SMF Calendar Block

[thoraxe]

the way the calendar works right now you would need to create the raids in the calendar and then modify your website to pull the raid forum for the list.

otherwise you'd need to write some kind of hook that would enable your utility to write to the calendar database.

I'm not sure if theres a way to have an event without a thread... it would be like a holiday then.

And thus I will wait for someone with far greater knowledge then me and the same desire to do it LOL =)

I wish it was that easy... I have such an awesome idea for an events module for SOME portal or CMS, but no one seems to be motivated to do it, even though they all have greater knowledge =)  I wish that I had the time to implement it myself.  My PHP skills are OK, but limited, and everything takes me far longer than it would take someone else who knew what they were doing.

Oh well... the curse of open source I suppose.  If only I had money!

i get these 2 different views of the block from ie and firefox. the first picture is the view from ie, and the second is from firefox. the firefox view is fine other then the little square the circles the date runs out of the block on saturdays, but it doesn't even show in ie. the ie view also doesn't size to match my other blocks. any suggestions to get this block to look the same with ie and ff?

always specify all attributes in each tag.. eg:cellpadding,borderwidth,image size, borders, colours.. each browser makes its own assumptions about what the defaults should be.. and of course they are different in some cases..(no i'm not going to say which is right and which isn't ;P )

I believe once you get in a habbit on never assuming anything then your better off in everything..

Ok, noob here...

I tried to place that following code into a php file by itself, to show my calendar & events on my blog site via iframe.

I got this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: ssi_todaysbirthdays() in /home/.abigaildryer/xarcell/xarcell-studios.com/TagWorld/frames/calendar/calendar.php on line 68

Any solutions?

Not sure which code you use, but this one works for me.

Code Select Expand

global $scripturl, $modSettings, $sourcedir;

$now = mktime() + $modSettings['time_offset'] * 3600;
         $today = date('j',$now);
         $year = date("Y",$now);
         $month = date("n",$now);
         $days = array($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>'));

         $day_name_length = 2;

         $first_day = 0;
         $pn = array();

$first_of_month = gmmktime(0,0,0,$month,1,$year);
#remember that mktime will automatically correct if invalid dates are entered
# for instance, mktime(0,0,0,12,32,1997) will be the date for Jan 1, 1998
# this provides a built in "rounding" feature to generate_calendar()

$day_names = array(); #generate all the day names according to the current locale
for($n=0,$t=(3+$first_day)*86400; $n<7; $n++,$t+=86400) #January 4, 1970 was a Sunday

$weekday = ($weekday + 7 - $first_day) % 7; #adjust for $first_day
$title   = htmlentities(ucfirst($month_name)).' '.$year;  #note that some locales don't capitalize month and day names
