iCal export from jEvents

[tac12]

Hmm... newest version shouldn't print lines with FREQ=none, because all are inside one if-clause.

Code: Select all

if(($a->freq != "" && $a->freq != "none")) {echo 'RRULE:';

little strange now...

OK let me make sure I have that line!

Oopps I must have been looking at the wrong file! Google Calendar, iCAL, iPhone all work! Terrific work, thanks for a great addition that makes JEvents the best!!

This is fantastic work and I've been able to install and get it up and running immediately. Well done!

I've come across something strange though: on my test server I was able to adjust view.html.php to allow me to install this for different views.

For example, to use ext I simply changed line 21 from

Code: Select all

class DefaultIcal extends JEventsDefaultView

to

Code: Select all

class ExtIcal extends JEventsExtView

However on my proper server this throws up: Fatal error: Class 'JEventsExtView' not found in view.html.php.

It works fine if I change to

Code: Select all

class ExtIcal extends JEventsDefaultView

Strange... Any ideas?

Thanks again for the hard work.

[quote="hifi"]Hi,

I made some coding, and were able to (at least in my environment ) get ical export from jEvents to work.

Codes:
http://hifi2.pp.fi/temp/jevents_ical.zip

Some instructions:

ZIP-file should be decompressed in components/com_jevents -directory (puts files to right place)

GUI can be accessed through address "index.php?option=com_jevents&task=ical.ical" (there's translations missing, just placeholders added).

My friend. I must be doing something wrong. I did the steps above except for the GUI which I have no idea what it is. I wonder if, after I unzipped the files in the default dir, I should see some export button in the calendar page. I see nothing, I have no way to export anything. What am I doing wrong?

Best regards,

Ok, my friends.

It took me 2 days to figure out that GUI stuff was my homepage address plus the jevents direction, like this:
http://www.myhomepage/index.php?option= ... =ical.ical

However, it brings up a very dangerous breach of security, since anyone who knows this address can reach the export page and have access to every item of the agenda, bypassing the login page.

But it worked fine. I was able to export the whole thing snap and import it into my google agenda without any fuzz. It would be nice, also, if it were possible to import events from google agenda into jevents.

The work is great. I just have to disabled the routine to avoid intrusion. When I need to export the agenda, I go back to filezilla and enable the routine again.

Best regards to all

it were possible to import events from google agenda into jevents.

Do you mean google calendar? This is already a core feature of JEvents - just export your Google calendar as an ical and import the URL into JEvents

Actually there is a logic, that it's giving only the public events. Not the best solution, but was the easiest one.

I've solved my issue using the ext view if anyone is interested - it's a dirty hack but it works.

I've declared the ext abstract.php in the ical view.html.php:

Code: Select all

include_once(JEV_PATH."views/ext/abstract/abstract.php");

As said in first message...

EDIT: And template/view/theme is for default ONLY

Copy that view to alternate template to make it work
