CGCalendar multi-day events not showing correctly

I have customised CGCalendar defaultView for FullCalendar template and for most parts it's working correctly except multi-day events is omitted, if the events start date is before current date.
So if CGCalendar view is today + next 2 days (duration is set to 3 days) and the multi-day event start date is also today then the event is displayed in the calendar.
- Multi-day event is displayed if start date is today date.
But if the multi-day event start date is before today, the event is NOT displayed in the calendar.
- Multi-day event not displayed if start date is before today date.
The setting in the FullCalendar template:
Code: Select all
defaultView: 'agenda',
duration: { days: 3 },
If i manually insert the event dates in the FullCalendar template then the multi-day event is displayed in the calendar.
So it seems to have something to do with how the dates is fetched via URL but i don't now if it's abug or something that can be solved?

I just tested this with the standard templates and it works fine here.
I suggest you test using the standard templates. If it works fine there... then you need to dig further.

Hmm! I've just installed a fresh copy of CMSMS 2.2.2 and CGCalendar 2.4.7.
Created a new event with start date 'July 24 9.00 AM' and end date 'August 4 2.00 PM'.
Default 'CGCalendar FullCalendar View Sample' template.
The event display just fine.
- Default CGCalendar View.
If i then add 'defaultView' and 'duration' to the FullCalendar View template, it stops working and the event is not displayed in the current view.
Code: Select all
defaultView: 'agenda',
duration: { days: 3 },
- When 'defaultView' and 'duration' is added to the FullCalendar View template.
So the event is not showing if the start date is earlier than current date/view.
If i navigate back to the event start date, the event starts to show again.
- When navigating to the event start date the event is showing.
Is this setup any different from yours?

I changed the defaultDays, but did not play with the duration.
I created an event that went from a Saturday through to a Monday.

Yes it seems to be somehow connected to 'duration' and that the events is fetched as a feed.
If i in the FullCalendar View template replace the event feed
Code: Select all
events: {
url: '{$fetch_url}',
type: 'GET',
data: {
'{$actionid}showchildren': 1,
'{$actionid}detailpage': '{$detailpage}',
'{$actionid}eventtemplate': '{$actionparams.eventtemplate|default:''}',
'{$actionid}editpage': '{$actionparams.editpage|default:''}',
'{$actionid}editeventtemplate': '{$actionparams.editeventtemplate|default:''}',
},
error: function() {
alert('{$mod->Lang('error_fetching_events')|cms_escape}');
}
},
defaultView: 'agenda',
duration: { days: 3 },
with
Code: Select all
events: [
{
id:'1',
title:'Multi-day event',
summary:'',
details:'',
canedit:1,
candelete:1,
color:null,
textColor:null,
start:'2017-07-24 09:00:00',
end:'2017-08-04 14:00:00',
allDay:false,
detail_url:'\/\/localhost:8888\/cmsms222\/index.php?mact=CGCalendar,cntnt01,default,0&cntnt01event_id=1&cntnt01display=event&cntnt01returnid=1'
}
],
defaultView: 'agenda',
duration: { days: 3 },
Then the event display correctly.
So something goes wrong in the combination of 'duration' and using event feed.

I've figured out a "work around" to my issue with fullcalendar, defaultView and duration.
I've used an Upcoming list template where the output is formatted to use in FullCalendar and replaced the feed script in the fullcalendar template.
So now my "CGCalendar::fullCalendar View" template is fetching the events like this:
Code: Select all
events: {cms_module module='CGCalendar' display='upcominglist'},
defaultView: 'agenda',
duration: { days: 3 },
My output from the upcominglist template looks like this:
Code: Select all
[ {title: 'Multi-day event', color:'#ff0000', textColor:'#FFFFFF', allDay:false, start: '2017-07-24 09:00:00', end: '2017-08-04 14:00:00'},{title: 'Some all day event', color:'#ff0000', textColor:'#FFFFFF', allDay:true, start: '2017-07-27 07:00:00'} ]
