Hello!

What ?

what i would like to be able to do…

Is set up an entirely wikidot calendar of events. ie… no embeding other stuff

I have been able to manage a rather poor system, which can be seen in action at
http://psc.wikicomplete.info/
and
http://i-band.wikidot.com/gigs:calfront

there are a number of things that i would like to improve…

Only trouble is… My head has come to a grinding halt.
One thing i knoe for sure is that someone in wikidot land will come up with an idea. then someone else will improve on it, then someone else will come along with a brian wave and say "do it this way, dip stick"

Well I'm a dip stick…… and look forward to any and all suggestions.

Welcome to the think tank :-)

Been messing and come up with a far more intelligent method of generating the calendar.
The sun i shinning and the good woman has told me that i am going to the beach to soak up some sun instead of playing wikidot. So i will have to wait till later to play will it. Rats

Good stuff james. I am really impressed with what i have seen so far.

Latest update.
meagainmeagain 1251189138|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover

The calendar now appears to be fully functional. :-)))
YAY!!!

James has come up with a very clever way of generating the actual calendar,
it now will generate the pages in such a fashion that list pages will list the entries in the correct order, no matter what order they entered.
there is just one minor irritation, and that is that the link colouring in the calendar appears to be a bit slow to up date. IMHO this is very minor.

experiments are now taking place in various formatting of listing the events, and the page layout as well.

Please feel free to have a go and experiment your self.

the more brain power employed the better it will be.

Question: on gerdamis 50' (2011-08-01) are 2 responses ...
Helmuti_pdorfHelmuti_pdorf 1252480337|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover

Why does the ListPage only show ONE response ?
It has defint. 2 children!

Is it a home advantage from Phil?

Another Question: shold "rsvp" get autonumbering?

Edit : It needs an "Update" of this page to render correct - this has perhaps to do with the "live template glitches" ?

Perhaps you forgot to reload your page? It does show two responses.

Another Question: shold "rsvp" get autonumbering?

Yes, absolutely it should. If two people make the same RSVP page name, they'll be given an error message. That is, if somebody responds “yes” to one event, and another person responds “yes” to another event, the second person will be disallowed to do that. Autonumbering the RSVP category solves this problem.
