Mini Calendar
What it does:
The Mini Calendar is just what it's name says. It allows you to add a small calendar to any or all vBulletin page(s). It links back to the month, next and previous month as well as any days with an event.
Is it complicated?
Installation is easy. Just include the cal.php file on any page that you want it shown, make one new template and insert $smallcalendar at the exact place you want it shown. Look at the instructions below.
Changes: New files (1):
cal.php
Changed files(0-1):
depending on where it should be shown
New database fields/tables(0):
none
New templates(1):
small_calendar
Changed templates(1-2):
wherever mini calendar should be shown
(phpinclude_start, if shown on all pages)
Upload cal.php (attachment) to your forum home directory
Make a new template with the name small_calendar and insert the contents of template.txt (attachment) into it
Decide if you want to have your mini calendar on specific pages or on all your pages
If you decide to have the mini calendar on all your pages (for example in a sidebar) edit your phpinclude_start template and add
PHP Code:
include ("cal.php");
to the end of it.
If you only want the mini calendar on specific pages, open the php file that makes that page and under
PHP Code:
require_once('./global.php');
add
PHP Code:
include ("cal.php");
edit the template that shows the area in which you want to insert your mini calendar and add $smallcalendar to the exact spot where your mini calendar should be shown.

Is it possible to port this to a page outside of vB? For example, I have my main index at http://www.milwaukeenights.com/index.php and my forums are located in a sub domain at http://forums.milwaukeenights.com . I want to show the mini calendar on my index page outside of vB but some reason I am just getting a blank spot where the calendar should. Not even a db error message or anything, just an empty spot....
Hello Colin.... I have changed the size to 160 pixels and removed all of the padding... how can I fix the top to be on one line, my month looks like this
You'll have to use a smaller font size, as that's the problem. Having it on one line will just stretch the table, making it bigger than those 160 pixels you wanted.
