Hi all, hi Uncle Cheese ,

Very happy with the Event Calendar module , however stuck on localization. I need Live Calendar Widget to display week starting from Monday rather then Sunday. Is there any solution for that ?

I'm using the version from SVN, not sure which version is that, but rather new one :)

Thanks in advance

UPD: Chatting on IRC i realised that non of the guys there knew what is LiveCalendarWidget :) . So just to let you know it comes with event_calendar, and you DONT NEED TO INSTALL ANY WIDGETS :). You can simply call it on a template with $LiveCalendarWidget and it's cool :)

Uncle Cheese - I'm still hoping you will give a proper answer for that :)

For now -for all those NON-USA people who are desperately looking for solution a Wild and Crazy hotfix :

in CalendarUI.class.php
in getWeeks function :

First generated week would have 8 days instead of 7
so in the first FOR cycle (where we iterate $i for weeks do something like :

  $limit=7;
  if($i==0){$limit=8;}

in second FOR cycle , which loop $j for week days chachge number 7 to $limit

for($j=0; $j < $limit; $j++)

So the only problem now - you've got 8 days in the first week so we have to skip it when it comes to
$days->push(new ArrayData(array(...
So we only push the day if its not the first day of the first week with ($i+$j>0)

And the job is done !

Now the only thing is to change LiveCalendarWidget.SS and replace $Sun with $Mon and $Mon with $Sun .

Works fine :) If UC will provide another solution, I would be more than happy to use it :)

Just so everyone could just copy-paste - here the whole getWeeks function from CalendarUI.class.php (around 184 line)

protected function getWeeks()
  {
    $weeks = new DataObjectSet();
    $today = new sfDate();
    $today->clearTime();
    $this->date_counter->firstDayOfMonth()->firstDayOfWeek();
    $view_start = new sfDate($this->date_counter->get());
    $view_end = new sfDate($view_start->addDay($this->rows*7)->subtractDay()->get());
    $view_start->reset();
    $this->start_date->reset();
    $event_map = $this->getEventsFor($view_start, $view_end);
    
 		for($i=0; $i < $this->rows; $i++)
		{
		  
		  $days = new DataObjectSet();
		  $week_range_start = $this->date_counter->format('Ymd');

		  $limit=7;
		  if($i==0){$limit=8;}
		  
			for($j=0; $j < $limit; $j++)
			{
				$current_day = "";
				if(!$this->default_view) {
				  if( ($this->date_counter->get() >= $this->anchor_start->get()) && ($this->date_counter->get() <= $this->anchor_end->get()) )
				    $current_day = "currentDay";
        }		
			  if($i+$j>0)
			  {
				$days->push(new ArrayData(array(
				  'Today'           => $this->date_counter->get() == $today->get() ? "calendarToday" : "",
				  'OutOfMonth'      => $this->date_counter->format('m') != $this->start_date->format('m') ? "calendarOutOfMonth" : "",
				  'CurrentDay'      => $current_day,
				  'HasEvent'        => in_array($this->date_counter->date(), $event_map) ? "hasEvent" : "",
				  'Events'          => $this->calendar->Events(null, $this->date_counter->date(), $this->date_counter->date()), 				  
				  'ShowDayLink' => $this->calendar->Link('view')."/".$this->date_counter->format('Ymd'),
				  'Number'          => $this->date_counter->format('d')
				)));
			  }

				$this->date_counter->addDay();
			
			}
			
			$week_range_end = $this->date_counter->subtractDay()->format('Ymd');
			$this->date_counter->addDay();
			
			 
			 
			
			 
			$weeks->push(new ArrayData(array(
			 'Days' => $days,
			 'ShowWeekLink' => $this->calendar->Link('view')."/".$week_range_start."/".$week_range_end
			)));
		}
		
		
		
		
		
		return $weeks;  
  }

I think my dirty solution was in CalendarUI.class.php I changed:

$view_start = new sfDate($this->date_counter->get());

to

$view_start = new sfDate($this->date_counter->addDay()->get()); 

Awesome patch! Thank you. I'll wrap some conditionals around it so that we can make this a configurable option.

Unclecheese, first thanks for contributing.

I am a novice at SS and nowhere a phd in PHP!!!! :-)

I am trying to implement a calendar into my Page.ss template. I cant seem to do it.

I use:
event_calendar
dateobject_manager
along
multiform
all under SS 2.4.5

I can:
- create calendar pages
- create event_calendar pages

But when i click on DRAFT, i only see Page.ss template but, oddly, with the title of the Calendar Page.

HOW DO I INSERT THE CALENDAR into my Page.ss template?

I cant even see the calendar.

Thanks!
