View Full Version : Mini Mods - Advent Calendar 2008


Coroner

What is it ?
It's a simply Advent Calendar. I've filled it with images,music and videos (youtube or myvideo).
Each day (there are only 24 :) ) can have an image url or data (data like: <object ....).

How does it works ?
Like an advent calendar. I've created an simply template with an iframe in it. In this frame you will see a background-picture, doors (is the word correct ?) (calendar days) and - if you set it to on - snowflakes.
This calendar can only use on december and a day will only open if it's the correct day or an earlier day.
Example: it's 7th of december, so you can open all day include the 7th.
Each day will give a popup window (you can change the size for each day).
If you try to open a calendar day on a later date it will give you an error (confirm script) - this can also, when a day is "empty".
Empty means:
You have entered an image-url but selected "data" (in admincp) or you selected "image" but the image-url is empty.
After install all 24 days are filled will "funny movies", "pictures", "flash" or "music". You can change everything you like.

There are a few settings (is online, snowflakes on/of and count of snowflakes).
Also there are only 2 permissions:
- the permission to use the calendar
- the permission to test the calendar

If you set a usergroup to test the calendar, the users can see and click all the days of the calendar - that needed for testing !

Some technical
The iframe-size is set to 1024x768 and can changed in the template adventcalendar.
All images, javascript and the background html lies in: images/advent.
If you wanna change the backgound-image, change "images/advent/wallpaper.jpg".
The snowflake image can also changed (images/advent/snowflake.gif)

Installation
There is NO installation READ.ME !
Simply upload all files and import the product.
The product creates a plugin that used $template_hook[navbar_buttons_left] for the navbar.

P.S. deutschen Support gibt es auch bei your-vb

Set the userrights (enable: can test calendar). If so, check your template (navbar), maybe there's the template_hook missing.

My wife got also an javascript error (IE7).
You can try the following:

open advent.htm
and search for "window.open(....)"

in this line you will see: "Advent Day: " + id, ...
cange this into: "AdventDay", ...

So, the question is. Which error and in which line.
you can see the error by clicking the little small icon (bottom left in your browser). The template is always: advent.htm

@hobsdv AND @mikey1991
Have you take a look in the AdminCP ? you can change each day individually and also you can give each popup another size.

Excuse me, I am writing German now.

Zeile: 38
Zeichen: 4
Fehler: Ung?ltiges Argument
Code: 0
../../../../advent.htm

Zeile 38:
window.open("./../../adventcalendar.php?do=open&securitytoken=" + parent.SECURITYTOKEN + "&day=" + id, "AdventDay: " + id,"width=" + pw + ",height=" + ph + ",left=5,top=5,location=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,scr ollbars=0,status=0,toolbar=0");

Coroner
11-03-2008, 05:27 PM
Ok, see your post:
&day=" + id, "AdventDay: " + id,"width=" + p

change into:
&day=" + id, "AdventDay","width=" + p

Maybe this will help. I think the "spacer" in the title is the mistake.

You can get german Support at your-vb.com if you like.

It is working thank you now.

The correct line 38:

window.open("./../../adventcalendar.php?do=open&securitytoken=" + parent.SECURITYTOKEN + "&day=" + id, "AdventDay","width=" + pw + ",height=" + ph + ",left=5,top=5,location=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,scr ollbars=0,status=0,toolbar=0");

Coroner, your fix on Page One does work.

My line in complete now reads:

window.open("./../../adventcalendar.php?do=open&securitytoken=" + parent.SECURITYTOKEN + "&day=" + id, "AdventDay", + id,"width=" + pw + ",height=" + ph + ",left=5,top=5,location=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,scr ollbars=0,status=0,toolbar=0");

It is line 75 on my advent.htm - It's probably around 38 on everyone elses though, Dreamweaver seems to have added an immense load of empty lines in my file. Grrr

Thanks very much :)

A little bit of code of the template navbar:

$template_hook[navbar_buttons_left]

OK It's showing now, but with - at least I think - Java-related error. It breaks my fixed forum and keeps popping up and down in size - putting scrollbars on and off very fast?

Coroner
11-06-2008, 12:24 PM
Take a look in adventsnow.js
find this line:
if (yp[i] > doc_height)
and change it into:
if (yp[i] > doc_height - 30)

doc_height is the end of the frame so, you have to test it out, if 30 is ok or maybe better 35 ...

1) I can't find where to set permissions??

2) I have no link on the nav bar. I've read all the other posts about this, but cannot find the solution. I am familiar with how to add links to the nav bar, but cannot figure this one out. Sorry. Would appreciate any help. Thanks.

From post #8: Set the userrights (enable: can test calendar). If so, check your template (navbar), maybe there's the template_hook missing.

Where do I find "Set the userrights" ?

What is the template_hook code? And does it go in advent_calendar template or navbar? I would assume navbar, but lost on this. Thanks.

