CMS Made Simple Forums

HI,
I implemented LISE 1.4.2. as an Event-List, and it works fine when showing all events, which were added.
Now I want to display only the (one) next event coming up. So I need the current date somehow.
I tried {LISEEventListe xf_startmonth=1} in the content area, with different numbers (=months), it works, but how can I get the current month automatically from the system, without changing the content code every month?
There are also similar parameters for day and year. Can I combine them with the month parameter?

Thanks for help!

In Smarty you can use some PHP functions in two different ways, depending on some security policies settings:
or One is using the function directly on the tag, the other is using the PHP function as a Smarty modifier, although with some functions, the order of the parameters is not very intuitive and you should consult the Smarty docs site.

Note: not all PHP functions work though, as I said, depending on security policies settings, and that applies to both cases. There is a configuration setting for CMSMS to have Smarty accept a wider range of functions at the expense of some security but that actually depends on who you give access to the admin console. If you work alone or with a trusted group of people there is not much of an issue

Other LISE parameters can be used in combination (please refer to the module help) and you can use the same PHP function with a different parameter to retrieve the day or the year.
