My problem is, when I only set the radiobutton "user can see calendar" it is not shown in the navbar.
The link in the navbar appears only when I set the radiobutton "user can test calendar" too.
But in this case the user can open all doors ...

I corrected the source code as shown in the questions above.
Can you help me please?

Thank you

Brady

simply install the product (english or german). If you have more than one language you can use the language xml for the second one (if it's german or english)

Would be cool if it was more compatible with other holidays such as Hannukah and Kwanza, regardless of whether they have advent calendars or not.

Coroner

The Problem is Opera. It ignores the style vars

<div style="position: absolute; top: 20%; left: 5% ...

If you change it into fixed pixel (top: 50px; left 20px) it will works correctly

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.

It's the product you use when you install the mod.

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:

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)

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

Installed and testing great. This is going to be very very popular.

What I'd like to know is how this works for the users? Do they only have access on the 1st of december to day 1, or must we add the code daily?

Coroner

11-13-2008 05:13 PM

Normaly it's viewing on december.
you can test this (I haven't !)

adventcalendar.php
search for:

Quote:

if (!$is_online OR date('n', TIMENOW) != 12 OR !$can_use_adv) print_no_permission ();

and change into:

Quote:

if (!$is_online OR !$can_use_adv) print_no_permission ();

You need to find the correct sizes for each calendar day

Hi,

I want to make it so that each link loads a webpage. What code do I need to use to be able to do this?

Also, I saw you have to edit the product to change the link in the navbar, how do I do this as I cant find it.

Help is greatly appreciated,

VS

1. good mod.
2. have set permissions for admin to test and use in usergroups
3. still have a blank page when we click settings.

Not sure why...

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

I installed this and it seems backwards to me, you can open every door on day one. Is it meant to be like that? If so is it possible to change it so you can't open, say, day 3 until day 3, day 15 until day 15 etc?

Coroner

12-01-2008 07:25 AM

On Day1 you can open day 1, on day 2 you can open day1 & 2. And so on ...
Will take a lot at this later when I'm at home.

Hello,

I installed everything. But I can?t find the calendar on my forum http://www.forum-spielmannszug.de .

What is going wrong ?

What do you mean with "Simply upload all files and import the product." ?

I have no idea.

Heiko

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. Here's mine:

Coroner

12-02-2008 03:17 AM

You have to change the database: adventcalendar_days

each day has an entry (swf, ...)

an example is day 2 - it will open a webpage

All times are GMT. The time now is 01:57 AM.
