CMS Made Simple Forums

I've finally been motivated enough to get to a 0.1 release of a Calendar module done!

You can see it in action at: http://www.akrabat.com/testbed/index.php?page=Calendar

Feedback welcome

for a .1 release(seems more like a .8 ) - works very well, no bugs encountered. Easy to format with css.

When we edit an event in the admin form, it check all the categories, even if the event was entered in only 1 category.

EDIT: a second comment: when it is displayed as "list", the return link shouldn't be displayed, as we are already on the page.

Both fixed in svn.

Thanks!

Making a module customisable and flexible enough is one of the bits I find hardest.

This looks like a great module. Just what I needed. I look forward to using this.

If I could wish for yet more features, it would be the following:

• Tooltip for the small calendar that list time and name for all events of that day.[/list:u]
  • A list of all upcoming events (date/time name and summary) with links to details for each of them.[/list:u]
    
    Any chance of getting this in?

After installation of the module I insert this code on a page:

{cms_module module="Calendar" summaries=true table_id="big" first_day_of_week=0}

But nothing happens. No calendar to see and no errors?

Is the module installed and active in the "plugins" page of the admin?

Yes it is. And the rights in groups are also set.

Are you using rc4 ? also, are you using the wysiwyg editor?

I've been seeing a similar problem when testing the next version of my FeedbackForm module. It turns out that the WYSIWYG is nerfing the tag by replacing the quotation marks with a the HTML entity "

If I go in and change the HTML (using the TinyMCE HTML button) to regular quotation marks, it works again.

ah! The SYSIWYG quote problem again! (*phew*)

Does using single quotes work better?

Looking through your testbed Acrabat, I see that date 21 is highlighted for all months. Is this an indication of the current date? In that case there is a small bug

(The same happens for small and big calendar).

Oops Fixed!

Thanks

Not sure about this one because Gecko browsers have a character limit on tooltips and display multi-line tooltips horrendously!

This one is done. New display option: "upcominglist". I've updated the testbed to show lists. Also, I've significantly styled "upcominglist" to show what's possible.

Single quotes does the trick

Thanx.
