Calendar Search and Download for vB4


This mod addresses yet another basic feature missing from vB4 - calendar search and download :mad:


Features:

Replaces the Calendar menu item with a drop-down menu which adds a calendar search and export function. You can search in username, event title, description. custom fields, calendar and by year/month range. You can also export the search results (or the full calendar) as an iCalendar file (for import into a PC, mobile, Google, etc) or as a PDF text document.

Both export functions include email contact information for the event poster (provided that the current user has permission to view member groups and send emails AND the event poster allows email contact).

NEW! - v1.04b onward supports automated Google Calendar updates (view your vB calendar on Google alongside your other calendars!)

You can use the automatic indexing feature in Google Calendars to view your forum calendar (and sync it with your Nokia/iPhone/BlackberryAndroid/etc cell phone). Only calendars that have unregistered user access will be viewable (Unregistered Usergroup->can view calendars & ->view others events to yes).

To setup Google Calendars (http://www.google.com/calendars) to view your vB calendar(s) , select Other calendars->add->add by URL then enter http://your_forum_url/calsearch.php?do=gcal (replacing your_forum_url with your real forum URL!). Google can take many hours to actually index the vB calendar so be patient! If you want to start from a particular year - &startyear=20xx (it defaults to the current year).

Tested with Vbulletin 4.0.2 AND vBadvanced 4 beta. Product has no custom phrases or template/code edits. It uses two template hook locations in the navbar to change the calendar menu to a drop-down.


Settings:
None are needed - it does what it says on the tin :p.

AdminCP->vbulletin->options->message searching options->search results per page

Determines the number of event items displayed per page.


Installation

Unzip the download package and copy the contents of the UPLOAD folder into your forum folder.
Go to the VB AdminCP->Plugins & Products click "Manage Products". The click "Add/ImportProduct" at the bottom of the page.
Click "Browse" button and point to the product-calsearch-(etc).XML file included in this ZIP package.
Click "Import"... all done

This is looking good, Thanks! Although my links on the calendar search don't link to the event properly.

They seem to be linking to an event the day before the event.
http://www.claystation.com/forum/calendar.php?do=getinfo&day=2010-01-10&c=2

but it should be...
http://www.claystation.com/forum/calendar.php?do=getinfo&day=2010-01-11&c=2

Also I have a lot of calendars so on the search result page it would look a lot nicer if the results were displayed by calendar and date instead of just the date. Just a suggestion.

Thanks for your work.

Ive just installed this and it works great, so thank you

Ive been playing around with getting it to sync with Google Calendar which works fine if you download the iCal file and manually sync it with Google Calendar

Would it be possible to make this a Scheduled Task on the forum so that it ran say every day at midnight and saved the iCal output somewhere on the server? That way I could then point Google Calendar at the URL of the saved iCal file and see how it behaves, see if it auto updates when the iCal file is updated

This is working very well. The added field queries are very nice. How difficult would it be to able to search one just one calendar at a time with this? If I can do this it will solve a lot of problems for my site.

This mod is really interesting. I have some suggestions for further improvement and new features:
I don't really like the drop-down menu with the subitems "Calendar search" and "Calender". Can you make this drop-down menu optional with a setting? I think it would be more logical to add the search fields to the "calendar" page/template. You can there also make some export buttons (iCal/Gmail/PDF/...). Now you have to search for "nothing" to be able to export the whole calendar.

Thanks for this mod!

Thanks for the suggestions. The calendar selection drop-down only appears if you have more than one calendar.

The default (when you click calendar search on the navbar menu) is to list all calendar content - you can then immediately click the download buttons to get everything. You can, of course, select a calendar then search and download to get just one calendar content (or one event type, etc).

I would agree that this mod should be part of the vB search system (both in the advanced search page and in the calendar itself). However, the calendar templates are buggy at the moment so I won't be spending time working with them until they are fixed :rolleyes:

OK, I?ve had a chance to install this and I am well pleased with results so far, just a couple of things that would be an improvement if possible.

