I know, I probably missed it some where like i did on the member list. But there seems to be a prob, with ubb_lib_posting. Seems it can not find the string to replace the old data. I will double check again, but i thought i would bring this to your attention LK. smile

Hey LK, this is my first time trying to install hacks to my UBB. I'm running 6.3.0 now and I got the spell check hack installed on it just fine. But when I try to install the calendar hack I have problems.

I use the Multihack file and I run the Anlayze on it first and the line after it begins Analysis says this
quote:

cp.cgi Append Applying Mod ERROR: Requires vars_wordlets_calendar.cgi in cp.cgi

I don't quite understand what it's wanting since I assumed the vars_wordlets_calendar.cgi file would be installed with this hack.

It's cause you have already installed the spellchecker tipsy

In the MultiHack, find the cp.cgi step that says:
Code
[/code]Replace it with:[code]

Silly question tipsy , but how can I get the Birthdays to show up on the Calendar? Everything appears to work great, apart from a lack of birthdays frown

Cleared the cache to no avail...

AFTER installing the hacks, enter my profile -> Edit My Profile, make sure you chose to SHOW your birthday and click on update. If you did it before installing, it won't show up. If it still doesn't work, rehack ubb_profile

Okay - so until people edit their profile and click on save they will not show up - even if the box is ticked previously.

Thanks.

Ian.

Mod works great but is there anyway to put a small calendar on a main page (non-ubb) like on this site that is also updated like the large one?

humm, I'm getting this error when I try and access the calendar settings from the cp. Any ideas?

One other item, what file do I rehack if I've applied JC's templates?

Thanks again, great hack btw.

Using the MultiHack file it fails to edit cp.cgi correctly.

It's looking for...

[code][/code]...but after installing the Mods Wordlets hack you're instructed to insert "wordlets_mods" before "display misc" so it misses it.

Ok, Rehacking the cp.cgi worked, I looked at the public_* files that are hacked for calendar and compaired them to the files that are on the server after applying the JC template. They are the same.. any ideas?

never mind, found the templates I need to rehack..

All the files that are left to hack are the JC template public_common.pl and the like. All the .cgi files are good to go.

The standard hack for public_common.pl here is the code in its entirity

*************
*************
######################in public_common.pl

######after:

# Forum Home
push(@items, qq($vars_wordlets{forum_home_link}));

######add:

# Calendar
push(@items, qq(>$vars_wordlets_calendar{calendar_link}));

***********
***********

and here is the code from JC's template public_common.pl that the above code would follow:

**********
**********
# Forum Home
push(@items, qq($vars_wordlets{forum_home_link}));

***********
***********

What I'm looking for is how to rewrite the hack code in bold to work with his templates. If anyone could help it would be appriciated

Thanks again.

Instead of the bolden part, use:
$vars_wordlets_calendar{calendar_link}));

Then upload calendar.gif to your noncgi dir with "calendar" wording on it

The way the script is set up now if you have a "weekly" event and input it, it only lists it for that current month. Is there any way to make it so that a weekly event goes throughout the year, so that you don't have to enter it again each month?

This would be mucho helpful smile

I'd love to see this option, too, or even one where I could post one for several days.

Glass, rehack ubb_profile.cgi AND re-upload vars_wordlets_calendar.cgi - I added something for our frenchman (chuck) a while back, and it changed the way that birthday thing works.

Ok, how do you remove entries from the calendar? I posted a test message and had it put an entry into the calendar then I deleted the message but the entry stayed in the calendar.

Is there a way to edit entries in the calendar that I'm missing or is that a feature that could be added?

Nice work btw.

Check out these forums. You see how they got the Calendar to show up as a Forum Category? How'd they do that? Is there a hack that can do it? Or do you suppose they just figured it out on their own?

I'd -love- to have that since most people seem to miss the calendar link completely because of its location andd size. Hell, after I installed it, I missed it completely because of my browser size! (Yeah - I'm a dumbass...). So if one of you could point me in the right direction, that'd be just dandy!
