List events 30 days prior

[Joe Gurney]

First off let me say that the calendar works great. Keep up the great work!

What I am looking to do is display events which have occurred in the past 30 days on the list mode for one particular category.

I have the current months calendar displaying but as the month rolls over all of the past events disappear. Is there a way I can show events which happened in the past 30 days?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Before showing (requiring) the List Mode, you can set the month to the previous month using the $mo variable. This will probably get you close as there isn't an exact way to show the "past 30 days".

One month works just as well <G>

Took me a little while to figure it out but I assume you meant to use the statement:

$mo = $mo -1;

In order to roll the list back one month.

Once I did that it did the trick....

One other little thing, is there a way to show the list mode in reverse order? So that the most recent event is near the top and older dates are towards the bottom?

[Brian]

The List Mode can only display events in chronological order.

You might want to add a check to make sure that you don't roll back $mo to 0.

if ($mo == 1) {
$mo = 12;
$yr -= 1;
} else {
$mo -= 1;
}

Hi ve9gra,

Is there a way to roll back by week instead of months? i.e. someting like $week = $week -1; ? not familiar with php codes....

[ve9gra]

No, that's not possible. The variables that control the display of the calendar and list is $mo (month) and $yr (year)... there's nothing that can set the week.

I have searched in the forum but didn't find the answer on how to list last several month.

Like:

$listMonths = x;
Lists 'x' number of months from the currently displayed Month,

just backward.

Will you help please?

[ve9gra]

You'd have to manipulate your variables to reset $mo and $yr to different values after you've displayed the calendar, in order to back them up 3 months.

Like $mo = $mo - 3;

You'd have to take into account the year in there too and check to make sure that you roll the month over to December for example if you're displaying February... to make sure you don't get a -1 for month.

And then use $listMonths=3; to display the list for the past three months.

this variables not working on my page - I have error message.

Probably I am missing something..

I'll try to put more clear:

There is only normal three calendars on the page.
I need to show the last month and the two previous - not two future.

Also,
how can I change on-click pop-up window name from "Event Viewer" to another name?

[ve9gra]

Ah! You're not using the list. You're using the $MULTI option... Then you'd have to check if $mo and $yr have been initialized yet and then roll back 3 months before you display the calendars.

The quick and dirty way of doing that is simply by passing the variables in the URL. http://svoboda-news.com/5.php?mo=11&yr=2007

But that's not really nice... I know it's been posted somewhere, but can't check now... dinner is ready. Check back in later.

[ve9gra]

PHP Code:

(!isset($_REQUEST['mo'])?$mo=date('m'):$mo=$_REQUEST['mo']);
(!isset($_REQUEST['yr'])?$yr=date('Y'):$yr=$_REQUEST['yr']);


$mo=$mo-3;
if($mo<1){$mo=$mo+12;$yr=$yr-1;} 


Paste this between the $MULTI and the require() lines... I didn't test it but I'm fairly confident that it will work.

[Ihor]

Thank you! Looks like the dinner was tasty.

It works.
The only thing I had to change was $mo-3 to $mo-2.

[Ihor]

Almost forget..

How to change a pop-up window name?

[ve9gra]

I don't think that it's possible. I haven't found anything in the language file, and the rest would be in /calendar/functions/popup.php [which is encrypted and not modifyable].
