Calendar Support for Recurring Events

[giggler]

There is also this PHP calendar and it uses smarty, so it might be easy to use. I tried briefly putting this in cmsms and I think it works:

though it is commercial product, but it does have recurring events. I actually use this for a couple of sites and I like it.

thank you FantomCircuit for your hard work.

hopefully this will be submitted/included in a release of the calender module in the future.

Guess what....

I have updated the files on the server again  There was a bug in the installation method where the custom fields table would not get created sometimes. Not sure if this was something I introduced or if it always existed in the Calendar module.

On line 61 of method.install.php there is the following code block:

Code: Select all

$fields = "
			field_name C(255) KEY,
			event_id I KEY,
			field_value X,
		";

That last comma at the end of the line "field_value X," should not be there. For some reason it seemed to work fine on another server, but on this one it would silently not create the table. I just removed the comma and it all works as expected.

Few other little tweaks as well.

Let me know how it goes. There are no known issues with this latest version.

Phantom, should we get this into the main Calendar-repository and release a new version?

Anyone with time, interest and skills to add recurring events where one can choose what days of the week the event recurs? Like Google Calendar, with a checkbox for each day.

I guess it would need another table with a field for each day, set to true or false. Daily events would have all these checked, weekly would have one of them checked.

What do you think?

Did this ever get folded in to CVS?  I'm worried that since there was just a new version of the calendar released, that this will go unincorporated.  What can we do to get this into the base module?  I'm actually hiring out someone to build a better monthly recurring function (instead of a default 28 days).  I want to get that in as well once done....

Anyone?

Have you make a look in SVN for changes?
