SMF Calendar Block

[Xarcell]

I actually added this to my stylesheet:

Code Select Expand


.calendar
{
font-size: xx-small;
font-family: verdana, sans-serif;
}


and changed all the classes in the snippet from:

Code Select Expand


class="smalltext"


to:

Code Select Expand


class="calendar"


This way, I don't have to increase teh width of the blocks to get the calendar to fit. Without shrinking everything else that uses the smalltext class funtion.

any idea why the calendar goes one hour faster than the board time?
(it takes the server time... but i'm in a different timezone)
and can I (somehow) change the name of the dates to different ones (so as to place the greek names in it)??

thanks in advance

I also like to solve this issue. I think can be fixed by adding a line to pick up DST offset from SMF setting?

Anyone can help?

Is it possible to make today's birthdays and events bold, like they are on the board index?

yup you can change this bit of code for the block...

Code Select Expand


if (ssi_todaysBirthdays('')) {
  echo '<tr><td><hr></td><td colspan="5" class="smalltext" align="center"><b>Upcoming Birthdays</b></td><td><hr></td></tr><td colspan="7" class="smalltext">';
  ssi_todaysBirthdays();
  echo '</td></tr>';
}

if (ssi_todaysCalendar('')) {
  echo '<tr><td><hr></td><td colspan="5" class="smalltext" align="center"><b>Upcoming Events</b></td><td><hr></td></tr><td colspan="7" class="smalltext">';
  ssi_todaysEvents();
  echo '</td></tr>';
}

When I use this calendar block code with the "Upcoming Events" additions from either feline or OnTap! (both from page 7 or this thread) it causes all the upcoming events to display in the "Linked Events" box above every thread I view, as if all of the events were linked to that thread (obviously they aren't). Disabling the Calendar box or removing the "Upcoming Events" addition to it causes the issue to stop.

I'm using v1.1RC2 and TP 0.8.6

Anybody know how to fix this?

[AussieBill]

Sorry OnTap!, I meant usernames and event titles. If a member is having a birthday today their name is bold in the Upcoming Calendar on the board index page. Likewise, an event occurring today is shown as bold. I was just wondering if we could do that in the Calendar block.

I added a global variable to retrieve the time offset in SMF and add to current system date/time. The first day of week is changed to Sunday and day name is shortened to 2 characters.

Very cool, thanks!  I like it and it integrates with the calendar so someone just clicks on a date and a new post opens up to enter an event.   

I may have missed it, but anyway I put the last two codes together.  Now it shows the calendar with the abbreviations with two characters, e.g. 'Mo' for Monday and any upcoming events.  Hope it's right.

Ive just set up my calendar and it works like a charm thankyou very very much.
