p.s. Slightly updated dutch.php

[François Keller]

Thank's Hein for yout contribution and for the typo report. Will be corrected asp.

[Hein Traag]

Frantz,

A small suggestion for this plugin. Would it be possible to add two arrows on the screen where the plugin displays the days in a month. One arrow for going one month back and one for going a month forward.

I updated dutch.php slightly again (again).. it reads better now in my language

certainly possible but i must see how

I was toying with EXIF data on some pictures and then it came to me. Would it be possible to let the calendar sort the pictures on the date that they were actually taken. That date can be retrieved from the EXIF data. Not sure if this is possible, it just sounded cool

Excellent plugin....the idea above would be truly awesome!

[François Keller]

I'll see if it's possible to make this for the next version (possibility to choose between the two ways)

German lang-file added

and a question - how to arrange the button ? As not to be the first ? If you use the userdefined Menue-Button from DesignSettings-CoppermineSettings the Calender-button and the userdefinedButton was both shown in the LeftButtonDesign - see my screenshot

The second screenshot maybe a misconfig in my css - the "Used" Dates from your Calender are shown in a nearly not visible yellow - its from css or from PlugIn? I Use Igames theme.

And the last question for now - The used day shown in the 2nd pict is 2.8.2007 - after klick on this you come to 1.8.2007 and this was the rrealy day from upload - I'm sure! Have a look to next post

[AlexL]

Look at this

[François Keller]

German lang-file added

Thank's AlexL for your contribution, will ad the lang file asp

The second screenshot maybe a misconfig in my css - the "Used" Dates from your Calender are shown in a nearly not visible yellow - its from css or from PlugIn? I Use Igames theme.

It's probably in the plugin CSS, you must change this according your design

And the last question for now - The used day shown in the 2nd pict is 2.8.2007 - after klick on this you come to 1.8.2007 and this was the rrealy day from upload - I'm sure! Have a look to next post

I must have a look at this problem, thank's for reporting

and a question - how to arrange the button ? As not to be the first ? If you use the userdefined Menue-Button from DesignSettings-CoppermineSettings the Calender-button and the userdefinedButton was both shown in the LeftButtonDesign - see my screenshot

problem depending from the theme. I will see if it's possible to find a solution.

Hi, I might have discovered a bug.... I'm a real CPG newbee so fogive if I'm wrong. 

I only want registered user to see my pics. So the logon is prompted when they visit the site.
But when when they do not logon but click on the Calendar button on the menu instead... the calendar is displayed  even when they are not logged on...
I really don't want this so I had to remove the plugin 
Then again I might did something really stupid. I'm not really sure.

Grtz, Tycho

[François Keller]

it's not a bug.
did you see this lines in the codebase.php ?

Code:

function calendar_page_start()
{
 
  global $template_sub_menu, $template_sub_menu_spacer, $template_sub_menu_button, $sub_menu_buttons;
    global $CONFIG, $lang_plugin_calendar;

    require ('plugins/calendar/include/init.inc.php');
    //if(USER_ID){//uncomment this line if you will only registred users to see the link
  calendar_add_admin_button('index.php?file=calendar/calendar',$lang_plugin_calendar['menu_link'],$lang_plugin_calendar['menu_link'],$lang_plugin_calendar['menu_link']);
//}//uncomment this line if you will only registred users to see the link

also just uncomment the two lines...

[François Keller]

Oopss... no i didn't.  Roulement des yeux
As i said i'm a real noob. I learn everyday!

It's not a problem but use the word 'bug' carrefully 

[Farnsi]

nice work, thanks! 

two little problems seem to appear:
the thumbnails of the videofiles are not displayed (no custom thumbs, just the ones which are shown on every videofile)
not all pcturethumbs are displayed, some are missing or the whole page shows no thumbs. on other dates it works perfedtly!

using a stramms modded 1.4.12.

the thumbnails of the videofiles are not displayed (no custom thumbs, just the ones which are shown on every videofile)

i doesn't use videofiles so i can't replicate the problem.

not all pcturethumbs are displayed, some are missing or the whole page shows no thumbs. on other dates it works perfedtly!

not sure to understant what you mean. Can you post a link to your gallery ?

[Farnsi]

sorry, i was a bit in a hurry when i wrote that post and sure, here is my gallery
what i tried to tell you was, that on some dates all thumbs are displayed as they should be, on other dates they are only displayed partially and on others none are shown. a IE user would get a red cross. but see for yourself.
