I added a fix for the wrong server time. Can someone pls test this before I re-upload it to snitzbitz
I updated the mod files and it is still displaying the incorrect date. My hosting server is on UK time and I'm on US Central time so I have set my forum time to -6.
Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner on this.<

Are the dates wrong on all the calendar pages or just on default.asp?<
Very sweet mod!! Installed it and beat it up pretty good today. Seems to be working well. I would like to second the request for a week view. I would like to use the calendar with a sports team, and it helps to see the week on a single page...
My other "wish" is for a button or link in the forum to add an event. You need to drill pretty far down into the calendar section to add a calendar item. Somewhat cumbersome to add more than a couple items at a time.
Thanks again for the great effort! And from the date/time stamps on these posts, get some rest! <
Red1, are you planning on having paging on the events list pages (past and future)? I can see on my forum where this would be a real benefit. I'll be using it mostly for posting genealogical information and people will use the list view to look back into history to research dates. I actually created a list view on the previous events mod and used that a little bit.
After a while as I post events in the past and as others post events, the list could get quite huge. That's my request for this mod. Great job, by the way!<
I've done a clean install of 3.4.03, and used ALL the files from the latest SnitzBitz download package, but am getting a few problems:-
Dates - When creating a new Topic/Event, the date is still coming up in US (mm/dd/yyyy) format in the date field, and not the format specified for my board (UK dd/mm/yyyy).
Editting Events - When I try to edit an event, I get the following error:-
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e21'
Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.
/forum/post.asp, line 356
Posting URLs in topics - If I try to include a URL in a topic, it's creating a link automatically, but still displaying the {URL=http://intranet/}testlink ignore{/URL} Forum Codes...

You need to specify your correct LCID in config.asp. Find this line: Session.LCID = 1033 Change it to 2057 for UK date

Hmm... I haven't done anything to post.asp that would generate this error. Are you using a DSN? Your connection could be wrong.

I think I've corrected this. I have a new version coming up in a while, I'm trying to fix as much as I can and incorporate everyone's suggestions. <
Okay Red here's what I've found. If I quote or edit the first topic in a thread the message (T_MESSAGE) is not retrieved and I have a blank Message Box.
If I don't add the following to end of line 341 of post.asp, but do everything else in post.asp then my quoting and editing works fine:

Cheers boss, that worked great (although I always get nervous changing something that specifically says DO NOT CHANGE next to it.... )

I don't THINK I'm using a DSN... do they hurt? I did a quick search and found out that DSN is Data Source Name, and from that I THINK I can tell you that we're using ODBC (forgive me if I'm now sounding dense... I'm reaching outside my sphere of comfort here), as we're using SQL Server (and I assume the ODBC is all but inevitable). If the DSN is SEPARATE to this information, please tell and I'll do some more rummaging.
I didn't (and couldn't at present) set it all up originally (we're on a corporate office intranet) and the people who did have the nous have all left as well, so I'm stuck maintaining something I don't fully understand, but am slowly getting my head around...
What I'm wondering is if it might be beneficial for me to establish an all new database to start off from, and see if the problem is caused by a previously installed MOD that's left some sort of legacyu crap in the current database. That would indicate that there might be a conflict with one of the few mods that I have installed... of course I might also be talking out of my arse...

Cool, if I can get over the editing problem (which is quite a biggy for me) then this will be the last problem I've found.
Cheers Red1... you're a bit of a star for dealing with all the queries and the wide range of technical ability you're dealing with here too...
