Sorry -- I've been ignoring this forum in order to get my website up and running.

It's now launched, using the multi-calendar mod that Syldes wrote. After several weeks of testing and use I just have one thing to say: IT ROCKS!

See it live -- and loaded full of events -- at www.michwine.com

Note: clicking the top menu button (Wine Calendar) is the same as the "All Listings Statewide" on the dropdown. Each of the other dropdown items selects the event listings for a specific region of the state. The "Submit an Event" button is a contact form -- for now.

Syldes, many thanks!  Hopefully, there will be an upgrade path so I can get back on the "main" development thread when the multi-calendar feature is incorporated.

Hi, can you help me with multiple calendars?
I have used it in my site but when i click on the city calendar it show me all the events and not only city events. Why?
I have use "specific item" but i don't understand what is wrong. Can you help me please?

[syldes]

The "specific itemid" is the way to go.
To use it, you need to have a menu entry pointing to your specific calendar.
If you don't have one yet, while connected in the backend :

• Go to the menu "Menu" , choose "mainmenu" (for example), and clicking "New" on the top-right will bring a new page.
• Then check "Component" on the right, then click "Next" (top right).
• In the new page, type a name for the menu item, choose "JCal Pro" in the components list, and fill the default parameters if you need to, then click "Save" (top right).

At this point you have a menu entry pointing to JCal Pro but with all the events from all the calendars. By modifying the menu entry you just created, you can use the "Calendar name" paremeter to have it to use events only from a specific calendar.

The itemid you need is displayed in the 'itemid' column of the menu items list. That's this value you need to use in the minical module "specific itemid" parameters, to have it linking to specific calendar events display (don't forget to check the "Use specific itemid" parameter)

Great work syldes!!!

I noticed on your demo site you got it to show a breadcrumb trail.

Home -> All calendars -> Calendar 2

How did you do this? Something built into your template or something you had to add yourself? Thanks again, keep up the great work!

[syldes]

Sorry but the breadcrumb is built into the template !

Hi everybody,

I've just installed this cool "extended" Version of Jcal and I've been playing around with it.

Unfortunately, it seems that I won't be able to solve my "problem" (see http://dev.anything-digital.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=71&topic=1163.0) but nevertheless, it does take me a step closer to what I'm looking for.

I was wondering whether it would be possible that the main calender will show - instead of the categories - the names of the other calenders (on the bottom) and when I click on the name it will take me to the events (full view) of that calendar.
Any idea of how this can be accomplished?


I'd be really thankful for any help!!! Thanks in advance...!

I don't know why, but in my live site is all ok...

Thanks for this great modification!And thanks for this great component!!!

[nso]

firstly, thank you so much for taking the time to do this its a godsend

For some reason (probably a user error  ) my latest events module will still only display calendar events for one calender. I have { jcal_latest}X{/jcal_latest} in my Module Calendar field. I want all latest events, i dont care what catagory they are in. Should it be something else?

[gracilyn]

syldes.  Thank you very much for this enhancement.  Unfortunately I am receiving an error which is causing me some trouble.
 Upload universal - Failed

Do you or anyone else have any insight?  Thanks.

I'm crestfallen  This is a beauiful Cal, but without the ability to give individual users their own private calenar its useless to me.

Is anyone willing to develop a version of this that will work for me? I'll gladly pay for it.

Thanks

We are working on this now. Let em know if you want to make a donation.

[pwexler]

I would be happy to make a donation and/or purchase the calendar. Can you offer a time line when the multiple calendar funtionality will be available.

As intreaged as I am with Syldes modification(s) I am reluctant to use because I'm sure it is not support by JCal. Also becuase when the offical release does comes out will I be able to properly upgrade without loosing any events in the database.

Can you help clear my thoughts on this.

Thanks and keep up the good work.

[V-man]

We are beta-testing now. A public beta version should be out soon (a week or two).
