Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zem_event [flexible integrated event management]

Rick,

The handling of zem_event categories would have to be different then the default categories, because as zem pointed out it’s a many to many relationship unlike the article -> category relationship.

I was thinking it would just make the most sense to all categories together. Plus the proper handling is already there so it’s just a matter of making the events and steps match up.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zem_event [flexible integrated event management]

Version 0.33 is available
This version should show the changes with the Location field. It is a matter of deleting the zem_event_location form (or renaming it zem_event_location_off as I did) in order for the field to become a text field. This way it is now flexible and can be formatted either way. Good idea Alex :)

Also, Alex, thanks for the explanation above.d

Lastly. Currently development funds are zeroed. At this point, if anyone is interested in new functionality, there are two routes to go:

  1. You can personally approach Team Textpattern about funding development for new features. Upon development of those features, you can choose to share them with the publich version of the plugin as a gift, ransom, or any other model you believe is appropriate.
  2. You can find developers in the forum or elsewhere that might be interested in working on this plugin for fun, funds, or fungus. Again, feel free to share the outcome with the community in any fashion you see fit.

Thanks all.
Matthew

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zem_event [flexible integrated event management]

I know this should be easy to figure out, but I can’t seem to make it happen.
I’m a bit confused on how to make the minical nav work.

EXAMPLE
Say I have some events on April 7th.
The URL generated in the minical is: http://www.mysite.com/?date=2007-04-07

How do I pass that date to zem_event_list so it knows to show only events on that day?

Using mod_rewrite for clean urls…not sure if that’s relevant.

I’m sure this is trivial, but I just can’t seem to see it.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zem_event [flexible integrated event management]

First of all: what a beautiful plugin. Many thanks to the programmers and contributors.

Since I am using the <txp:zem_event_calendar_nav /> to display the current month, how do I hide the month that is displayed on top by <txp:zem_event_calendar /> ? And how do I hide the ‘event:’ prefix that is inserted before the event title in the calendar?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zem_event [flexible integrated event management]

Johnnie,

I believe the Month display you mean is a table <caption>, so perhaps it can be hidden using some css.

You can change the calendar entries (and remove the ‘event:’ line) by amending the zem_event_cal_entry form.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zem_event [flexible integrated event management]

Regarding ‘?date=…’ URLs: the event list and calendar tags should be sensitive to that URL parameter, unless the tag attributes specify a particular date or date range.

I have considered hiding it using display: none (it is in fact the workaround I’m using right now), but I am wary of tripping a hidden-text (spam) alarm on a pedantic search engine bot. I hereby suggest an attribute in which one can disable (or change) the caption, so one doesn’t have to hack his / her way in CSS to hide double month names when using a nav :)

And thanks about the other point: I wasn’t even aware of the form’s existence ;)

Thanks Zem!
I suspected as much, but can’t get it to work. I may have a rewrite scheme in my .htaccess that’s messing it up.
I’ll try it in a test page and see if I can get a very basic setup working.

For hiding months’ names? I couldn’t care less. People hide whole site menus with display:none (Suckerfish for example), so any particular search engine banning sites for hiding such unmonetizable texts like “April” or “March” will be out of business soon, IMHO.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zem_event [flexible integrated event management]

Are the mini-cal problems fixed? Wondering, because in my case I have the same problems as before.

The prev/next arrows are fine, but the events don’t show up in the mini-cal.

I have this in the page:
<h2>Mini Calendar</h2>
<txp:zem_event_calendar_nav class=“minical_nav” />
<txp:zem_event_mini_calendar class=“minical” class_event=“full” class_empty=“empty” section=“mysection” />

Outputs the mini-cal fine, just no events. Tried deleting articles/events, then adding new ones, no difference.

Style sheet:
/*=MINICALENDAR
———————————————-*/
.minical { clear: both; width: 100%;}

.minical td {
padding: 1px 3px 4px;
text-align: center;
}
.minical td a {font-weight: bold;}
.minical .full{
background: #EFEFEF;
border: 1px solid #DDD}

.minical caption {
font-size: 18px;
}
.minical_nav {text-align: center;}
.minical_nav a.next,
.minical_nav h3,
.minical_nav a.prev{
font-size: 25px;
display: inline;
}
#sidebar .minical_nav h3 {
font-size: 15px;
margin: 0;}
#sidebar .minical_nav a.next,
#sidebar .minical_nav a.prev {font-size: 20px}

And finally, I also don’t see the jquery datepicker in the article write screen. As in, I can’t see the small icon to click. If I mouseover, I can click on it, and it opens fine, but the icon or image representing the datepicker does not display in either Safari or FF.

Are we supposed to link to the JS files in the head of the page?

Flushed cache too.

??!
