Summary | 0000016: submission for {{calendar}} action | ||||
Description | I have written a {{calendar}} action that displays a single month calendar with a few customizable parameters. http://wackowiki.org/Dev/PatchesHacks/Calendar | ||||
Additional Information | {{calendar}} may not be the best name for this action, if a more capable calendar feature is planned. {{monthcalendar}} might be more suitable. | ||||

JimLipsey: Sorry, ACLs have been corrected. The page is now tasteable. |
|
kukutz: How this action can be used practically? For what? =) |
|
JimLipsey: I find it useful to keep a calendar on the homepage and each project page of my personal wiki. It can be useful for any page that stores calendar information. I typically make a borderless, two cell table, with the calendar on the left and a list of important dates on the right. It's not perfect, and I could really use a database-backed calendar action, but it works for my needs. It's also consistent with similar actions in other wikis, such as wikka's: http://wikkawiki.org/JwCalendar http://wikkawiki.org/GmBowenCalendar see also: http://usemod.com/cgi-bin/mb.pl?WikiCalendar |
|
WackoFanatic: I'd love to have this action in Wacko, too - would use it immediately on our soccer team wiki pages. The demo looks nice, good job Jim! |
|
mb: WackoWiki is not an Blog ;), but a calendar could be an very useful supplement, for example: http://wiki.wordpress.org/CalendarPlugin Reason: One of the often usages of Wikis is to log the day-to-day activities of a team. The team may perform technical support, maintenances, software development, or other functions, nevertheless it’s a useful to take advantage of a feature that allows easy creation and management of daily logs. The Team Log top page should have a Calendar-Tag that shows the current month and the next month (or other layouts depending on configurable options). For each day without a log entry, the calendar uses color red (or other defined color). For current day, the calendar uses color yellow. Any day-log is a common wiki page. The important aspect of this is the automatic calendar “table” with current day highlight. |
|
kukutz: Martin, but this action do not support linking to log pages, eh? WackoFanatic, how will you use it? |
|
WackoFanatic: Nothing fancy :) We have a small local soccer team, and we are thinking about having a web site for it (based on wacko) now. Content will be simple: players, schedules, announcements, and so on. And I think it would be nice to display a calendar like that right next to the schedule of games - would make it easier for visitors to see what date it is today and when the next game is, or even on the front page ... |
|
How about having a "Calendar Event Date" field in the options for each page. That way you can have a global calendar by placing the action on each page you want the calendar. That would show all events for the entire wiki. We could add a parameter that lets you limit the range of pages that it takes into account so if we specified "GamesSchedule" it would only show events on the page and it's children (and their children and so on). Could have the pretty page titles displayed in a tool tip when you hover over a date. We could also have an "Events" page that works like the calendar but just displays a list of the events. Again, we could narrow it down to certain page branches by a parameter. Finally, we could tie the two together so that when you click a calendar date with events it opens the CalendarEvents page and shows a clickable list of links for events on that date. If there's only one event it should just go straight to that events page. |
