I have a date in there that displays that i cannot get rid of, any suggestions.
BTW if i go to the date there is nothing on.
Also the birthdays are not being displayed.

Thanks in advance

A link would be most helpful so I can see exactly what you are referring to.

Do the birthdays show if you use the standalone version supplied as part of vBa?

Easy installation on my second vb 3.6.1/2.2.0 board, thanks again Tom.

Find (should be 2 instances of this):

$vbphrase['holiday_title_' . $eventinfo['varname']]

replace with:

$vbphrase['holiday' . $eventinfo['holidayid'] . '_title']

Congrats Tobad! It finally worked!
Excellent script Tom!

Not sure about the display of events that already happened as it's for "Upcoming Events"

The limit on the number of events to display feature has been added to the Standalone version of the module. You should be able to modify the code in a similar manner and just hard code the number of days that you want displayed.

Everything is working well with my 3.5.4. & cmps 2.1 But I got a slight prob with the above. How do go about fixing it up?

TIA

If things are working right then you can ignore the messages. Otherwise you need to see what the differences are and apply any changes.

Does anybody know how to remove the calendar so this module only shows Upcoming Events?

If you only want to show Upcoming Events then you should use just the Upcoming Events module

It's basically the same code (actually has more flexibility) but doesn't have the calendar or birthdays.

Help! I've just done this edit and I'm still not having the Admin defined holiday titles appearing. Any other possible reason for this?

Do I have to reinstall any of the module?

Did you make the change to the cmps index file?

$phrasegroups = array('holiday');

Ah, thanks Tom - working perfectly now. I must have missed that instruction when going through the thread.

Thanks for that, and an excellent module, and Tobad for the edit as well.

[Danuk2]

installed and working fine. thanks for your hard work.

Does anyone know if it's possible to alter the code so that events from let's say Calendar one display in the color "Red" and events from Calendar two display in the color "Blue"? I would think you could add an IF statement maybe in the events template. Any suggetions?

This was requested by some regular users on my site. I started poking around, and thought I'd get some input first before I start playing around.

Thanks!

Just to clarify... are you talking about wanting the text to appear red/blue? If so it will take a template change as well as a code change in the php file as the calendar information isn't saved along with the event when building the display information. It wouldn't be hard to do if you know php but the other choice is to have multiple calendars show instead of having all the info show on a single calendar. The latter can be accomplished by using the "Upcoming Events" version of the module which only shows the events and not the entire calendar.

Is there any way to have it show events from 2 different calendars? Only showing events that users have access to?

Thanks

Yes and no.

The Combo Calendar can only display events from a single calendar.

There is an Upcoming Events module (one for 3.5 and one for 3.6) that supports the display of a single calendar or all calendars. It's not possible to choose, say, 3 out of 5 defined calendars.

All versions only show events that users have permissions to access.

Hm, the module doesn´t works with CMPS 3.0!?!? Nothing will showing up in the frontend... In the ACP everything is fine.
