old calendar
Dear Kenyu73, I have been using your "old" calendar extension Extension:Calendar (Kenyu73) for some while now. I was wondering why you now use direct database calls? What will be the advantage? Will we be able to "import" the old calenders? Thank you. --MartinK 10:23, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

re:
yes, you can import the old calendar, but the code isn't documented yet and only supports the original date format. The main purpose of direct db usage is speed and control. I create and store the calendar events in my own tables and plan to have all the options stored in tables via an option form.

re:
Great. I'm looking forward to it ;-) --MartinK 14:08, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

Calendar beta testing

 * Issue with Nav buttons not working, should be fixed in v0.2.1.... Please test and let me know if it's OK now. Thanks!

sorry
but I've got no google-account yet.. First: No changes - still same problem. Then I found out, that when changing skin (I'm using modern skin) database is updated. validating database checking tables...

running database update scripts...

VALIDATION COMPLETED (please refresh) Now I see the addEvent-form. But after switching back to modern skin I still have an error.

Warning: Variable passed to each is not an array or object in C:\Programme\WebServer\xampp\htdocs\mediawiki\extensions\mwcalendar\includes\main.php on line 67

Best regads, asomy.

re
asomy - I dont understand - does it now work? That message is only a warning and shouldn't cause any issues. I changed my wiki to modern skin and I'm still running fine.


 * OK, I try to explain better (sorry for my bad english..).  First, I noticed, that I can see the form, when displaying the page printable (hm, in german this is Druckversion.. don't know what the english version is called). Adding events seems not working. You can fill out the form, but in the calendar nothing is shown.  So I decided to change the skin. My standard skin was modern, so I switched to monobook. Then I saw the form on my page. Now I switched back to modern skin and it looks kind of strange... The letters are to big now and I get this warning on top of page - but only on this page using the calendar. - asomy

Thanks for fixing Issue Nr. 1

Feature Request
This would be a great feature from our sight: Every time a user updates the calendar, an .ics-File (iCal) with fixed url is also updated, so by downloading this file one has always the recent dates. I know that WebDAV is much more powerful, but we need a lightweight solution fitting in our Wiki-only concept. --Waschl
