[Module] [3.8.x] Combo: Calendar + Birthdays + Upcoming Events

[Lionel]

I found out the reason. At least in my version. The code below was missing the highlighted '=' operator

if ($cc_events == intval($mod_options['portal_cc_showevents']))

[Lionel]

I looked at original code, it was missing

if ($cc_events = intval($mod_options['portal_cc_showevents']))

btw thanks! Nicely done!

[Lionel]

the first line was also missing it

if ($cc_calid == intval($mod_options['portal_cc_calendarid']))

edit ... actually I think the first line should have been

$cc_calid = intval($mod_options['portal_cc_calendarid']);
// ######################### Calendar #########################
if ($cc_calid)
{

Actually, all of those should be OK as-is. It's simply doing the test and assigning the value at the same time. While there is no harm in doing the assign and following that with the test there should be no functional difference.

Do you have any other event-related plugins running that might mess with the eventstore?

[Lionel]

No, no other event code. It was also not displaying events.
In both instances I had to do

$cc_calid = intval($mod_options['portal_cc_calendarid']);
// ######################### Calendar #########################
if ($cc_calid)
{

and

$cc_events = intval($mod_options['portal_cc_showevents']);
if ($cc_events)
{

I am running 3.82, not that would make a difference.

Thanks for your work on this Tom, looks like a great module.

Hi Tom,
I had this working in the past but have to admit I've had my share of issues with it. Couldn't ever get the birthdays to work (show) with the Combo Calander. So I decided to upgrade to this version and Now I get Nothing even though my Home Page shows the Module as being in the right column. I also had the Birthdays Module(default) added since they didnt show with the combo and Now even though I removed it from the Page it still showed up. I actually had to go to the BD's Module and de-activate it to get it to dissapear. I'm Running vb3.82 with CMPS 3.2 Any help would be deepy appreciated as I REALLY like the concept just can never get it to display correctly...and at this point at ALL???

Thank you,
xT

Do you have a link?

Problem Solved, It apparently was summin in the NEW CMPS or my lack of experience with it. Anyway when I went to Modify the Page VB told me it had Modules active on the page that weren't summin or other. So I just Ok'd it and it put the combo calander there. I still had to modify the templates to use 8 columns instead of 7 but I can deal with that.

Thank you for your Quick responce to my issue Tom, too bad our politicians dont work with same vigilance, we'd all be a lot better off.

I have been having a problem integrating PhotoPlog with CMPS and have resolved the problem - If I add the combo calendar as a module to the PhotoPlog page the page ends up blank.

Perhaps someone may be able to advise if there is a way to do this - thanks!

That's not much to go on... link?

[ibaker]

Tom, unfortunately that is all I have to go on.

If someone else is using PhotoPlog and the Combo Calendar perhaps let us know if you have the same issue.

Tom I will PM you a link to my site

I'm having issues with this mod... I clearly have 5 events in the next 28 days...

But the mod (right) says I have none. And could the mod be edited to display custom field id 1 instead of the name of the event?

Do you display events on your FORUMHOME page? I didn't see any as a Guest and that would also impact your Home page. Make sure both the setting for vb is set to higher than the default value, which is 1 day, along with setting the number of days for the module as it is the MINIMUM of those 2 values that will be displayed by the module.

Custom fields can be displayed but you will need to modify the php file to do so as it's not a default feature. As I recall someone did that earlier so you might try searching the thread.

I've got a strange issue, and I've tried a combination of things via edit modules and add/remove modules.

If I use the combo calendar alone, it displays the calendar and the birthdays, but there isn't any event updates.

If I add the default mini calendar. Then the event updates show, but there are 2 calendars stacked on top of each other.

Has anyone had this issue? and what was done to resolve it?

First things first...

Do you have events showing on the FORUMHOME page? If so, how many days in advance?

A link would also be helpful.

Got a questions.I have vBulletin 3.8.3 with vBadvanced v3.2.0. I uninstalled the old version of combo calendar and installed this one and have a problem.

Events show up fine but under "Todays Birthdays" only the word "array" shows? I keep playing with the settings but just can't find a solution. There are 2 birthdays this month so I figured something show show up of nothing instead of the word "Array"

Here's a link http://rippersplace.com/forum/index.php?

Please let me know!

Thanks.

[Tom M]

That was a problem with the older version when running on 3.8.x and this version was supposed to correct that. The only suggestion I have at this point is to uninstall the module, download it again from the 1st post in this thread and reinstall things.

Make sure to overwrite the php file if it asks about that as the correction is located there. You might even want to delete the existing version of the file from the server if you have access to do so.

I removed the original php file and ran a fresh install. Now the calendar shows up but not events or birthdays?

Module parent is set to none. I have this in the templates used box:
adv_portal_calendar_week
adv_portal_calendar_header
adv_portal_calendar_day
adv_portal_calendar_day_other
calendar_smallmonth_day
adv_portal_birthdays
adv_portal_todaysevents
adv_portal_upcomingevents

What other settings do I need?

Please let me know.

[Coroner]

Reinstalled many times. Set an event for November with combo event days set at 365 and nothing shows. Entered the birth date for my test account for today and nothing shows.

Now I'm in a worst position then before. At least events worked but now nothing. I could have just turned birthdays off and been happy

I have run out of options and patients. Should I assume that this no longer works with the latest versions of cmps and vBulletin?

Every mod and installs are all 100% updated and working fine except this?
