new event is saved but not displayed

[AlanHumphrey]

Added a new event and can see it in the database. however it does not appear on any calendar (latest, month, etc.)

[Geraint]

Did you add it in the frontend or backend?

Is it published?

I have the same problem.

I created a "New iCal Event" from the backend, assigned it to a previously created category, then published it. Regardless of the date I set the event for it displays "Published, but is Coming" and does not display in the calendar (front end).

Cheers,

Ray

problem resolved by going to "manage ical subscriptions" in the backend and creating a calendar. I also had to adjust the event so it would be updated in the database. Once those two things were done the event showed up.

Thanks, Alan. That worked or me, too.

I'm curious, though. Never used JEvents or it's predecessor before. It seems needlessly complicated. Is this the way the workflow has always been?

1.5 alpha 3 is only an alpha with limited documenation.

In practice we'll probably create a native iCal ics file on installation and most users can then just igonre this feature.

The reason we have ics files and categories is to allow for calendar imports as well as native calendars.

Just changed the code in SVN so that we have:

• A single default native ICS file
• We create such an ICS file automatically
• We use this default ICS file for data migration

On the same lines I have a test user authorised to add events as an author from the front end, but not to publish them. However when I log in as a super administrator I am unable to authorise this event. I just get a 403 error - You are not authorised to view this resource.

I set error reporting to the maximum and could see no other errors.

Although I do have a
Notice: Undefined variable: editmode in D:\xampp\htdocs\Test\templates\allediabolt\index.php on line 24 error on the calendar which I am assuming is something to do with the template with this version of jevents, which may or may not be related.

Joomla 1.5.9
PHP 5.2.8
Jevents 1.5Alpha3

Can you explain exactly what you were doing when the 403 error arises - i.e. what are you clicking, in what contest, what URL etc.?

Sure.

I was in the backend looking at http://localhost/test/administrator/ind ... event.list

I had created an event as an author which was called test, and I was trying to publish it.

I then clicked the publish icon which came up with the error. I also got the same error when I looked at the event. Both pointed to this url: http://localhost/test/administrator/index.php

Hope that helps?
