The mini-calendar (display0) version 2019-09-25 has the following improvements:
- the number of weeks displayed depends on the selected month. The automatic resizing of the parent iframe didn't work. Solved.
- the incompatibility problems with the calendar versions 4.7.4 and up, causing a blank new window when clicking the month+year in the header, has been solved.
All users of calendar versions 4.7.4 and up, using the mini-calendar (display0.php) are strongly advised to download the latest display0.php file from the "LuxCal Displays" page of our website.
Hi there,
Please mention the LuxCal version you are using.
This looks like a MySQL server problem. I suggest to search the web for "General error: 2006 MySQL server has gone away".
I would advise calendar users, who are not familiar with a MySQL server to use the SQLite version of the LuxCal calendar. Much easier to manage and no drawbacks.

Hi there,
The problem sounds familiar and I'm sure I've solved it already in the past, but I can't find any record of the solution.
Would it be possible to send me the URL of your webpage with the mini calendar (via the Contact Us page), so that I can have a look at your mini calendar?
Roel
Hi David,
Could you give me the exact text of the error message.
If it is really the same problem . . .
"Not Acceptable!
An appropriate representation of the requested resource could not be found on this server. This error was generated by Mod_Security."
. . . then it is a server problem. If your server has a cPanel, you could try to open the cPanel and go to the section Security and open ModSecurity and disable ModSecurity for the calendar domain.
I searched the web for possible causes and almost all articles refer to a server problem.
You could also ask your provider to get rid of this error message.

Hi there,
This "sales person" is that the one who created the event? If not, where does that name come from? If it is the person who created the event, I can give you a PHP code change to add this name. Please tell us where exactly you would like this name to be added in the display.

Hi Sigmark,
We find the suggestion of having a "to be approved" indicator per user group (rather than just for an event category) interesting and will implement this in the release after the next release.
The point is that we have planned a next release (V4.7.6) rather soon and this will be a release without database schema changes. For your suggestion a database schema change will be required, which takes much more effort and this version will not be released before the end of the year.
If it's important for you, I could try to produce a fix for you, for instance "misusing" one of the current check boxes of the user groups. Let me know if you are interested.

Hi Sigmark,
If the "edited by" field is not updated when deleting an event, please send me your "pages/event.php" file by email (via the Contact Us page); in this file I can see if the "edited by" field is updated.
Roel
Hi There,
No, that's not possible. Email notifications are sent directly when adding / editing an event and the "Send email now" check box is checked, or via the cron job, which runs once a day (early in the morning).
Roel
Hi Sigmark,
Could it be that you are not using the latest LuxCal version? In the past the editor field was not updated when an event was deleted, but in the latest version this has been fixed. I just tested this in our test calendar and it works fine.

Hi Lucas,
When I click an individual event, the pop up window shows the event details 
The change listed above is in a JavaScript file which are cached by the browser. So when the Brüder Grimm Schule page is loaded try refreshing the page (F5) to be sure the changed file is loaded. Thereafter it should be fine.
Roel
Hi Pierre / Lucas,
That's not easy.
The page would look rather strange, the weekends could fall in the middle of the screen and the location of the weekend on the screen would vary per month.
I doubt if this would be useful to other calendar users.
Roel
Hi Lucas,
Both are possible in the current calendar 
Go to the admin's Settings page and in the section "Views" change "Weeks to show in Month view" to 0 or to 1. (Hover over the text "Weeks to show in Month view" for an explanation).
Now in Month view the calendar will always show one full month and with the left and right arrows at the top of the calendar you can skip to a previous or next month.
Roel
Ok, Lucas, here we go!
Edit the file "pages/event.php" and change line 216 from . . .
$nen = isset($_POST['nen']) ? ($_POST['nen'] == 'yes' ? 1 : 0) : 0; //notify Eml now
tp . . .
$nen = isset($_POST['nen']) ? ($_POST['nen'] == 'yes' ? 1 : 0) : 1; //notify Eml now
if you want the "Notify now" check box to be always checked, so when adding and when editing an event (just the "0" at the end changed to "1").
and to . . .
$nen = isset($_POST['nen']) ? ($_POST['nen'] == 'yes' ? 1 : 0) : (($mode == 'add' and !$refresh) ? 1 : 0); //notify Eml now
if you want the "Notify now" check box to be checked only initially when adding an event.
Roel
Hi Lucas,
To have the "Send mail now" check box checked by default, is a minor change. I will have a look and if it's simple I will post the required change here shortly.
Sending all calendar changes (add, edit, delete event) to one or more email addresses is already possible: Open the admin's Settings page and in the section "General" check the check box "Send notification of calendar changes" and specify the email address(es) of the recipient(s).

