

I'll give that a go at some obscure time in the morning when there's less likely to be anyone looking at the site!

I must say, I love the way the editor switches to source code in the latest version of CMSMS, rather than opening up in a popup. A small detail, but ever so simple and less time consuming waiting for the editor to load. I also like the modules manager... very nifty!

The metadata info can be found in Handbook here...
http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... _Templates

This goes in the metadata box and it will show up in every template with the {metadata} tag in the head...

That worked a treat. Must have done it wrong the first time...

Thank you. You are a star!

PS: Does anyone use the 'karma' thing on this forum? I know I do, however people's ratings seem to be rather low considering how helpful they are...

Your Welcome...

The karma thing just started this weekend when the forum changed, I'm not sure it's known what it's for...

I think it's a bit like the 'thanks' module on VB. You click 'applaud' to thank someone if they've given good info or said something important, or 'smite' if they've been bad. :D
