SMF Calendar Block

[bloc]

Hm, not sure..but this snippet rely on SSI function, so it must be that one giving this result. What SMF version are you on?

[jpark]

SMF 1.1 RC2.. yes, i believe the ssi function is calling all three (birthdays, holidays, and events)?

[True Knight]

This is a great snippet...I like all the different versions. However, I would like to request one little tweak...and I just don't know how to do it.

In the calendars that list the Birthdays and Events they list as follows (example for July 4th):


-----Birthdays------
Dude12 (40)

------Events-------
Independence Day                   <----Holiday Listed
Upcoming Birthdays:                 <----Birthdays
Dude12 (40)
Upcoming Events:                    <----Events
*Special Day



Is there anyway to make it list as follows?:


-----Today's Birthdays------    <----I know how to edit this!
Dude12 (40)

------Today's Events-------    <----I know how to edit this!
Independence Day                    <----Holiday
Events:*Special Day                   <----I want the Event listed without "Upcoming" listed



I don't want the birthdays listed in the "events" area and I don't want the events to be preceeded with "Upcoming." I only set my calendar to list "1" day of events!


How can I do this??

Thanks!

[Xarcell]

This has been mentioned several times. It's something that has popped up since RC1 I believe

[True Knight]

I finally came up with a solution! 

I finally found out how to divide up the events from birthdays and holidays so that it displays like this...

_______________
Holiday
Independence Day
_______________
Special Events Today
Fireworks Display
_______________
Birthdays Today

Thanks I am using it now -

[iwyen]

Thanks True Knight and all. Got it working

How do I add a link to allow posting new events for "today"?

[Xarcell]

@ True Knight

Why did you use "' . $modSettings['cal_eventcolor'] . '" for color? I didn't see anywhere in SMF where you can edit that color. It's also not in the style.css.

Also, I hacked it a bit. Made it more flexiable when changing themes and added tablecell high-lighting. It's also identical in FF & IE now. Has proper border around current day. I reduced the letters of the day of week to 2, so that it fits snug into TP default sidebar width(170px).

* If you want to remove tablecell hight-light, just remove red code: onmouseover="this.className=\'windowbg3\'" onmouseout="this.className = \'windowbg\'"

* If you want to change the color of highlight edit red to class in style.css: onmouseover="this.className=\'windowbg3\'" onmouseout="this.className = \'windowbg\'">

* If you want to add more letters to day of week edit red: $day_name_length = 2;

I'll do one that's even prettier later on, but it'll require added some classes to style.css.

Very cool enhancements  :up:
