| + | #REDIRECT [[Calendar]] |
| − | ==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:
| |
| − | *[[Template:Calendar/MonthStartMon]] // all months that start on a Monday
| |
| − | *[[Template:Calendar/MonthStartTue]] // etc...
| |
| − | *[[Template:Calendar/MonthStartWed]]
| |
| − | *[[Template:Calendar/MonthStartThu]]
| |
| − | *[[Template:Calendar/MonthStartFri]]
| |
| − | *[[Template:Calendar/MonthStartSat]]
| |
| − | *[[Template:Calendar/MonthStartSun]]
| |
| − | *[[Template:!]] //a template used for special for cell separation
| |
| − | | |
| − | This template calls the proper template above, with a parameter input for each day:
| |
| − | *[[Template:CalendarSingle]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Download the following templates, and customize them===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This is the template that needs to be called to create each month's page: [[Template:calendar month]]. Call it this way:
| |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | {{calendar month|year=YYYY|month=MM|basepage=your base page name}}
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | This is the template that calculates the parameter for each day for above template (based on DPL):
| |
| − | *[[Template:Calendar link]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | The next templates are not mandatory, they were designed to ease the creation of an event, although this can be done by other means:
| |
| − | *[[Event template]]
| |
| − | *[[Template:Event]] (used by 'Event Template')
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Download additional extensions===
| |
| − | Download the following extensions:
| |
| − | #[http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ParserFunctions parserfunctions] from MW
| |
| − | #[http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Inputbox inputbox] from MW
| |
| − | #[[DPL:Manual - Source_and Installation|DPL extension]] from this site.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Create the base page===
| |
| − | Now, create the base page where the current month calendar will be created (like "Current events"), and insert below code in it:
| |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | __NOTOC__
| |
| − | {{:Test calendar {{#time: F Y}}}}
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | The name of your basepage is important as it must be used as aprefix for each month´s calendar page later. Our base page is named "Test calendar" and as you see its only purpose is to call the specific page for the current month. If you call your basepage 'Current events' then the above example has to changed to
| |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | __NOTOC__
| |
| − | {{:Current events {{#time: F Y}}}}
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Create a page for each month===
| |
| − | Finally, create one page per month with the format "basepage Month year" (example: "Current events April 2007"), insert below code and make sure to replace:
| |
| − | #YYYY by the year (ex: 2007)
| |
| − | #mm by the month (ex:06)
| |
| − | #pageXYZ by the base page name (example: "Current events") | |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | {{calendar month|year=YYYY|month=mm|basepage=pageXYZ}}
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | Note: In this wiki we use "Test calendar" as basepage, so the articles are called "Test calendar September 2007" and so on.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | === Customizing the event pages and event presentation===
| |
| − | To customize the type of page the calendar application needs to look for, just modify the '''titlematch''' parameter in the [[Template:Calendar link]] template, as well as in the DPL in the above [[Template:calendar month]] template.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | To customize the list of events that are displayed below each calendar, take a close look in the DPL manual at the '''include''' parameter ([[include|see here]]). In our example in template [[Template:calendar month]], we have:
| |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | #Summary,#Participants
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | which means take the content of summary and participants sections.
| |
| − | | |
| − | We could modify the name of sections, the number of sections or even take the parameters of a template inside the event page. Again, see the DPL manual.
| |
| − | ==Demo==
| |
| − | {{:Test calendar {{#time: F Y}}}}
| |
| − | [[Category:Test]]
