Calendar 0.7.9 Start-End Date Problem

Post by BobX »

Using Calendar 0.7.9 on CMS Made Simple 1.2.3.

I'm trying to get the Star And End Dates in my Upcoming List (events) to read "Month, Date, Year" instead of "Date, Month, Year"

For Example:  "Date:  February 14  2008 to February 16 2008" instead of "Date:  14 February 2008 to 16 February 2008"

Is this possible? I've been going nuts trying to tweak this in the templates and in the Smarty Tag
(Format to display the event's date (as used in strftime()). Default is "%d/%b/%Y". )
and nothing is working for me.

Also,  (not as important) when I initially installed the Calendar, The upcoming lists would use a "courier" type font instead of the preferred Sans Serif that I'm using throughout the rest of the site. Any reason for this? I went into the style sheet but I didn't see how my fonts were being over-ridden with a "courier" font. I had to add in my own font-style in the various divs to get it to work.

Thanks in advance!

BobX,

I was having the same Courier font problem you were and found that the entire calendar had been wrapped in an outmoded font tag!  I finally re-read the help file for the Calendar module where the author warns that we need to make sure the call to cms-module is not wrapped in a pre tag. I checked the HTML code for the page and sure enough the WYSIWYG editor wrapped the call in a font tag with face set to Courier New. Just remove the font tag from the HTML code for the page to fix your font problem.
