Modification Name: Calendar

Author(s): LK, originally by jordo

Description: This modification will add a calendar to your UBB. UBB's birthday will show up in the calendar and add an avatar near the user's name in his/her birthday. You will also be able to post an announcement and set a calendar date and it will show it in the calendar. It's 100% Templetized and Wordletized and includes a CP interface.

thanks LK

yeah, I didn't install it on ubbdev yet

any new changes?

awwe no link to calendar re-location?

the code is different, so you'll need a 6.6 version anyway

Oops, ZIP file updated, please rehack ubb_forum_summary.cgi and update vars_wordlets_calendar with the 2 "forum_summary_X" values..

<hr /></blockquote>If you mean from 2.0 to 2.1, a bunch

- You can now rebuild the birthdays, which was a big problem back when banned members were still on the calendar
- Smilies can now be in the titles
- Only one template file, where as there was like 3 before
- You can edit one event at a time, instead of having to open up all the events that day
- Events and birthdays are now listed separately, and there is no more "No events schedules for today". If there is no event, it won't be there at all

A demo until he gets the one up at UBBDEV can be seen here

mmmm, sounds super... lemme grab the 6.5 one :x...

LK, is there anything "buggy" about this?

ie. why still in beta?

Weird Al's feature listing is correct.. there are also more features, such as a rebuilt event review

It's still in beta because in my opinion any "complicated" hack should be in beta stage for some time before being considered final... and the 6.5 one isn't considered final because if it were final, there wouldn't have been a calendar v2.1.

btw, nice signature

BTW, thanks for grouping the changes in calendar.txt to put .pl files seperate from .cgi files. Makes editing much less acrobatic.

That and upgrade.cgi seems pretty simple now.

You didn't forget a single one of my suggestions yet!

Installation was easy! It was nice to not have to bounce back and forth between CGI and non-CGI folders.

Is there anyway to make the calendar events span more than one day, or do I have to create an event for each day?

Here is my site, you can register to check it out, or I'll provide you with a log0-in at your request. Thanks!

Hey LK, the weekly events only repeat for that month, and not the following ones. ie if I set tomorrow to start a weekly event, it'll be every wednesday in november, but not in december

that's currently the designed behavior... I believe you can change that in ubb_lib_calendar.cgi, where it searches for /w/ and replaces the month-day with the day on the current week, also make it replace the month with the current month

Wah! Still beta!

it works fine, the beta is just so he can add to it without making it 3.0

yeah, beta is only because the feature list isn't final.
