Some people suggested about adding separated Today and Upcoming Holidays and I finally found time to do it. It's now updated.

[Gendji]

Cool thank you very much 

[Gendji]

Installed it and it's working great.

The only thing i noticed is that everything is listed underneath each other instead of side by side.

Is it possible to change that? And if so what do i need 2 change

Holiday titles are displayed in horizontal line separated by comma. If you will show me a sample image of what you want then I'll tell you what to do. If you can do it yourself, edit BoardIndex.template.php, find

Code Select Expand

// Holidays like "Christmas", "Chanukah", and "We Love [Unknown] Day" :P.
and start from there.

I tested out the feature and I'm getting an odd error on my screen.  It is showing the Birthdays twice, but the events only once.  I've attached a pic of what I'm talking about.  I would think if the code was accidently put on twice, that both the events and the birthday would show twice.




Had another birthday appear today and the same thing happened.. it was shown twice..

It must be conflicting with another mod somewhere.  I'm going to go back over all the edits because I haven't uninstalled the mod, but it stopped showing it completely.  I'm getting errors in my log referring to this mod, but regarding to when people are using other functions that don't relate to this.  v2.0 b3.1 is what I'm using.  Will let you know what I find.

The example pictures from your mod have Birthdays on the left and Events on the right.

The way it displays on my forum now is:

Today's Holiday: Test Holiday
Upcoming Holiday: Labor Day
Today's Birthday: Gendji
Upcoming Birthday: Gendji
Today's Event: * Test event
Upcoming Event: * Another Test Event

What i am looking for is something like this:

Today's Holiday: Test Holiday Upcoming Holiday: Labor Day

Today's Birthday: Gendji Upcoming Birthday: Gendji

Today's Event: * Test event Upcoming Event: * Another Test Event

It's kinda like in your example picture just instead of the 2 being left and right it would be all 3, aligned left, middle and right.

Hope i am making sense

I'm not certain it is this mod or the Member Color Link mod.

I cleared my error log and cache, signed out.  (restarted computer)

Wanted everything to be fresh after clearing my data on the browser, too.

I went in and changed my birthday to today, so I could get a birthday on the screen for today.  Then, added some events to test that out, too.

I had two errors appear in my log (attached).  I still get the same visuals on the info center screen.  Today's Bday is still showing up twice.  (once in color of calendar and once in color of event type)
Upcoming Bday's are shown twice. (both in calendar color)
The Today's events are shown once each (both in color of event type)
(attached)

Everything shows in calendar correctly.  (attached)

I'm going to attach my Load.php file since that is where the error is showing.

@Genji
   To make three columns, edit your BoardIndex.template.php.

Code (find) Select Expand

echo '<span class="smalltext" style="color: #', $modSettings['cal_bdaycolor'], ';">';
replace

echo '</td><td><span class="smalltext" style="color: #', $modSettings['cal_bdaycolor'], ';">';

Code (find) Select Expand

echo '<span class="smalltext" style="color: #', $modSettings['cal_eventcolor'], ';">';
replace

echo '</td><td><span class="smalltext" style="color: #', $modSettings['cal_eventcolor'], ';">';

I added "</td><td>" on both lines.

@tk2012
   There's nothing wrong with your files. This mod was installed properly. I think it is the ColorLink mod that is causing the problem. Try reinstalling the MemberColorLink mod.

@F.L.A.M.E.R
   Yes, you have to enable the calendar and configure the settings. Admin => Calendar => Calendar Settings.

[Gendji]

Thank you 

[Bulakbol]

Thank you 

You are welcome. if you need further assistance, just post here. Thank you too for using/trying this mod.

i actually wanted that the "Calender" link in the navigation.. i thought this mod would do so and add an extra option in the admin panel... any edits i can do to do it like that ?

[Bulakbol]

Sorry. I just separated the "holidays today" from "upcoming holidays". What option are you looking for? Link to where?

[Adish - (F.L.A.M.E.R)]

i was just looking for the bday section to appear at the base.. and the "Calender" text in the navigation should not appear up... well i can actually remove it from index.template.php but it will cause me errors as the link wond be found...so just like to add an option or do some setting to remove the "Calender" text from the navigation bar and yet keep today's bday on the base...

[Bulakbol]

How did you do it? Removing the "Calendar" tab is easy.

[Adish - (F.L.A.M.E.R)]

yes i can but i dont want to remove it for time being coz next time if i want it i have to search for the theme again, then unzip it... then open the index.template.php ... then copy the code.. and then paste it where it should be originally...

and also i am afraid that if i remove that code from there.. it maybe possible that, that space is kept blank and no other navigation link can be posted there as it is as default in smf...

I actually just want something like a tickbox that would say "show the calender tab ?" which i can choose when i want the tab over in the navigation and untick it when not needed there....

Possible ?

[Bulakbol]

It can't be part of the mod but you can do it. IMO, it is easier to comment-out the codes but you can do the checkbox if you want. You have to edit files though.

[Adish - (F.L.A.M.E.R)]

can you please give me the checkbox edit please.. I am ready to do the edits..

Thankyou for your quick reply.

[Bulakbol]

You can try. Edit your Settings.template.php and look for

Code Select Expand

array(
'id' => 'show_modify',
replace with

Code Select Expand

array(
'id' => 'calendar_tab',
'label' => 'Hide Calendar tab',
),
array(
'id' => 'show_modify',

Then edit your index.template.php and find

Code Select Expand

if ($context['allow_calendar'])

replace

Code Select Expand

if ($context['allow_calendar'] && empty($settings['calendar_tab']))

You can now hide the tab by going to Admin => Current Theme, then tick the "Hide Calendar tab" checkbox.
