Hi all The time has come for me to implement a calendar into my wiki .... but i'm wondering what sort of options I've got. There's this nifty extension that would be really easy to get up and running http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Cdamian/calendar (demo here: http://krass.com/wiki/Sandbox/Calendar) ...as all it does it make all the day links for you so you can click and edit at will ........, simple, but would work But then there's the insanity of what Wikipedia has ........... dates and months and stuff all in there with events --- how do they do it? Some quick digging will lead you to find that their month grids http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/September are no more than a template, generated with the help of a bot (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:SeptemberCalendar2006Source) --- but can one be expected to sit down and manually enter all that stuff? I mean, all the events and stuff too? Are they using some extra db table I don't know about? I'm pretty much sold on using Cdamian's extension to get me going: pros: simple to add things to a day, since just standard blank articles cons:might be too simplistic for entries -- no time data etc....can't look up based on criteria And what about iCal format? I see this extension http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Sbrunner/SpecialICalendar.php but haven't a clue what exactly it will do (anyone running it?) -- or if adding entries in the iCal format will be too cryptic for my users Holy long post I know! Anyone with any suggestions or ideas -- please post -- Chris -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
