[RELEASE v2] Today's Events on Main Forum Page

[SysMom]

I just installed the version 3 todaysevents.php and all is well again.

So I don't know if I inadvertantly did something to cause it to break between Saturday and Sunday or if the new version was the fix!

But it's working fine.

I'm still trying to figure out how to get it to display in either the header template or at the top of the forumhome one.

The header file is real tempting -- I hand inserted an announcement in there today, and sort of like it showing up at the top of every page.

Wow - I didn't even notice there was a version 3, or version 2 for that matter!

I'm off to install version 3 to see if that fixes the problem.

Yep - version 3 fix the problem. However I just noticed something weird. When I use the 'bulleted list, it uses the calendar event font color. But when I use linear, it uses some a green color which I don't have in that style. Linear also adds a comma at the end of the list.

I see what happened now. The template codes in the first message picked up this forums calendar colors rather than { calpubliccolor } and { calprivatecolor }.

yea, i just used the default calendar template, and then made my own for the linear listing ...

if you want them to use your own colors, just make your own template and edit the todaysevents.php file...

Actually what I meant was that when you posted the code for the linear templates, this forum converted your { calpubliccolor} (without the space) to {calpubliccolor} - the color used in this forum.

Check your first message and you'll see what I mean.

ahh.... ill fix that.

Nice hack... what would I change to do events for this week, or events for this month?

Thanks

mess with the where clause of the sql query, and possibly $today.

Thanks, this hack is just what I have been looking for! Its great

Anyone notice that the private event color is the same as the public event color even when you've changed them to be totally different colors? Change the public color, the private color follows... I just installed this yesterday, so I assume I have the latest version. Thanks!

Yea.. i think i copied/pasted code, and forgot to change a word when doing a gettemplate()

I'll put a new version online tonight when I get home.
It'll have 2 little fixes.
