EVENTS

I have taken a crack at fixing the event problems. They are related to the fact that the database as of 3.0.3 now has the dates stored as an integer timestamp (big number) and this combull script expects them to be stored as a MM-DD-YYYY date format. There is also an issue related to the fact that there are now start and end dates associated with each event, and a separate issue related to the possible existence of private calendars.

If someone wants to PM me with their email address I can send instructions on how to modify the script to print events. This will help debug it. If you can't use an editor to modify the script and test the results, please don't bother PM'ing at this point. This is for debugging purposes only. I will send you a piece of code that replaces the CALENDAR section of commbull.php. It is ugly because it has the existing lines commented out with corrections inserted. We'll test it then clean it up before publishing it.

BIRTHDAYS

Birthdays are more messed up. The storage order MDY changed around and the script also has a bug in it that would prevent it from working properly if the birthday window (30, 60 days) wrapped a year end. I got it printing the current month's birthdays, but with 3500+ users, there is basically no point for me in taking the birthday thing any further. I am not going to acknowledge 300+ birthdays in the monthly newsletter anyway.

I suspect that there is a way to reuse code from the forumhome to do that, I might look at it if I have the chance but I have a lot of important things pressing.

PLEASE CONTACT ME BY PM ONLY, so we don't clutter this thread until we have a solution. Include your EMAIL address if you want code to test.

Regards,

Matt
