Almost.. well, it fixed the layout

Crazy day, with a rush to try to fix things. It is stuff like that this that makes coding so much fun!

Corrected the exit routine and posted the fix into the original post at the top of the thread. Also made the change to the similar block snippet for posting to a board.

Thanks for finding the issue; should be good to go now. :coolsmiley:

Good thing you caught that.... I almost $foo-- on you.

Nice snippet though! :up:

Is there a way to make the displayed events clickable/linkable to the calendar or post? Is there a way to make it show birthdays and holidays? Thanks.

[Ianedres]

Will look into the clickable events, as that would follow typical use anyway.

As for birthdays and holidays, can look into that but I thought there was some existing snippets for such things.

[jirsh]

Thanks, I mean for the Holidays and Birhtdays to show in your block

Also, is there an easy way to change the font sizes?

[Ianedres]

Changing the font sizes is set with the $css_event variable; match it to something in your theme's style.css file for your site.

Rushed my answer today; the events were already clickable if they have a posted topic.

Also, will be updating the original code in the first post of this topic to accommodate the request for birthdays and holidays to be included with any scheduled events. You can select what to display in any combination of the three choices.
