Software error:
syntax error at /home/sites/site141/web/ubb-cgi/calendar/p[Sat Jun 9 12:32:13 2001] ultimatebb.cgi: syntax error at /home/sites/site141/web/ubb-cgi/calendar/public_calendar_events.cgi line 2, near "Public chat" ublic_calendar_events.cgi line 2, near "Public chat"
For help, please send mail to the webmaster (admin), giving this error message and the time and date of the error.

if i look at the files in the /calendar dir they looks like this:
%events = (
Public chat => "2452072",
);
1;

and:

%event_desc = (
Public chat => "This is only a testpost",
);
1;

Very cool.

A good idea would be making spaning events. Admins and mods could span a message over a series of days. It would save the admins the trouble of adding the one event on 4 different days.

I was wondering, can users view past events and dates on the calender? Because if so then you could add many features like 1, 2, 3 year anniverseries, 1000, 10000 post anniverseries, mark when new admins/mods joined the forum team, stuff like that.

Tested on 6.04e and no problems

Much needed facility Jordo, and yes was very easy to install, however as with previous posts I had 'similar' issues.

Upon further tests, there are a couple of annomolies:

• Add event defaults to the NEXT day, have to reselect the date to be entered for today.
• First event added worked fine, second event wipes out previous event entry
• Enter a space or special character in the title and it comes up with the syntax error as previously described.

Otherwise a GREAT addition and a much sought after one by us, keep it comeing

Using ver 604d

Hi,

yes, this is really great - go on developing, I think this hack will be one of the best UBB hacks when finished.

Dennis

Salmon - error fixed, reupload ubb_lib_calendar.cgi and the 2 files in the calendar dir.

Balbanes - yes your can view any past events, those are some very good ideas and i will most definetly try to incorporate them by the next version or so!

boondock - i hope you meant "no" problems

air_borg - fixed the day dropdown box, not sure about the adding a second event problems, i havent been able to replicate that hopefully it was related to the space/special chars bug which is now fixed.

you may now include any space or special character except for exclamation points (it will give you a FYI message if you try to put one in). zip updated like i said above, just upload ubb_lib_calendar.cgi to upgrade.

MasterMind - thats just a require call that failed so either the file is corrupt/not there, or the 1; is missing at the end. open up public_calendar_events.cgi and it should look like this:



im almost done with making the main display of it templated, and wordletizing it, so there'll be a new version later today.

jordo --
Uploaded the file, loaded the calendar. After a failed attempt at adding an event, no more 1;

any demos or screenshots, i'm at work and i suck that's why i need a screenshot / demo.


Ok, so i stole that line from " bad boys " .. but hey.. it sounded cool.

original quote " i'm a comedian and i suck , that's why i need ya car "

demo?

i didnt post a demo cause its continually changing (and im testing it on a non-connected webserver), but here are a few screenshots from the version that will be coming out later today.

Top of the Calendar Page:
http://www.jordodesigns.com/calendartop.gif

Bottom of the Calendar Page:
http://www.jordodesigns.com/calendarbot.gif

Add a new event page:
http://www.jordodesigns.com/calendarevent.gif

zip updated to 0.9d
Changes:
various bugfixes and new error checking when posting an event.

completely templateized and wordletized.

To upgrade:

upload the following files, overwriting the old ones (if they exist):
ubb_lib_calendar.cgi
vars_wordlets_calendar.cgi
public_new_calendar_event.pl
public_calendar_display.pl

upload public_event_posters.cgi to your "calendar" directory.

add the new line in ultimatebb.cgi (the require line, not the first addition)

do the modifications for all files in instructions after ubb_lib.cgi (thats cp.cgi, cp_wordlets.cgi, and cp_common.pl

upgrade complete.

Guys,

I just installed the Calender Mod and when I go to ad an event I get the following error. Please help cause I dont know what to do.

syntax error at /www/nitrosim/cgi-bin/calendar/public_calendar_events.cgi line 2, near "FC Challenge"

Here a link to my ubb http://www.nitrosim.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi

can you cut and past the contents of public_calendar_events.cgi here? that would help.
you used the latest version (0.9d) i assume?

Jordo,

I have gotten it to work. Its seems to only work when the Subject is 1 word. It Will not take say a subject as "TVM FC Challenge"

Also is there ar way to restrict access to on admins?

Jordo,

I downloaded it this morning. I didnt notice that you have updated it already... Lemme see if that fixes the problem with the subject.
