views_calendar
Calendar Views with customized dates fields.
Hi everyone.
I have been exploring Drupal for a month and I have found it impressive, amazing piece of work from the Drupal community. Maybe my questions will sound a bit naifs, I’ve been in project coordination for a while, so my coding skills are rusted.
I’ve been trying to use the “calendar” 6.x module applying a new content created with CCK, but I got stuck in creating its View with the View 2 module.
The test is quite simple.
The table {activity} consists in the following:
.- name (the table nodes name field)
.- description (the table nodes body’s field)
A modest proposal: current event module as CCK date fields + views_calendar
So, I just came upon another painful event bugaboo (as pasted in from Richard, when he was troubleshooting):
The navigation on the monthly view only goes up until the last months with events scheduled. sort of, there's some wriggles around what day of the month the event is posted for.
(you can, of course, hack the URL to show empty months in the future, there just isn't any navigation; sorry, there is navigation, but you can only go into the past, not the future)
And then of course there is the famous default "only show the next 30 days" feature, which is confusingly in the "table" section. You can set this to 365 to show a full year, but that is a hardcoded limit: you can't show more than a year.