1 - by default the date range selected is 2008 - 2037; surely it should start with 2010, it?s only a small thing, but is there an easy way of changing it?

2 - the 'search for' button (or renamed 'search now') should be positioned at the end of all the options you need to complete/consider, i.e. after the date range, at the moment you work your way from left to right and when you get to the end you have to go back to the start to press search. Does that make sense? https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

3- and I agree with digibyte about making the drop-down menu optional, if possible.

I've put a link to the calendar search in my dropdown menu for 'What's On & Event Calendars' in my navbar, see here http://doctorwatson.info/calsearch.php, but what I could do with now is removing the vb search box from the navbar as this is going to cause confusion - can anyone point me in the right direction for doing that?

I?ll then add that search to the forum dropdown menu instead.

I've made some changes (v1.06b+) which address some of these issues. The start year defaults to the current year (the drop-down allows earlier years to be selected). The search options have been rearranged to make better use of page space. The calendar selection remains as there is no easy way to handle multiple calendars otherwise

You may find it easier (now a decent calendar search is available :)) to use calendar custom fields to categorise your event entries in a single calendar rather than having multiple calendars? That would get rid of the calendar selection drop-down!

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2011/01/19.gif Now that's what I call service, shame you're not running IB/Jelsoft at the moment. :D

The search options order seems so much more logical and layout cleaner, great improvement.

You may find it easier (now a decent calendar search is available :)) to use calendar custom fields to categorise your event entries in a single calendar rather than having multiple calendars? That would get rid of the calendar selection drop-down!

I?ll have a think about that, my first thoughts is it maybe not a great idea for my sort of site ? it would work if you knew what you were looking for, i.e. a search for ?Fred?s Flying Circus? brings up one result, and that?s happening 7-days a week for the period it?s listed for.

I did a search for ?Car Boot Sale? for 2009, on the basis the season hasn?t started properly yet this year, and it returns 50+, but recurring ones are only listed for the date range and not the day of the week. So, for example, it would be easier to view a calendar and see what particular ones were on for this Sunday.

Another example would be cinema listings; again if you just wanted to see what?s on this week, rather than a specific film, a search would list everything for the whole year, as you can?t search just for a weekend/week or month.

Just noticed a search for ?car boot sales? doesn?t return results for ?car boot sale?, which is actually how most of them are listed as they are singular events, but I can see people searching by the plural. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

Although, I guess, that?s where custom fields could work, not that I would have a clue how to put them in place, until I got hold of vb4.02 about four weeks ago my only ?web-build? experience was running a standard vb3 installation for a year, with no hacks nor mods installed even!

I am a right numpty, but learning fast, for some reason I thought upgrading and adding a few bells and whistles was going to be easy. http://79.170.40.233/doctorwatson.info/images/smilies/facepalm.gif

Attached is an updated version (now included in mod!) that handles recurring events by listing them (and their event dates) if they are occur within the selected year range. I haven't properly tested monthly recurring events as I can't work out how you set them in the calendar (the user interface is seriously deficient in that area :mad:).

Works OK here. The search works on event titles and content, not the calendar title (you can select the calender from the drop-down)

Nice one - that seems to work OK, even for monthly recurring events - I've tested it on a couple of business networking events and Chamber Chat (http://doctorwatson.info/calsearch.php?s=&page=%24page&cal=&infield=All&startyear=2010&endyear=2037&query=chamber+chat) comes up as 'Monthly....First Wednesday' and the First Friday Network (http://doctorwatson.info/calsearch.php?s=&page=%24page&cal=&infield=All&startyear=2010&endyear=2037&query=first+friday) comes up as monthly and, as you would expect, on the First Friday - lol.

