SMF Calendar Block

[bloc]

Great work, pcw.

[Miraenda]

I just added pcw's changed version of the calendar to my main TP testing board - http://skewed3.com/

Looks pretty good, thanks a lot to both Bloc and pcw

[Moocat]

using pcw's version i get this when i do the php test:

Code Select Expand


$now = mktime(); $today = date(\'j\',$now); $year = date(\"Y\",$now); $month = date(\"n\",$now); $days = array($today=>array(NULL,NULL,\'\'.$today.\'\')); $day_name_length = 3; $month_href = $scripturl . \'?action=calendar\'; $first_day = 1; $pn = array();$first_of_month = gmmktime(0,0,0,$month,1,$year);

also i'm using helios so the day that is today doesn't appear to be highlighted, it just doesn't appear to be a link. it would be nice if the border on the day worked so its easier to see! ty

Search for

Code Select Expand

$days = array($today=>array(NULL,NULL,\'\'.$today.\'\')); in your code and replace it with

Code Select Expand

$days = array($today=>array(NULL,NULL,'<a class="smalltext" style="color: steelblue; font-weight: bold; border: solid 1px black; background-color: white; padding: 0px 4px 0px 4px;" href="'.$scripturl.'?action=calendar;sa=post;month='.$month.';year='.$year.';day='.$today.'" target="_self">'.$today.'</a>'));

This will link your "Today" to the smf-calendar.

^^Feel free to modify the style (css)ÂÃ,

okay i see the code, and how it should show a white block behind the text for the day, but here is how it shows up, and here is my code.

Code Select Expand


$now = mktime();
ÂÃ,  ÂÃ,  ÂÃ,  ÂÃ,  ÂÃ, $today = date('j',$now);
ÂÃ,  ÂÃ,  ÂÃ,  ÂÃ,  ÂÃ, $year = date("Y",$now);

#remember that mktime will automatically correct if invalid dates are entered

the code was copied exactly from your original post, and the correction you just suggested was already in place.

as you can see from the below, the current day, the seventh, is only white and barely distinguishable from the other day which are a light-green or light-blue.

also, with the above code entered, when i click the PHP-test button, to check for errors, it outputs this code:

Code Select Expand

$now = mktime(); $today = date(\'j\',$now); $year = date(\"Y\",$now); $month = date(\"n\",$now); $days = array($today=>array(NULL,NULL,\'\'.$today.\'\')); $day_name_length = 3; $month_href = $scripturl . \'?action=calendar\'; $first_day = 1; $pn = array();$first_of_month = gmmktime(0,0,0,$month,1,$year);

The entire $days thing is exactly like what you had in your code, but it still outputs this for some reason. also, the \'.$today.\' part is a hyperlink to http://www.mysite.com/"/'.$scripturl./'?action=calendar;sa=post;month=\'.$month.\';year=\'.$year.\';day=\'.$today.\'\" within that specific field for php test.

[Moocat]

[Moocat]

i restored the original style.css file that came with helios_multi11_tp and it still shows up like that screenshot.