Also: these two files are found in the "images" folder so that is where they now reside on my server "images/advent": advent.htm and adventsnow.jg. But those are not image files. Should they really be in the images folder?

Sory for so many questions, but I need help. :) Thanks.

1.) Usergroups
2.) The link only appears (in the Navbar) if one of those permissions is set to YES
The "test advent calendar" is for testing (the link will shown in the navbar directly)
"use the advent calendar": the Link is only avaible in december

template_hook: It's a hook inside a template (you can use it to insert html inside a template without modification)

Yes, you really need to upload both files (see my strucure)

Thanks very much the answers and support. I've got a link after giving test permission. Calendar opens, but when I click on the numbers, I get an error message and no pop up window. It just says, "Error on page" I corrected my line 38 in Dreamweaver like in post #22, but it still has error. Any ideas? Thanks.

EDIT: It's working now. I had to clear my cache. Thanks so much!! This looks like it will be fun!!!

Any suggestions, presumably we can change page size in settings, as 1024 is too big for our forum style.

You can add Dec. 25 yourself. I did. Just add another day in the advent.htm and then define it in the product xml file. Create a .png image for the 25th and insert it into the place where you want it in the advent.htm file. BUT - it won't show up unless you uninstall the product and then install it again.

It doesn't work though. Your day 2 was an image, not a web page. It came from a web page, but it was an image file. If you put a web page in there, it does not open correctly. It needs another selector other than Image or Data.

Thank you for your support on this. We love the product... just need to be able to have the day open a web page.

There is no change to open a Web-page (without changing the php).

What I do is simply. Reading the informations coming from the database and place it into the template.

Hi TimberFloorAu,

I had to fix the advent.htm.

But how do I get a button into my navbar so everyone can see my calendar ?

Take a look at the 1st post (modification) under installation.
See "template_hook" ? That's what you need

Ok. Thanks for responding. I'm just learning how to code, so I don't know if I can do it but I'll give it a try. I was able to add a day 25, but this sounds more challenging. :)

Again, thanks for such a great product. Have a blessed Christmas!

Thanks - works now even for IE-Users.

But anyway - i hate fixing something for IE-Users. :rolleyes::D

Sorry, I went there but didn't see anything like this mod. In the calendar, I clicked and got member profile pages.

Now, this mod, is it like when in easter for ex. someone clicks the date, he gets the easter bunny? On Christmas, he will get a Christmas tree? I really don't understand it?

Only a few days left until 1st December. I tried to use this version of the calendar, but when i activate it, i can open all the calendar doors. Is it only because i am the admin? When I log in as a user and set the rights that a user can see but not test the calendar, the calendar is currently not visible. Will it be visible on 1st December?

This should work on 3.8 versions.
I run it on a 3.8 and works.

Tolden - I think that is because of the month setting. It shouldn't do that in the month of December. Or it could be as you are an admin. Try making a regular user test account and trying it then.

I liked the mod. However, I tested it before putting it live. You can easily go around the dates by modifying your computer's day / time; and my users are quite computer friendly; sadly.
Although its nothing biggie if you plan to show your users funny links and such, but I planned to used the mod to give tips and hints for a big puzzle, with a forum prize to whoever gets the answer first.
In the end, I opted for a text-based advent :(
Thanks though!

Works fine for 95%.

Only Problem i see is, that the falling snowflakes always pop up the scrollbar on the right side.
I change to other gif without animation, but still the same problem. same with bigger/smaller wallpaper.

All other works fine! Thanks.

Is there any way to enable snowflakes wirthout popup the scrollbar if the flakes fall to the end of the wallpaper?

Thank you very much for your Help! PLEASE! (Version 3.82)

EDIT: I checked - This problem is only by using Firefox

Hello again,

Should this still work for December 2011, because some users can see the entire calendar already?

Hello,

I installed it and it re-filled it, everything works fine and my users are all very happy.

Some have the IE Problem, I will try later on to use the solution you showed here.

But some have a new Problem: They have I-Pads. On the Ipad the Calender is opening, also the doors can be opend. After the open door I have pdf files. Also these files can be seen. But they can not be scrolled, because they are not opend as pdf files.

Have you an solution for this?

I found an interrims Solution, I only changed the size from 800 x 600 to 800 x 80000 so the side is long enough to be scrolled ;-))

I suspect that if you are really still on the old version of VB like I am, that there will not be any modifications to this add-on to make it mobile friendly. I think the people who are supported versions have better luck.

I will be trying to get up to version 5 soon.

Hope maybe you figure something out

Oh, that is cool.

I never thought of putting a pdf. If you want to share your linke with me, I will love to come see what you have done, since I think we are the only two still using this, haha :D

www.pfotenmania.de/forum :D

I made Word Files, because Users sent me Photos, Stories and and, than I changed them into PDF. After that I used the code from the You Tube and changed the URL to my Advent Adress.

I will be trying to get up to version 5 soon.

I was not sure if this will work with an older version.