I agree the user interface for adding events is crap, worst than on vb3, and is causing my users confusion hence I am either having to add events myself or moderate most users adding their own, so I can correct mistakes. :mad:

Actually, there’s a thought, the search returns a ‘contact’ on the right of results, which is the person that added the event but not necessary the organiser/contact for it, could that be made optional, or maybe replaced with the ‘to & from’ times?

Works OK here. The search works on event titles and content, not the calendar title (you can select the calender from the drop-down)

That's odd, because a search for car boot sales (http://doctorwatson.info/calsearch.php?s=&page=%24page&cal=&infield=All&startyear=2010&endyear=2037&query=car+boot+sales) (with the 's') brings up 3 results, 2 of which doesn't include the 's' in event title nor content, in fact one doesn't even use the words 'sale or sales'.

However, a search for car boot sale (http://doctorwatson.info/calsearch.php?s=&page=%24page&cal=&infield=All&startyear=2010&endyear=2037&query=car+boot+sale) returns 7 results and a search for just car boot (http://doctorwatson.info/calsearch.php?s=&page=%24page&cal=&infield=All&startyear=2010&endyear=2037&query=car+boot) brings up 8 results - be buggered if I can work out why. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

Similar problems searching for farmers' market (http://doctorwatson.info/calsearch.php?s=&page=%24page&cal=&infield=All&startyear=2010&endyear=2037&query=farmers%27+market) but worst because you can add an 's' or not to both the words and it doesn't return those with the apostrophe if you haven't included the apostrophe in the search, e.g. farmers market (http://doctorwatson.info/calsearch.php?s=&page=%24page&cal=&infield=All&startyear=2010&endyear=2037&query=farmers+market)

ETA - And even worst it shows me up for the misuse of the apostrophe when I've imputed some as 'Farmer's Market'. :o :D

All three entries contain "sales" (one has invisible text with the word in it :confused: - do a browser search on the event page and you will find it)

However, a search for car boot sale (http://doctorwatson.info/calsearch.php?s=&page=%24page&cal=&infield=All&startyear=2010&endyear=2037&query=car+boot+sale) returns 7 results and a search for just car boot (http://doctorwatson.info/calsearch.php?s=&page=%24page&cal=&infield=All&startyear=2010&endyear=2037&query=car+boot) brings up 8 results - be buggered if I can work out why. http://79.170.40.233/doctorwatson.info/images/smilies/hmm.gif"car boot" is in "car boot sales" so it will find both (it's a simple character string search , not a word list search).

Similar problems searching for farmers' market (http://doctorwatson.info/calsearch.php?s=&page=%24page&cal=&infield=All&startyear=2010&endyear=2037&query=farmers%27+market) but worst because you can add an 's' or not to both the words and it doesn't return those with the apostrophe if you haven't included the apostrophe in the search, e.g. farmers market (http://doctorwatson.info/calsearch.php?s=&page=%24page&cal=&infield=All&startyear=2010&endyear=2037&query=farmers+market)Are you expecting the search to know that you meant to add an apostrophe in the middle of the search phrase?

The product has been updated in the orginal post above to include the recurring event code. The iCal/Google export also now supports recurring events.

If the event poster has email disabled in their settings then they won't show in the PDF or iCal files.

I've also modified the code (download v1.07b again) to check the email sending permissions of the current user - if they are not allowed to send email then it won't appear in the files.

Thanks for the answer. But I'm using the mail sender inside vB because I do not want to publish user's email in the clear. The PDF does just that.

Even if users accept emails, on my forums they are sent emails by the internal module. Other users do not have access to their addresses (unless the person replies to the e-mail, but that's fine obviously).

