Hi there...this is a mod on a mod by Red1, by myself, which changes the way Red1 Calendar Mod works.

Instead of showing a static number of upcoming/recent events on cal_default.asp, it will display only those events which will take place in the upcoming period (for instance n days).

Next to that, it groups them by day in the overview of upcoming/recent events.

Changed files:
cal_default.asp
cal_functions.asp
cal_constants.asp

What did I do ?
Basically I took the sub WriteUpcomingEvents, and copied it into a new sub named WriteUpcomingEventsPeriod
The code below is the modded version; just copy it into cal_functions.asp, at the bottom, before the %>

'*****************************************************************
 Sub WriteUpcomingEventsPeriod
'*****************************************************************


strSql = "SELECT "
strSql = strSql & "T.TOPIC_ID, " & _
                  "T.T_SUBJECT, " & _
                  "T.T_MESSAGE, " & _
                  "T.FORUM_ID, " & _
                  "T.T_STATUS, " & _
                  "T.T_EVENT_DATE, " & _
                  "C.CAT_MODERATION, " & _
                  "F.F_MODERATION " & _
          "FROM " & strTablePrefix & "TOPICS T, " & _
                    strTablePrefix & "CATEGORY C, " & _
                    strTablePrefix & "FORUM F " & _
          "WHERE T.T_ISEVENT=1 " & _
          "AND   T_EVENT_DATE > '" & datetostr(DateValue(strForumTimeAdjust)) & "' " & _
          "AND   T_EVENT_DATE < '" & datetostr(DateValue(strForumTimeAdjust)+intUpcomingPeriod) & "' " & _
          "AND   F.FORUM_ID = T.FORUM_ID " & _
          "AND   C.CAT_ID = T.CAT_ID " & _
          "ORDER BY T.T_EVENT_DATE Asc"

set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
if strDBtype = "mysql" then rs.MaxRecords = intEventstoDisplay
rs.open StrSql, My_conn

If rs.EOF then
    Response.Write "<DIV class=""listitem"">" & strCalNoUpcoming & "</DIV>" & vbnewline
else do while not rs.eof
    Topic_ID = rs("TOPIC_ID")
    Topic_Subject = rs("T_SUBJECT")
    Forum_ID = rs("FORUM_ID")
    Topic_Status = rs("T_STATUS")
    Event_Date = StrToDate(rs("T_EVENT_DATE"))
    Cat_Moderation = rs("CAT_MODERATION")
    Forum_Moderation = rs("F_MODERATION")
	Topic_Message = rs("T_MESSAGE")

    if mLev = 4 then

    if strModeration > 0 and Cat_Moderation > 0 and Forum_Moderation > 0 and AdminAllowed = 0 then
            Moderation = "Y"
    else
            Moderation = "N"
    end if
    '*****************************************************************



    if forumAccess and not(Moderation = "Y" and Topic_Status > 1 and Topic_Author <> MemberID) then
    if Event_Date <> Previous_Event_Date then
        Response.Write  "<DIV class=""listitem"">" & Day(Event_Date) &  " " & MonthName(Month(Event_Date)) & " " & Year(Event_Date) & "<DIV>" & vbnewline
	end if
	Response.Write  "<DIV class=""indented""><SPAN class=""spnMessageText""><b>·</b> <A href=""topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=" & Topic_ID & """title=""" & ChkString(left(RemoveForumCode(RemoveHTML(Topic_Message)), 1000), "tooltip") & """>" & Topic_Subject & "</A></SPAN></DIV>"
    end if
	Previous_Event_Date = Event_Date
    rs.movenext
    loop
end if
rs.close
set rs = nothing
End Sub 'WriteUpcomingEventsPeriod


Ok, for defining the period, I have added a constant to cal_constants.asp:
Added this code at line 24:

'### Length in days of upcoming period ###
Const intUpcomingPeriod = 31


Ok, now the work is nearly done:
Change cal_default.asp, at the place the current sub is requested (line 119)
Added the bold parts:


Response.Write  "   <TD width=""33%"" bgcolor=""" & strForumCellColor & """ valign=""top"" class=""smallfont""><b>" & strCalUpcoming & "</b><br><small>within the next " & intUpcomingPeriod & " days</small><br /> " & vbNewLine
WriteUpcomingEventsPeriod


That's it!
The same could be done for the recent events, limiting it to a period of days to show recent events.

Just call for WriteUpcomingEventsPeriod instead of WriteUpcomingEvents where you want to use this code.

Hope this one is usefull to anyone. If anyone's interested, I could post the fully modded files here, which has these changes in all functions.

Hi marcelgoertz,

I think your MOD is useful. I would like to see it as a downloadable MOD. Thank you for the code! Might you have a demo site to see it in action?

Thanks again,

Etymon

Etymon, I will post the modded files as soon as possible (I can get my hands on the code when I get back to work on monday).
Unfortunately I don't have a demo site, as I use this code on our Intranet site at work.

That's fine on the demo site. Just was wanting to compare my results with how it's supposed to work and look.

No hurry on the MOD really. The Calendar MOD by Red1 is one of my favorite MODs, and I like the addon's people offer for it.

Thanks for sharing,

Etymon
