Version 3.0 coming soon

Just added dates for previous and next months in the "spaces" - the question is, should these be "clickable" aswell?

Not a big deal either way but if it's easy, you might as well make them clickable.

And... I see you have the selectable calendar installed on the user page... Looking good!
How long before you're ready to release it?

I was thinking about what I said yesterday and yes, it is quite a big job.
Not the clicking the dates in itself, but the subsequent need to also get these dates states when the calendar is drawn.
I would need to check the calendar for each previous and posterior date to see if it is in the db and get it's state.
Not particularly hard, just not sure if it is worth the overhead as regards code and loading times.

Might jot that down in the roadmap..... (which I need to put together)

Thanks for your input.

This version, as you can tell from the demo, is pretty much ready.
I just need to stop messing with it and get my head down to make the install script

Any thoughts on setting a simple default filter (for programmers) to specify specific calendars on specific pages (see post on 8/26)?

So you want to be able to show the calendars for various items on the same page?

I was thinking that, for example, if you had several rentals, each rental could have a specific web page for that rental. It would be great if you could set a variable on that specific page to show just that rental calendar. This would only be necessary for the user page. The variable could be something like 'show_calendar=1,4,7' which would filter the drop-down menu to only show calendars with those specific ID#s.

The admin page wouldn't need to filter - it would work just like you have it now.

Does this make sense?

[chris]

AH, OK, I see what you mean.

To be honest I don't see that as being a commonly needed feature to be worth adding.
Most users just use the calendar for one "item".

That said, it would be a simple thing for a programmer to add themseleves.

PS. install script nearly ready....

Hi, I'm afraid that the version 3.0 is not quite ready for release yet.
I am currently working on a client project so am unable to sort out the finishing touches at the moment.

Sorry. I will post the details of it here as soon as it is ready.
