[DEV] Topic Calendar Block (livewiremods.com)

Post by Kevin »

As a topic calendar mod is already in beta stage, we've made a block for the portal for it.
The minicalendar is made with ajax, so the portal won't be reloaded if you swap through the months.

You need to have the Topic Calendar Mod from livewiremods.com installed, if you want to use this block.
Direct link to the actual versions and testing forums:
http://www.livewiremods.com/mods/viewforum.php?f=1

Please note: you have to be registered to be able to download and test the calendar. And: it is one of the first betas at this stage. But the guys are doing a great job! :)

  • dianaraes fix added
  • install instructions added
  • installer added
  • ACP management added
    For this first version with just an option to enable or disable the block. Enough space left for future options. (:P)
Let me know how it works. :)

Cheers,

Kevin
Please let me know if you receive any problems with the installer, the ACP management or the install instructions, as i did those things.

Are those rounded corners intended or not?
If you want to remove them, just try this:

Open root/styles/prosivler/template/portal/block/calendar.html
Find:

Code: Select all

<div class="panel bg2" id="bday-panel">
					<div class="inner"><span class="corners-top"><span></span></span>
Replace with:

Code: Select all

<div class="panel bg2" id="bday-panel">
					<div class="inner"><span class="corners-top3"><span></span></span>
Find:

Code: Select all

						            {L_NO_UPCOMING_BIRTHDAYS}
						        <!-- ENDIF -->
						    </div>
						<!-- ENDIF -->
					<!-- ENDIF -->
					<span class="corners-bottom"><span></span></span>
					</div>
Replace with:

Code: Select all

						            {L_NO_UPCOMING_BIRTHDAYS}
						        <!-- ENDIF -->
						    </div>
						<!-- ENDIF -->
					<!-- ENDIF -->
					<span class="corners-bottom3"><span></span></span>
					</div>
Regards, Marc.

No, it's a topic calendar, i've been waiting for all the time. In my opinion the best solution for a board calendar.
You'll find it following the link mentioned in my first post:

  • add: $user->format_date function call for event dates (solving language and time formatting problems)
  • add: get_username_string function call for usernames (birthday), group colors will now be displayed properly
  • style: tiny rework and removed over 40 XHTML validation errors (still 5 left)
Just replace the calendar.php and calendar.html with those of the updated package.

Anyone an idea how to fix the last five validation errors?

hey

I got a little problem with this mod:

Code: Select all

[phpBB Debug] PHP Notice: in file /portal/block/calendar.php on line 48: include_once(./includes/functions_calendar.php) [function.include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory
[phpBB Debug] PHP Notice: in file /portal/block/calendar.php on line 48: include_once() [function.include]: Failed opening './includes/functions_calendar.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:.:.:.:/usr/share/php5:/usr/share/php5/PEAR')
I could not find the requested file "functions_calender.php" in the file package.

thanks for answers

You need to install the topic calendar mod itself first, in order to run this block:

Okay, once again, we have two parts:
  • The Topic Calendar Mod itself, which is the main mod and adds a complete calendar to your board (completely independent from the portal). You can assign topics as events to this calendar.
    You need to download this mod from livewiremods.com (calendar mod 1.0.0b3 phpBB3.zip) and install it to your forum. After that you have to install the 1.0.0b3+ [phpBB3 & SGP040] Fix Compilation.
  • The topic calendar block for Board3 Portal (we are talking about in this topic). It only works if you have the main mod (calendar) installed.
Please note: i don't recommend to install this for admins with basic knowledge. The topic calendar mod is still in a early beta stage, the block for the Board3 Portal is in early Dev stage.
And it's a bit tricky to install the topic calendar mod, including the fix compilation at this time. A lot of editing needs to be done and you have to get a lot of information together.
So i would recommend to wait until both - the main mod and the portal block - are more completed.

Got it? ;)

Will this block be updated to work with 1.0.3?

I desperatly need a calendar block for my portal, but after the update I don't know of any workable solutions.