Extracting text from a PDF is a torturous process - it's a fairly secure format. If you want to disable email addresses completely from PDF's then you will need to edit the PHP file calsearch.php

Around line 484 delete the red text:
$data[] = array(htmlspecialchars_uni(strip_bbcode(fetch_trim med_title(strip_quotes($event['title']), 100), false, true)) . ($recurint ? " ($period - $recurint )" : ''),
str_replace(array("\n","\r"), ' ' ,htmlspecialchars_uni(strip_bbcode(fetch_trimmed_t itle(strip_quotes($event['event']), 600), false, true))),
date($vbulletin->options['dateformat'],$event['dateline_from']) . ($event['dateline_to']=='' ? '' : ' - ' . date($vbulletin->options['dateformat'],$event['dateline_to'])),
(!empty($event['email'])) ? $event['email'] : ''
);


OR - if you want to disable PDF downloads altogether then, rather than edit the PHP file, edit the calsearch_result template and delete the red line:
<span style="float:right;">
{vb:rawphrase save}:&nbsp;
<input type="submit" class="button" align="right" name="do" value="i{vb:rawphrase calendar}" tabindex="7" />
<input type="submit" class="button" align="right" name="do" value="PDF {vb:rawphrase calendar}" tabindex="8" />
</span>

It works OK on upgrades but not on clean installs due to a change in the vB code - I've fixed the mod to work either way with v1.10.

The links you show point to two different iCal files - can you supply links to the same file?

The iCal files have c/ret in the correct places - replacing all spaces with c/r will corrupt the file format.

I'd don't use Google Calendar, but do have iCal files I'd love to set-up to 'auto-import' once a day would be great!

would it be possible to have a pdf output in a calendar format? This way someone could download the calendar view in PDF for printing without all of the other stuff form the website (such as the two small prev & next months, and banner, etc).

Also, after importing the ical to Outlook, the details are not full. Looks like there is a cut-off limit and then a ... is added to the end of that. Would it be possible to include the entire content of the event details?

Does this mod have any conflicts while working Farcaster Event Attendance Mod?

Just tested it on 4.0.5 w/the Farcaster Event mod (product-rah_calendar_rsvp_3_0_0b.xml)

Cal. Search & Download steps on FCEM, so that while you can set the option to RSVP, people cannot actually RSVP the event, as the option does not display.

It's a trade-off as to which one you want. Personally, I'm going with Search & Download as it seems like it would be more useful to people on my forum.

This mod doesn't change the way that calendar event are displayed- if the RSVP options aren't appearing then you need to check the Farcaster mod has been installed properly (disable the cal search mod and you will see that it makes no difference to the Farcaster mod)

Using the vb4 standard theme it works just fine in 4.0.5/6. It has no effect on the layout of any page other than the calendar search page) other than adding a simple menu item. If you are using a custom theme then check that the theme has the standard menu hooks in the template

If so, is there any similar mod, or will it be updated for that?

I am running this on 4.1.7 with no issues. I was wondering if it's possible to add a logo to the pdf as it renders? Would be neat to have our sites header or something similar on it.

If someone wants to make this work, I might be willing to throw some money into the pot for this mod. Of all the vBulletin bits, this one seems to be one of the biggest stumbling points.

Please PM if you are interested.

Works fine on the latest vB 4.2.5! To enable it to work on 4.2.5 you need to do the following:

1. Download "Calendar Search and Download_110.zip" . Unzip to your desktop.

2. In an HTML editor or notebook open the product-calsearch_110.xml file. (DO NOT USE MS WORD!!!)

3. Find:

<dependency dependencytype="vbulletin" minversion="4.0.2" maxversion="4.1" />

4. Change To:

<dependency dependencytype="vbulletin" minversion="4.0.2" maxversion="4.2.6" />

5. Save the file.

6. Follow the OP'S/DEV'S install instructions.

7. After you import the file you most likely may not be able to see a drop down in your calendar area. If this is the case then you can manually add a calendar link in your calendar template where you would like to place it. I have a box that I coded at the top of my calendar and this is where I added my search link for the calendar areas. Just be sure that where ever you add your link that you use the url with calsearch.php on the end of it.

EXAMPLE:

<a href="http://yoursite.com/calsearch.php">Calendar Search</a>

Change "yoursite.com" to your actual URL.

If you need help placing it in your templates post back here and I'll help if I can.
