Now I want to preface this by saying I did NOT write the base version of this calendar. I set it up - it worked, so I went about hacking, rehacking, and deleting, and rewriting many pieces of this thing to get it to work the way I wanted.
[:red]
PLEASE DO NOT CREATE A USER NAME [/] - it is not needed to play with this test version of the calendar. I have this calendar open to anyone wanting to screw with it...you can add and delete items. The stylesheet is the base sheet for my board...
http://www.bladekeep.com/forum/ubbthreads.php That URL goes to a TEST copy - it is not the live version I am running (that is locked away to members)
Features:
- This is standalone from ubbthreads, and requires only ONE change in your ubbt_inc.php (a link to the calendar)
- Should be installed in the ubb directory (ie /ubb/calendar/FILES)
- The version I am running is locked down to members. You input the NAME of the board you want associated with the calendar (mine is "members") and anyone who has read access to that board has access to read the calendar. Otherwise they get the unauthorized page...
- The way it is hard-coded, only Administrators and Moderators have access to WRITE to the calendar.
Other Features:
- I took out the Event "end time" - as it got in my way...but it is there to use.
- The event data all writes to a SEPARATE table in your setup (my table is named ssb_events) - but this table does reside in your UBBTHREADS database (you need to create it).
- Calendar does read the stylesheet the forum member has selected, and uses it. Requires you to add one or two styles into your stylesheet.
_________________________________________________
I didn't know if anyone would care...figured I would toss this out here. Max Fisch's calendar is much cooler if you ask me...the only downside is that you cannot upgrade UBBTHREADS and keep your calendar intact.
With this little calendar, I can upgrade my UBBThreads and the calendar is not touched...nor does the calendar encroach on any UBBTheads files. The ONLY UBB file I changed was the ubbt_inc.php - and that was to include a link in the HEADER of each page...(as you can see on the test calendar).
Anyone has any questions or comments let me know...will answer what I can.
