Well, you can always nudge yours up a couple of days, just to see it displayed.

Yep I just did that as i thought it was soft waiting around and it works like a dream thanx a lot.

This is absolutely wonderful work guys!  It's so attractive! 

I'm curious, is there anyway to set things up so that instead of sending a user to post an event when clicking on a date, that they would be linked directly to the forum calendar so they could see what's happening in the days around that date?

Edit: or even so that only when guests click on a date, they are sent to the calendar, since they can't post events?

Could you add a white background to this?

Well, the month name at the top takes you to the full month's calendar.

Could you add a white background to this?

It uses the standard background for TP blocks (style comes from it).

But you can get it 'mostly' white by changing:

Code Select Expand

$calendar = '<table>'.'<caption >'.$p.($month_href ? '<a href="'.htmlspecialchars($month_href).'">'.$title.'</a>' : $title).$n.'</caption><tr>';

To:

Code Select Expand

$calendar = '<table style="background:white;">'.'<caption >'.$p.($month_href ? '<a href="'.htmlspecialchars($month_href).'">'.$title.'</a>' : $title).$n.'</caption><tr>';

Well, not as compact/efficient as it could/should be (loadMemberData takes an array as it's argument), but:

Code Select Expand


/////////////// holds the user info including color
        global $user_profile;

/////////////// Calls the sub which loads the info
        $dummy = array();
        $dummy[] = $member['id'];
        loadMemberData($dummy);
        $profile = &$user_profile[$member['id']];

/////////////// Outputs a colored name and age in parentheses as link to profile
        echo '<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=profile;u=', $member['id'], '">';
        if (!empty($profile['member_group_color']))
        {
        echo '<font color="' . $profile['member_group_color'] . '">' . $member['name'] . (isset($member['age']) ? '(' . $member['age'] . ')' : '') . '</font>';
        }
        else
        {
        echo $member['name'] . (isset($member['age']) ? '(' . $member['age'] . ')' : '');
        }
        echo '</a>';


Note that this depends on loading the $member array via:
    foreach ($context['calendar_birthdays'] as $member)
