Event Calendar v3

I'm interested to know if the scripts helped anyone getting the calendar to work?

Yes, i display event of my book store, for example book presentations.

Hi Aaron,

This Calendar Module has helped a customer of mine - Nice
And will soon go into another's soon..

And with your tip about cleaning the script - Very Nice !
I am trying to add a few more display options at present.
But being a non programmer - I just need time to trial and error what I do :)

Hi everyone,

I can not get the calendar to work. I have tried all versions but nothing. Let me explain:

1. I am using zencart v1.38
2. I tried all different versions of the event calendar and all the same
3. I can access admin/events management but when I click on New Event nothing happens and I can not add an event
4. On the shop sidebox everything looks fine and the month is correct "October" but when I click on "Year View" nothing happens 5. When I try to change month nothing changes

I can not show you a link as currently I am running a local server for testing purposes, sorry.

Any ideas are appreciated.

Thanks

Ok I guess this script will not work with zencart. I have just had a look through the files and discovered that it uses too many javascripts i.e. cssjsmenuhover.css, spiffyCal_v2_1.css, cssjsmenuhover.css

Those are not native to Zen Cart neither they are included with the script.

Ok I guess this script will not work with zencart.....Not quite sure what you mean by that Tassos.
Javascript/css etc are all related to Linux.
Zencart is also just a php/linux program.

As you can read above on this page and the previous, the calendar works rather well (After a small cleanup)

I would suggest you looking at you linux setup on your private machine, to make sure it is setup like a normal Linux server would be.
If it is, all should be good !

All I can say Really, except, have a great evening :)

Hi aussie

We must be close to each other :-) (NSW)

I am very well aware of linux etc and this is not the problem. I am referring rather to the references to specific files throughout the php files.

For example in the events_manager.php there are the following references:

That indicates that there are external stylesheets and javascript files that are not existent.

Also if you read my previous message the problem is that I can not get it to work. Although not a programmer believe me that this is the only module that I have not managed to get it to work.

If you have any ideas please do let me know :-)

Thanks

Hi Tassos,

I am Blue Mountains Man.
Rather warm here tonight :)

With your above references, there are standard in my Zen Cart install under the admin/includes directory.
And as I have a look...
They are all part of the standard 1.3.8a ZenCart Install. (Raw)
So if you do not have them in your admin/includes directory, you might not have a full install that is 100% correct ?
That could be your reason why your Calendar install is not working well ?

(Speculating) :)

Hi aussie,

I am near Blacktown and we should be outside to cool down a bit rather than inside with that heat :-)

My apologies for the comments before the heat must be getting to me. I was looking at the wrong folders and you are correct they are there, sorry.

Maybe I will go outside to cool down the brain first and then give it another shot :-)

Tassos

Hi Tassos,

Blacktown is very close to my St. Marys Office :)
And your right, it would be a lot cooler outside than inside !

An no problems for the comments :)

Have a great night has I head for bed.
Cya at 4:40am :)

Brad :)

hrinfo,
Did you resolve your issue?

I am experiencing the same problem. All with this module seems fine EXCEPT in Admin -> Event Manager, when I click the "new event" button it does nothing. So I seem to be unable to enter any events.

I am going to start backtracking again through all the posts in this thread in the hopes of spotting something I have missed but I'm really confused by this problem. I am under an urgent deadline so if you can point me at a fix please, please do so.

BTW, the gypsyangel.com implementation looks great! (to the programmer that rolled that out for their customer) Great job getting the calendar mod up and running!

Thanks in advance for any and all replies,
Ian

As a non programmer - but just a host - it did go well.

Since I cleaned up every file - just about, I would recommend you looking at that maybe, to see if it resolves the problem.
As you can see by the GypsyAngel site, entry is no problems at all for her.

Brad :)

Thanks Brad,
You built gypsyangel for that client? Great job, man.

Yeah, I'll stop working on my site and hand clean each of these files I guess, but krikies! I wasn't ready to have to do this tonight, this is seriously going to slow me down. Of course IF I find the offending line tha allows creation of a new event, I will post the solution back here with the cleaned code. But again, YIKES!. If ANYONE knows what would be preventing the "new event" button from actually generating a page that could create a new event, PLEASE put me on it to speed this up.

Brad, thanks again for your replay, and great job on that site, man.

Ian

Ok,
I may be tryibg to staple jello to the wall here.... but

in /admin/events_manager.php... in the switch case area, there look to be a number of re-writes that turn action into "new". Am I mistaken that there IS no:
case 'update'
and SHOULD be?

Sorry, it's just importan I get this solved quick and I'm trying to quickly follow the logic of what takes place when "new event" buton gets clicked in events manager.

Anyone?

Ian

Nuts, no discernible improvement. I'm going to have to move on to configuring the rest of this site and hope to get back to this (appears to be) great contribution.

In the meantime, I'm subscribed to this thread with instant email notification on, so if you think you might know why when I click on the "new event" button in admin that nothing happens, do please reply here.

Ian

Hi Brad,

We are much closer than I thought as I am in Blackett :smile:

Anyway thanks for all the replies. I have just decided to give up on this script. I have reinstalled everything and went over every single file and tried to clean everything up. I have even removed all the comments in the files to ensure that I am not missing anything. Obviously there is something that I am missing but I guess spending three days on it without success (and without even getting paid for it) it is not worth. :cry: Maybe I try again in few weeks time but I have enough for the moment

Anyway thank you again and maybe one day we can catch up for a coffee.

I just wanted to share one thought as to the potential problem. An earlier release of this program included duplicate files which were proceeded with a "." This caused some unusual problems for me until I went back and deleted all the files which began with a "."

If you previously installed an earlier version of this program, I would make sure there are no files such as .events_manager.php or any files which begin with a "." in any of the /admin subdirectories (that goes for all the events calendar files).

falstaffpac,
If it helps, I just downloaded this today, am on OS X and I routinely have show invisibles turned ON, and no, there are no dot files in these directories of what I downloaded.

I think there is some incompatibility between this iteration of the module and Zen v1.3.8a??

I'd LOVE for it to work, but like hrinfo, I am crazy busy right now and just cant give it more time myself yet.

Ian

I would like to modify this calendar for day events. Where would I look to change the "end date" for "time of the day"?
Tx

ooohhh, I am soo frustrated that clicking "new event" does nothing. Am I the only one that has had this problem? Can anyone help here? I'd love to show this to my client tomorrow but not with a broken calendar.
Thanks,
Ian
