Installation
This is a calendaring application based on DPL functionality.
How to use it for your websites:
Download the following templates, and create them into your wiki
These templates are needed to know how to display properly the month calendar. Months are categorized by the day of the week of the first day:
This template calls the proper template above, with a parameter input for each day:
Finally this is the template that calculates the parameter for each day for above template (based on DPL):
This template is not mandatory, it is designed to ease the creation of an event, although it can be done by other means:
Download additional extensions
download "parserfunctions" and "inputbox" from mediawiki website.
Create a page for each month
Now, create the base page where the current month calendar will be created (like "Current events"), and insert below code in it:
{{:Test calendar {{#time: F Y}}}}
- Finally, create one page per month with the format "base page Month year" (example: "Current events April 2007"), insert below code and make sure to replace "2007/04" below by the month and year from the current page name (as well as the year and month parameters from CalendarSingle template):
{|
|<inputbox>
type=create
buttonlabel=create new Event
width=25
default=2007/04/05 my event name
preload=Event template
break=no
</inputbox>
|}
{{CalendarSingle|year=2007|month=04|show_year=yes|basepage=Test calendar}}
{{#dpl:category=Events
|titlematch=2007/04%
|include=#Summary,#Participants
|mode=userformat
|resultsheader=There are %PAGES% events planned this month.
|noresultsheader=No events planned so far for this month.
|listseparators=¶{¦ class="wikitable" ¶!Date / Event name ¶!Categories ¶!Event summary ¶!Participants,¶¦-¶¦<h5>[[%PAGE%]]</h5>¶¦ %CATLIST%,,¶¦}
|secseparators=¶¦
|ordermethod=title
|addcategories=true
|order=descending
}}
- To create a custom event, edit the template Event template, and edit the above DPL.
