iCal in 2.x

[TuxDK]

Hey folks

Sorry if it's the wrong area to post, but I am trying to find out if smf 2.x supports iCal or not.
Several forum posts suggests it does and I even found a post that suggested "action=calendar;sa=ical" however that throws an error "You are not allowed to access this section"

Is iCal supported in 2.x and how do I enable it?
Can't seem to find anything in the support documents.

Shameless bumping, I still can't find anything about this.

Sources/Calendar.php says this:



void iCalDownload()
      - offers up a download of an event in iCal 2.0 format.

so it does offer some support for it, however, I'm not very familiar with iCal  to offer some assistance.

looks like there is not directly a correct link for ical in the calendar, if you want to use this feature you need to use a url like this
index.php?action=calendar;sa=ical;eventid=1

where the event id matches the event id in the calendar, you can find it in the url if you edit the event.

i was playing around a little bit.. and started to integrate ical functionality..

to get a simple ical download link in calendar view you need an image called iCal.gif to be displayed.. it has to be placed in your theme folder under /images/icons/
then edit /Themes/default/Calendar.template.php

Code Select Expand

if ($event['can_edit'])
echo '
<a class="modify_event" href="', $event['modify_href'], '"><img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/icons/modify_small.gif" alt="*" /></a>';

echo '
', $event['link'], $event['is_last'] ? '' : ', ';
echo '</div>';

echo '
<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=calendar;sa=ical;eventid=' . $event['id'] . '"><img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/icons/iCal.gif" alt="!" /></a>';

echo '
', $event['link'], $event['is_last'] ? '' : ', ';
echo '</div>';

this is just a start for ical integration.. maybe anyone of you want to help to enhance this.. and build a mod when finished..
