list view of events
Date Added: June 20, 2008
I thought it would be nice if there was a list view of events similar to below:
June 20 -- Event one
July 4 -- Independance Day
Ect.
The way the date show wouldn't matter, for me anyway. This would be nice for inclusion in a newsletter or for RSS Feed. For me it would work fine if it would show one month at a time.
couple small bugs I noticed.
Date Added: June 16, 2008
Just a ouple things ive noticed.
the url parsing function seems to butcher the URL.
The title and notes variables should be run through mysql_real_escape_string to resolve any puction causing mysql query errors.
In firefox when viewing a calender entry which not editing it, the height value limits height of the "text area" ut the text actually displays well below it when there is a lot of info in the record. Removing the height attribute simply causes this space to expand to accomidate the whole test for the record.
$notesVal = "<pre style='width:100%; height:150px; font: normal 10pt;'>".detectAddURLsLinks($notes)."</pre>";
Apostrophes arent properly escaped when submitting an event
Date Added: June 16, 2008
FYI, great script.
As the title states apostrophes arent properly escaped so mysql errors occure when submitting an item that has apostrophes in it.
Add start and end time to events?
Date Added: June 12, 2008
Would be usefull for my application to have available not only the start date (and the end date as suggested in a different post) but the start and end times of the event as well.
The current field "stamp" is of type "varchar(60)", maybe a type "datetime" would help.
Thank you.
Link Back to Parent Web Site
Date Added: May 30, 2008
It would be anioce useful feature for less savy "Programmers" if on the set up or prefs screen a URL was allowed to be entered that created a link back to for example the Home Page of the hosting site as currently if you log off youy cannot use the back button to go anywhere
Otherwise a brilliant pice of PHP SQL and development and how come you are not charging yet?
Make script Validate as xhtml
Date Added: May 27, 2008
My organazations website strives to validate as XHTML Strict. I have tried to make a few changes to validate this script, but it usually causes problems. Maybe sometime this script could be written to validate as XHTML strict.
It's not leap year compliant.
Your better off having php create your month list as it takes into consideration if it's a leap year or not.
Updated On: April 28, 2008
Just to note that the calendar is leap year compliant. The part that this suggestion is looking at is the event edit page when selecting the day to move or copy the event. It may show 29 days for February when there is only 28.
I will fix this issue, but the calendar itself with the way it handles the dates in the calendar is leap year compliant.
Quarterly (3 month) print?
Date Added: April 27, 2008
First off I agree with a couple of suggestions below, it would be nice to have reoccuring events on the X'th of the month, eg the second tuesday of every month(unless specified).
Also it would be helpful, for my organization's site, to have the option to print a quarterly (3 month) calendar.
Thanks for the great Calendar!
search and perhaps email functions
Date Added: April 23, 2008
hey Dave,
Could you add a search function? For example when I want Hannah's birthday, I search for "Hannah" perhaps in birthdays or global. It returns the day Hannah appears in the calendar.
If that's not enough work for you, how about an email function where the user signs up for an email for all events each day.
You know me. I'll gladly pay you for your efforts!
thanks!
Updated On: April 28, 2008
The search function has been added to v.95.2.
show one event in all category filters
Date Added: April 21, 2008
Is there any way, either currently or in the future to have it so that one event cane be shown in multiple categories?
Updated On: April 28, 2008
As of v.95.2 you can have an event part of multiple categories. So, you could have an event that is part of all categories which would show up in all category filters.
Colour in weekly view
Date Added: April 17, 2008
When viewing the calender and changing from monthly to weekly view the category colour is not displayed. It would be great if this could be fixed.
Thanks for a great calender application.
Updated On: April 28, 2008
As of v.95.2 this has been fixed.
Weekly and daily private too!
Date Added: April 9, 2008
Right now when you make an event private, it does not appear in the public monthy view. But it still appears in the weekly or daily public view. This defeats the purpose of making it private. It would be real nice if it was hidden in those views also.
Really nice calendar, thank you!
Updated On: April 28, 2008
As of v.95.2 this has been fixed.
configuration suggestion
Date Added: March 30, 2008
In config/db.php the instruction "Change the host, user, password, and database to match your database settings" was a little confusing to this php newbie. Perhaps adding: change the info between the "" will make it more clear.
