mycalendar plugin and longer events

[ju]

I use mycalendar plugin on www.queernews.at to announce events. It works fine, but I have a problem with events that last longer than one day - eg from November 4th to November 8th. It only shows before and on Nov. 4th. When the day is over, it gets offline. So either I have to update it every day or I have to keep old events online for some days (which will make the list long and confusing because it shows events that are over). Would be nice to have a solution in a future version

Hi!

I think this should be easily doable. Could you edit the serendipity_plugin_mycalendar.php file and simply replace this line:

Code: Select all

 $filter = "WHERE eventdate > " . $timeout;

with:

Code: Select all

 $filter = "WHERE eventdate2 > " . $timeout;

This should use the end-date instead of the start-date as the filtering point. If that works out for you, I can update the plugin!

If that works out for you, I can update the plugin!

Did you find the time for an update meanwhile?

Hi!

Just committed it.

hi,

in the backend should made a similar patch, I think.

So that the "delete me" button is not dependend from eventdate but eventdate2, too.

and perhaps in the layout, the button could be after the eventdate2 field?

Hi, I have an other problem with this plugin.
I use it to display aevents but the description of the event is never shown.
I can enter it while im making the post but it doesnt show up anywhere.

And maybe there is an option to link it to the post automaticly?


Thanks
