View Issue

null@example.com (Smorg) — Thu, 18 Dec 2025 22:18:29 +0000

Hi again

this line

$tillDate = "MONTH+1"; //till date

when changing this to +10 (or whatever), it shows events further ahead as intended, BUT

The month above each event only shows the 2nd month (I.e. the +1 month)

How can I get this to show more events without showing the wrong month ?

Thanks, again

Sort order of events starting at the same time

null@example.com (Smorg) — Mon, 17 Nov 2025 17:31:21 +0000

Hi, where is the sort order being controlled?

Currently, it seems to be sorting by when the entry was made, which is leading to confusion amongst staff as they see things like this:

18:00 Steve
18:00 Chloe
22:00 Chloe
22:00 Steve

As you can see, it's obvious that Chloe has a double slot, but it looks like Steve doesn't.

Wold be great to see

18:00 Steve
18:00 Chloe
22:00 Steve
22:00 Chloe

Even better would to know where I can inut some

's to make

18:00 Steve
18:00 Chloe
-------------------------
22:00 Steve
22:00 Chloe

We only use 10, 2, and 6 as bookable slots.

Thanks again.

Adding the name of the subcatergory to the event title

null@example.com (Smorg) — Wed, 19 Mar 2025 13:18:00 +0000

I have found WHERE to add this, but not sure what variable to use.

In context, I have too many subcategories to be able to use colours to distinguish between them, as the calendar is on display in the room.

Supplementary, where are drop downs for categories being built? I want to be able to hide a category on a particular day.

Thanks

Simple change just cant find where

null@example.com (Smorg) — Fri, 10 Jan 2025 13:37:46 +0000

HI guys, I have made some huge changes to the calendar and very proficient with php, but for the life of me I can not find a way to make the gap at the top of day (above any bookings) bigger, I have had users 'complain' that when the day has a lot of bookings the small space at the top is too small for touch screen use.

I have tried making the space bigger but to no avail

Thanks

Customised Display Screen

null@example.com (Ladjets) — Sun, 24 Nov 2024 08:15:44 +0000

Hi All

I have little understanding of php so this is not something i can do.

Using the display.php can you set the $evtBody = '12458'; //event fields to show (list of numbers: 1: venue, 2: category, 3: description, . . . for more see Settings page - Event templates) so that all the information appears on the same line ?

on the next line have Custom 1 and Custom 2

Thanks

I am to stupid for todos

null@example.com (jomuc) — Mon, 24 Jun 2024 16:17:58 +0000

Unfortunately I don't understand it and after 4 hours of searching I am now ready to ask for help.

The system is newly installed:
Version number: LuxCal Calendar: 5.3.2M
PHP 8.1.29, database: MySQL V10.6.18-MariaDB

I have created a category party and a category todo

What I want is to create an event that lasts one day e.g. birthday party 25.06 - so that the party can take place a lot has to happen.
Buy snacks 2 days before
1 day before room decoration
Heat up the barbecue 2 hours beforehand.

But I don't understand how I can now combine "shopping for snacks" on 23.06 with the event on 25.06 so that it appears in the ToDo list. This can be found at the top right with the hamburger menu.

I would be happy if someone could help before I delete the software in frustration

Customizing

null@example.com (chriscross) — Fri, 23 Feb 2024 04:04:48 +0000

Hi, I hope this is the correct forum to ask customizing questions...

1. I would like to remove the Red Shadow as the active text highlight and change it to a traditional color/font-size change, but am not sure where it is lurking in the code.

2. I would like to make the event listings have curved edges like in the 3rd live calendar demo (the German one, I can't link it)

3. I would like to have a "Copied to Clipboard" prompt appear when clicking the thumbnails... (currently there is no indicator and it confuses new users)

NOTE: the text in the add event form telling users that they can type the name of a thumbnail for it to appear is partially incorrect. It works only for the default thumbnails. Any user-added thumbnails get an invisible DB prefix added to their name which is only visible by the click-to-copy-paste-into-field method. ...this confuses people as well, for typing the visible name will fail to attach the thumbnail.

THANKS! I'll stop here so as not to overload on post

5.2.4 version, drag & drop

null@example.com (cousinhub) — Mon, 12 Feb 2024 06:44:13 +0000

Seen in the admin guide that we can drag& drop events.
Doesn't seem to work on my clean install of 5.2.4, whichever is the display selected or maybe I missed something ?