But hey, if I could figure out how to run the mysql script after trying to do this for another calendar program (the other instructions were really vague) I am proud of myself.
This calendar does exactly what I was looking for for my church website. Thanks.
More recurrent event options
Date Added: March 3, 2008
Great program, just need one feature: the ability to have recurring events more than once a year. Like:
- once per week (define day of week)
- once per month (define day of month)
Thanks!
Oops forgot:
- day of week for every xth week of month (so you can do once-a-month events that fall on a certain weekday)
register_globals off
Date Added: February 14, 2008
I'm running ezsneezycal on a Windows/IIS/MySQL/PHP box and I need to turn register_globals to on in order to make it work. Otherwise I just get a blank error 500 screen.
The setup itself works fine with register_globals off.
Daniel.
Updated On: April 9, 2008
It was a problem with the way sessions was created and handled. This has been fixed.
Multiple categories at the same time
Date Added: February 4, 2008
It would be nice if a user could be set to many categories at the same time. Ie. User 1 is set so that he can add events to categories "Events" and "Finances" and User 2 can add events to categories "Events" and "Marketing" but not finances.
Updated On: February 11, 2008
This functionality was added to Version v.95 beta along with many other Adds, fixes, and changes.
More user types
Date Added: February 3, 2008
I would like to see a user type, that can add and delete events, but not change or delete events that other users have added.
Updated On: February 3, 2008
This supposed to be a function of the calendar, however do to a bug in the event.php file it didn't work properly. This will be fixed in v.92.1. It should be out tomorrow (January 3, 2008)
Week settings
Date Added: January 31, 2008
It would be realy nice if you could put week settings to change first week day from sunday to monday.
P.S. Realy nice calendar ;)
Updated On: January 31, 2008
This will be added in version 1.0 coming soon.
Hyperlink Use
Date Added: January 27, 2008
Is there a way to add a hyperlink to the calendar pages that someone could click on to take them to a different page? If not, this would be a great addition.
Updated On: January 31, 2008
This will be added in version 1.0 coming soon.
For those w/ PHP versions more recent than 4.2.2
Date Added: January 24, 2008
The setup may not work; it may get stuck on step #1, even if your database connection is successful.
To fix the error, I added the following statement following $cfg statements on lines 8-12 in setup/index.php:
$step = $_GET['step'];
(This tells PHP to look in the URL for a variable named "step")
Once installed, below the calendar you may see a warning (error) that says something like this:
Warning: Unknown(): Your script possibly relies on a session side-effect which existed until PHP 4.2.3. Please be advised that the session extension does not consider global variables as a source of data, unless register_globals is enabled. You can disable this functionality and this warning by setting session.bug_compat_42 or session.bug_compat_warn to off, respectively. in Unknown on line 0
To fix this, you can turn on register_globals just for this script. Create a text file named ".htaccess" and it should contain two lines of code:
php_flag register_globals on
php_value arg_separator.output &
(This tells PHP to ignore your normal web server settings (which should be register_globals off for security reasons) for this specific folder. The second line just helps with hacker injections. You may have to include magic_quotes too. Go to PHP's website and read up on register_globals and magic_quotes if necessary.)
Ultimately, this script needs to be updated to be more compatible w/ PHP 4.2.3 and above (preferably PHP 5.0) because leaving register_globals on can become a security issue quickly!
Updated On: January 24, 2008
I've hanged it so that register_globals does not need to be enabled.
The sessions comparability with PHP 4.2.3 and higher has been fixed.
Also, the typo in the categories setup has ben fixed.
Basic view to include into a website.
Date Added: January 19, 2008
A basic view that can be included in a web site. Maybe have a function that can be included to view a calendar with all categories or just one.
Year View
Date Added: January 19, 2008
I'd like to see a year view with category summeries. You could filter the category and have the category color in the day and a summary list of events to the side.
Show Holidays
Date Added: January 18, 2008
It would be great to have the calendar show the holidays of the year without having to enter them yourself.
Some holidays don't land on the same day of the month or in some cases event the same month (Easter). But, if there was a way to have this work without any work on the users side that would be very helpfull.
Suggestions Welcome...
Date Added: January 17, 2008
I'd like to hear your ideas to make the calender better. What would you like to see changed, fixed, or feature added.
