Calendar

New in Tiki9

New features added in Tiki9:

Calendar names are now translatable (but not individual events).
- This is useful if you have a calendar ID which has events in several languages. Ex. Training/Formation for CalendarID #4 and each event's info (ex.: name/description) can be in any language or you can make bilingual. The translation of the calendar name label is done like any other translation string in Tiki (lang/**/language.php or lang/**/custom.php or Interactive Translation.
New options have been added to set default new events to all day, and another option to put the name of the event on each day.

New in version 2 and version 3

General

There are several time/date & calendar-related features:

The Mini Calendar: MyTiki's personal calendar. A simple appointment list.
The Calendar: Tiki's main calendar. This can display:
- The Tools Calendars which report system-created lists of changes/additions, such as the creation or edit of a wiki page, upload of a file, including date and time, user, and description. This requires the permission tiki_p_view_tiki_calendar.
- The Event Calendars which show user created information such as events or appointments, and requires the permission tiki_p_view_calendar. Different calendars can be created, with distinct permissions for each. It is also possible to setup a Personal calendar here. This duplicates the mini-calendar feature but with integration with the other calendars (so you can see in one view both your personal events and the other events).
The feature jscalendar adds a nifty date picker to Event Calendars. (and trackers)
The modules calendar and calendar_new add a small calendar to a lateral column with events in hover boxes

Example

For the moment there is no possibility to include a calendar formated like tiki-calendar.php into a wiki page. To display a calendar in that format one must use a link

[domain/tiki-calendar.php?calIds=1|Display Calendar Nr 1]

To display multiple calendars use the following code

[domain/tiki-calendar.php?calIds~0=4&calIds~1=6|Display Calendar Nr 4 and Nr 6]

Example of usage in a wiki page through the plugin module and several modules inside.
