Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] mdp_calendar
mmm – I have mine at GMT +10.00 and it won’t display articles on the 1st of the month. You have yours set at GMT -3 and it won’t display the last day…
Time and offsets have never been my strong point. I’ll sleep on it and see if my mind can figure it out…

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] mdp_calendar
Well, mine is showing the first day events without troubles (just using firstday=1), not sure if this is exactly a problem with the time offset ‘cause I tryied to change it to different settings and the event on last day of the month is still dissapeared. Maybe a function like firstday=1 but for the lastday … I don’t know, I haven’t the skills to solve this (and if I do it it’s just lucky!).

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] mdp_calendar
I don’t think it has got anything to do with the firstday=1 attribute. I think something is going on with the way it works out the date display from the server time and the GMT offset. Something is happening there which maybe makes some dates illegal or something – so it doesn’t show them. It might actually be the calendar display code. When I get a moment I’ll have a non-programmers look at it… :)

Anyway, I’m looking forward for a solution to this issue and some others.
Thanks for your time!

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] mdp_calendar
Hi,
I’ve been using the other calendar thread to post my problems but since greenrift said:
“Please use this thread for now on when talking about my calendar plugin.”
…I’ll post my problem here too.
Basically when I click on any calendar date, I get all of the events not just the ones specific to that day. I’ve tried several of the “fixes” that are on either forum thread but nothing has worked.
Even though I have the sgb_url_handler installed….I tried switching between url modes to see if that helped. With the sgb_url_handler turned on or off here is what I get:
section/title -> lists all events
messy -> lists all events
year/month/day/title – I get my welcome/default page…and it will only show the welcome article….not the event articles
The results above are the same regardless if sgb_url is on or off and regardless of many suggested changes (like to the publish file and txp-prefs and en-us files).
So if you do have the calendar working if you could answer the following Qs maybe that would help me troubleshoot
- what version of txp are you using?
- what version of mdp_calendar are you using?
- what url mode are you using?
- do you have sgb-url installed? is it on?
- did you make changes to any files to get this to work?
- what code do you use to display the articles?
any help would be really appreciated!
On a side note, I figured out how to get the days of the week to display like this:
S M T W T F S
If you want the code I used, please let me know.
I think thats it.
thanks!

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] mdp_calendar
So most of my calendar is functional now…finally. Now I’m just having trouble displaying both past and present dates. All of the days that have events are highlighted in the calendar, but lists of events are only displayed for past days. If I add time=“future” to the article tag then the future days work but none of the past days work. Is there anyway I can have both past and present events displayed?
thanks!

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] mdp_calendar
to answer my own question time=“any” seem to do the trick. Sorry, I didn’t know what values time could have. Is this listed anywhere? I know “any,” “future,” and “now.” Does “past exist as well?
thanks!

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] mdp_calendar
duchamp – this is the code I have for my page template:
<code>
<txp:article time=“any” form=“event_article” listform=“events_list” sortby=“posted” sortdir=“asc” category=“event” section=“events” />
</code>
In other words time=“any” goes on the tag that actually displays the article, <code><txp:article /></code>
hope that helps!

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] mdp_calendar
- The timezone of the server you are on.
- Your set GMT offset.
Make sure you’re running the latest version of TXP as well (old 4.0) and latest of my plugin. This way I can atleast try to recreate your situations.
