It would be REALLY nice if I could find a way to have it exclude some calendar items that have a specific string of text in the title. I just don't know where to put the hook to make this happen. Any suggestions appreciated! THANK YOU

example: If a calendar event has "BOARD MEETING" anywhere in the TITLE, it gets overlooked/ignored by this code. It displays everything else, but these events.

Here is my (current/modified from above) code:


Thanks in advance if anyone has the time to look at this and give some advice.

Much appreciated! :up:

PHP Code:

ob_start();  

//  %d  
$show_count = 9;  

$query = sprintf("SELECT * FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."event WHERE visible = 1 AND (dateline_from > '%d' || (  dateline_from < '%d' AND dateline_to > '%d' )) ORDER BY dateline_from ASC LIMIT %d",TIMENOW,TIMENOW,TIMENOW,$show_count);   

$event_get = vB::$db->query_read($query);  

$output_bits = '';  
while($event = vB::$db->fetch_array($event_get))
{  

    if(!strpos($event['title'], "BOARD MEETING")) // do not show event
    {
    
        if($event['dateline_to'] == 0 )  
        {  
            $format = sprintf(" ");  
    
            //changed code 2/6/13  adds a day  to fix issue, and reformat for USA m/d/y 
            $format = sprintf("On %s", vbdate('M jS, Y',$event['dateline_from']+86400), vbdate('g:i A', $event['dateline_from'])); 
        
        }
        else
        {  
            $format = sprintf("From %s to %s",vbdate('M jS',$event['dateline_from']),vbdate('M jS Y',$event['dateline_to'])); 
        }  
           
        $output_bits .= sprintf('  
          <div class = "cms_widget_post_bit"><center><a href="calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=%d"><h4 class="cms_widget_post_header"><font size="2">%s</font></a></h4>  
                <p class="cms_widget_post_content"><font size="1">%s </font></p><p><font size="1">&nbsp;</font></p></center>  
            </div>  
            ',$event['eventid'],$event['title'],$format);  
            
    }

}
 
$output = $output_bits;  

ob_end_clean();  
return $output; 


i have added a simple check if(!strpos($event['title'], "BOARD MEETING")) which says if the title does not contain BOARD MEETING. if it does have BOARD MEETING it skips the event and moves to the next one.

i havnt tested it but it should work.
