Don't want to use popups

[senojeel]

I have been searching to see if this has been implemented yet, but haven't found an answer...

From the calendar, instead of the event details opening in a popup, I want it to open in another page. I have seen where it was going to be in the next point revision, but can't find if it was added. This is going to determine whether I purchase the product or not.

Otherwise, great product!

Thanks!

Currently you can use the $altLink function:

unset($epcAltLink); $epcAltLink="X";
By inserting this line just before requiring the normal calendar, the calendar will not display pop-ups and will instead link to the URL X when clicked (Example: $epcAltLink="http://www.easyphpcalendar.com/events.php";). This is useful when you have a small calendar on the home page, that when clicked, will then open another page with the TOC calendar or to the listing module, etc...

If you're wanting the blog mode function, it's in development... :)

Thanks Brian,

So what do you put on your events.php page? Or is there one to link to already that exists?

Also, is there documentation somewhere on the $altLink function?

[Brian]

It is documented in the instructions under the Customize/Command-line Variables section. I copied and pasted from there in my previous post.

http://docs.easyphpcalendar.com/Customize/Command-line%20Variables.htm

There is also an example in the demo.php file. You'd need to uncomment that line (remove the //) to see it in action.

Thanks Brian.

Can you make the link go to the event that is on that day? Are there docs that explain variables that need to be passed in order to do that? And should it work from the calendar with text also?

BTW, what does TOC stand for?

Thanks for your help!

TOC is Text on Calendar.

That is what's going to be the Blog mode... which is still under developement.

What blog mode function? This is a first I heard of this one!

[ve9gra]

Blog mode will be where you click on a date on the calendar and it brings you to a page with events for that day only... a page, not a popup.
