Advent Calendar 2010

[Coroner]

Two years ago and xmas is knocking on the door (again).

Based on the 2008 advent-calendar, here comes the vB4 version.

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's necessary 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.

You can see the images here (advent calendar of 2008):

After installing, setting the Calendar online and set the usergroup permissions, you will find a new Link under "community"

Irgendetwas am Style stimmt nicht und die Breite.

Bei uns läuft es gut!

Edit:

Uhmm... O.o

Hab ich gelesen und verändert, passt trotzdem nicht zusammen. Oben wo Advent Kalender steht, haut schon nicht hin. Man müßte das über die 100% Schiene machen, damit sich der Kalender an die Browsergröße automatisch anpasst.

You should write your posts in english, otherwise they could be deleted by the mods here...

I customized the templates in every fixed style itself, so it works:

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" style="width:100%">
<tr>
<td align="center" style="width:100%">
<table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="1" border="0" style="width:800px">
<tr>
<td align="center" height="600px">
<iframe src="images/advent/advent.htm" name="advent" style="width:100%; overflow:auto" height="600px" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" frameborder="1"><span class="normalfont">Sorry, you browser doesn't support frames.</span></iframe>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center">
<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;-:[ <b>Advent Calendar</b> is copyright 2008 by <b><a href="http://www.php-unlimited.de">php-unlimited</a></b> ]:-&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
</td>
</tr>
</table>

To work with a 100% code won't work 'cause of the background image. You'll must have an image resizer to resize the background in the same width/length ratio.

Scheiße funzt ebenfalls nicht, Add-ons nicht zu gebrauchen.

[gruftiradio]

I use it and I love it.

Does this work only in 2010 or every december of every year?

[tomerl1]

Hello,

(Bei manchen Usern wird nicht ganzes Popup angezeigt)
Some users will not all pop-up display.

(Teile werden einfach abgeschnitten)
Parts are simply cut off

(Woran kann es liegen)
What are the reasons?

[Vikingant]

This is working fine...except day 8 isnt functioning :(

The calendar is pretty much hidden where it is so I created a new bbcode module for CMPS and simply entered this

[ url=http://mysite.com/adventcalendar.php][IMG ]http://mysite.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=863[ /IMG][ /url]

Its very basic but it works :D

[Baf_Jams]

Great mod bur how do you edit the links ?

[Vikingant]

In the ACP under Advent Canlendar there is a 'configure days' option. Click edit on whatever day you want to change.

[Baf_Jams]

With a little bit modification it's still running in 4.2.2 and in the year 2014 as well. :)

At the behest of the forum owner many thanks for that - and from me merry christmas, a happy new year and best regards from Germany,

Just tried this now and had the same issue mate :(

[Dragonsys]

The error you posted does not correspond to the code you posted.
Just create the DB Table(s) manually.

Chances are the table was not created due to this:
TYPE=MyISAM

[MrD]

Hi,
change TYPE=MyISAM to TYPE=InnoDB
