Calendar 0.7.3 issues URGEN!

Post by newagekat »

Hello:

I had taged this post to my previous post http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 121.0.html, but realized it is best handled seperately.

I'm using CMSMS v1.0.2 on linux server running PHP v4.3.11, MySQL v4.0.25-standard, and Apache v1.3.33 (Unix).

We're working on a job posting site http://www.globalsolutionscanada.com/index.php

I have finally downloaded and installed Calendar 0.7.3 (NOTE: is usefull to change the downloadable packet to the size of the files - for those like me that did not clue in  ;))

Two problems:
  • How do I get the More... link in upcoming list on the left to open on the content side of the page?  Currently not working.
  • Why is the Calendar prev/next navigation not working? and where can I fix this.
Anyone???? 

thank you

Karima

I'm thinking it has some thing to do with the base href missing in the header and your links are pointing to a strange date, 66?

Thank for the reply, Mark.  I tried adding the base href, but that did not help.  could this have anything to do with possible changes in the calendar templates?  if so, can I email you what I have? 

I don't wish to infringe on your time, but this project is near critical.  I need an answer.  If for any reason you cannot help, can you point me in a direction?

I can be reached on AIM.

thanks again.

uhm.... in the Calendar's module help

inline  : Set to 0 to set all of the event links to inlined mode (they will replace the page content). Default is 1. (optional)

so {cms_module module=Calendar inline=0 ...} should do the trick for you

Hello Callguy:

in the calendar template, I had changed the following:

Code: Select all

{strip}
<table class="calendar" id="{$table_id}">
{if $compact_view neq 1}
<caption class="calendar-month"><span class="calendar-prev"><a href="{$navigation.prev}">«</a></span> {$month_names[$month]} {$year} <span class="calendar-next"><a href="{$navigation.next}">»</a></span></caption>
{/if}
to

Code: Select all

{strip}
<table class="calendar" id="{$table_id}">
{if $compact_view neq 0}
<caption class="calendar-month"><span class="calendar-prev"><a href="{$navigation.prev}">«</a></span> {$month_names[$month]} {$year} <span class="calendar-next"><a href="{$navigation.next}">»</a></span></caption>
{else}
<h2 class="calendar-month" align="center"><span class="calendar-prev"><a href="{$navigation.prev}">«</a>{$month_names[$month]} {$year} <span class="calendar-next"><a href="{$navigation.next}">»</a></span></h2>
{/if}
because it was not allowing me to style the calendar month the way I wanted.

The problem I'm haveing are twofold:
  • the Navs on either side of the MONTH point to the right month, but don't actually change the calendar and displays the correct month
  • the MORE link in the upcoming events in the left column does not load in the event detail in the content section.
the second is not crucial, but a non-navigational calendar, now that's weird.  Also, anyone can explain the strange 66 at the end of the date in the link?  ???

I seriously need help.

Check out this url:  http://svr.techcom.dyndns.org/cms_test/svn/index.php

Do it quickly, this is my test site, and I fool around often :)

the calendar has not been styled, but it's displayed in a non default content block.  Clicking on a calendar entry changes the content in the top (the default content block).

All I used was:

Code: Select all

{cms_module module=Calendar display=calendar inline=0}

hey callguy

that's pretty much my content block too, except that I included the table id.

your's seems to be showing in compact form.

canadian site?  where abouts?  I'm in vancouver.

I want to use the big calendar at this time.  If you have some time, wouldn't mind some help debugging, please????

I can't believe i said that.  sorry, tired.

If you change the line back to this {if $compact_view neq 1} and copy the default CSS in the help and rename all the #big to #c-col then you will have it styled default and you can change it from there.

The side bar has a calendar table id=big that is why I suggest remaking a new CSS leaving the current one in place.

It appears you have duplicate CSS attached to this template...

Mark:

thanks.  I tried what you suggested and nadda, zip, ...
  • I removed all calendar codes from the template for events.
  • I detached the style sheet from the template
  • I uninstalled and removed the calendar.
  • I cleared cache in global settings and in my browser
  • i did a clean install and set permissions
  • in the appropriate TEMPLATE, I placed {content} in the so that I can add text here as well.
  • in the EVENT page, I added text and {cms_module name="calendar" table_id="big"}
  • I copied and pasted the default css in a new stylesheet and attached the stylesheet to the event template
I now get a blank page.

So I thought maybe the cms_module cannot be called this way.  I edited the TEMPLATE by adding {cms_module name="calendar" table_id="big"} below {content} and removed the cms_module tag from the EVENT page.

Take a look, still nothing http://globalsolutionscanada.com/events/

I have always been pretty resourcefull, but I must admit, I don't get it.  Can someone from the dev team take a crack.  I'm willing to give you access.  i can be reached using IM or by email.  I would be willing to pay a seasoned coder to find and fix the problem.

Please, this is very urgent.
Thank you.
