[NEW PLUGIN] Calendar v1
Hi,

I'm pleased to announce our latest plugin. This is a lot more comprehensive that the "Calendar" plugin (the "Calendar" plugin is aimed at smaller sites, who don't need quite as many bells and whistles =)).

CalendarPro

PRICE: $125 [ more details ]

Plugin Description:

This plugin gives you users a simple to use "Calendar" system. They can add their own dates, as well as modify them. It has a nice and clear "list" form for showing you the things that have been added for any given day. They can even view a 7 day "span" (i.e the current day, and the next 6 days), the entire month - and even a whole year (with mini-calendars)

You can also view a full list (i.e just a list of dates, with their descriptions) - so they can see every single entry (and subject) they have added. simply clicking on the date.

This version also allows the option for the users to change the time format (i.e 12 hour or 24 hour), and the ability to turn on/off the "reminders" that are show on the calendar front page, as well as any other pages you put the code for showing them on =)

This plugin is also included in the following plugin packages (click for more details):

  1. LinksSQL ULTRA Package
  2. LinksSQL ULTRA Package PRO


Plugin Requirements:

1. Gossamer Links 3.0.1+
2. Calendar::Simple

Demo:

You can view the demo here: http://www.gossamerlinks.com/...bin/dev/calendar.cgi

You need to create an account, before you can use this feature.

Features:

* Ability to add a listing for ANY date.
* You can select an exact hour and minutes for the record (i.e "10:13 go to Dentist")
* Easy to edit your listings, if needed (either due to a mistake being made, or just generally needing to change an entry)
* Easy to use mini-calendar, which fits nicely into the left sidebar.
* You can scroll back and forwards months/years, by using the "next" and "prev" features on the mini-calendar.
* All dates on the mini-calendar as clickable, so you just select the month - goto the day you want, and it will give you a list of the entries for that day.
* Fits right into the luna template set, so it should be as simple as installing, and it will work.
* User can decide what time format they want to use, i.e 12 hour or 24 hour
* Users can turn off the "Reminder" feature, if they don't want to use it.
* You can view several date formats:

o Current day
o Any other date (by just clicking on it)
o The current day + next 6 days (i.e a week)
o An entire month.
o The whole year (starting from January)

Hi Andy,
just tried to install this plugin, but I have no Calendar Simple.pm installed on my server.
I tried to put Simple.pm in the glinks folder admin/WWW/Calendar but I still get the error message
Code:
Can't locate Calendar/Simple.pm

Thanks
Matthias

Hi,

What you probably need to do, is download:

http://search.cpan.org/...r-Simple-1.17.tar.gz

Then, upload all the contents of the \Calendar-Simple-1.17\Calendar-Simple-1.17\lib folder (on your machine), to your GLinks admin folder.

So, this should give you:

/admin/Calendar/Simple.pm

Hopefully that will work. Otherwise, you will need to get it installed via your host at SSH level I'm afraid.

Cheers

Hi Andy,
is it possible to add an option like "public entries" or "private entries".
So I can show something like an event calendar with all "public entries" from all users...

Thanks
Matthias

Hi Andy,
my host told me, that he installed the modul.

I just installed the plugin, but when I try to call calender.cgi, I get the following error.
Code:
Can't locate Date/Calc.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /www/htdocs/********/cgi-bin/admin /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i586-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i586-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/i586-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl .) at calendar.cgi line 23.

Hi,

You need Date::Calc installed too I'm afraid :(

You may be able to just upload the Calc.pm file into /admin/Date/

Hope that helps.

Hi Andy,
finally all the modules are installed and the plugin is working,
except the options page shows an error.

Code:
Unable to load module 'GMail::Messages':

It would be nice to have the option to change the date format, too.
date.month.year like we have it in germany.

And the feature I wrote above, with the public calendar and the private calender would be great...

Thanks
Matthias

Hi,

"Calendar" (http://www.ultranerds.com/...rsion/Calendar_L213/), is for GLinks.

There is also a plugin called "Calendar" for GMail, and Calendar PRO (for GMail)

Hope that helps.

Cheers

Upps I thinks its a typo in the readme
it says
Code:
<%if small_calendar%>
<div>
<%small_calendar%>
</div>
<%else%>
<div>
<%Plugins::GMail::CalendarPro::small_calendar_gen%>
</div>
<%endif%>


I can include the calendar with

Code:
<%if small_calendar%>
<div>
<%small_calendar%>
</div>
<%else%>
<div>
<%Plugins::Calendar::small_calendar_gen%>
</div>
<%endif%>

but the links of each day are wrong and go to the error page...

Thanks
Matthias

Hi Andy,
just want to remind you on the features (change date format, and public calendar beside private calendar) we talked about.
By the way do you know the google calendar:
http://www.google.com/....xml&output=html
It has a nice overview (today, next days...) under the calendar.

Thanks
Matthias