Hi there,
You found a bug in the way the calendar deals with the "Posting of private events" setting.
I'll start working on a fix.
Send me an email and then I will send you one or two changed files with the fix.
Please mention in your email what calendar version you are using.
Roel
Hi there,
Yes please, send me some iCal files which cause an error. You can use the email address on the Contact Us page.
If it is a bug in the calendar software. I will fix it and send you the file with the fix.
Roel
Hi David,
I had a careful look at the problem and I think you ran into a bug which has already been solved for the next calendar version 4.7.6.
You can fix this for your calendar version 4.7.5 by editing the calendar file "common/toolbox.js" and changing line 128 from . . .
to . . .
if (typeof calID !== 'undefined') { pars.cal1x = calID; } //if defined, use calID; but don't store in session
Thereafter the problem should be solved.
Roel
Hi there,
There is no mention of HTML tags for CSV files in the Edit Event window because importing CSV files has nothing to do with the Edit Event window.
However, the following HTML tags are allowed in imported CSV files: <a>, <b>, <i>, <u>, <s> and <img>.

Ten minutes will do

Hi there,
I had a look at the problem and my findings are the following:
- Your Black Friday events drops of November 2019, but is present as of November 2020. So it doesn't drop of completely 
- It drops of November 2019 because you've put the start date to 29 November 2019, which is the fifth Friday of November 2019. So you have set the start date after the 4th Friday in November 2019!
So to solve this set the start date latest 22 November 2019 (which is the 4th Friday).

Hi there,
The Upcoming Events sidebar was especially designed to have the possibility to display the event details, when hovering an event, outside the sidebar space.
For display on a narrow screen device you should use one of the "displays". Try for instance on your mobile phone this link to LuxCal demo calendar display 3:
http://www.luxsoft.eu/luxcal/display3.php
When using a "display", when clicking an event the Event Report will open.

For those interested in JavaScript games:
We've added a new game "Mine Field to the Games page.
This is a new version of the very old Mine Sweeper game, produced in vanilla JavaScript. It can be run with your browser directly from your home computer or from a server. When ran from a server, there is a high-score list included. All details are in the download package.
Hi Lesm,
Edit the file 'index.php' in the calendar root and change line 243 from . . .
if (empty($_SESSION[$calID]['cD'])) { $_SESSION[$calID]['cD'] = $today; } //empty: today
to . . .
if (empty($_SESSION[$calID]['cD'])) { $_SESSION[$calID]['cD'] = '1842-06-15'; }
. . . to go to June 15, 1842 for example.
Note: If on the admin's Settings page, in the section User Accounts, "Restore last user selections has been checked, the The "next" default page will be the last selected page.
This is the "fixed" solution. Do you want the option to set the date on the admin's Settings page?
If so, I will do it for you, because explaining what to do is as much work as doing it 
Roel
Hi Les,
Have you considered the following:
You can add "?cD=1842-06-15" to the calendar URL. This will bring you to the date specified in ISO format. So in this case June 15, 1842
I can also send you a very simple PHP code change to set the default date to a fixed date in the past.
If you often need to change the default date within the span you specified in your post above, then maybe a date input field should be added to the admin's Settings page. This is a bit more work, but still not very much.
So please let me know what you need and then we will take it from there.

Hi Bill,
You found a bug in the time formatting of the calendar! Thank you for reporting this.
It's surprising, this bug has been there for many years and until today nobody complained. Apparently not many calendar users are interested in leading zeros.
The problem can be solved by editing the file "common/toolbox.php" and replacing line 59 . . .
$phpFormat = str_replace(array('H','h','m'),array(($ampm ? 'h' : 'H'),($ampm ? 'g' : 'G'),'i'),$format);
by . . .
$phpFormat = str_replace(array('h','H','m'),array(($ampm ? 'g' : 'G'),($ampm ? 'h' : 'H'),'i'),$format);
I will change this for the next calendar version.
