This is listed as resolved, but with no details. Can a fix be expected on the next release?

Thanks,

I was using watermark and it worked a week ago. I just checked now and it’s no longer watermarked — it is simply the default text value.

Safari 5.1.3 and Chrome 16.

Marcus,

I am using the Events Calendar widget in the sidebar. I have Title set to “K1 Calendar”, “Show Long Events?” is not checked, and “Category IDs” is set to 1.

My earlier comment about not showing past events turns out to be false; the calendar is still highlighting old events (and even keeping the link). I apologize for the mixup. It is the Events widget that I have set to only show future events, and it correctly shows the current day, too.

So, the link and CSS highlighting on the calendar is appearing for past and future events, just not current ones (i.e., today).

Marcus,

What makes mine a custom calendar widget? The only thing custom about it is the hack I added, but that is to attempt to evade a problem — it doesn’t create one.

Perhaps I’m missing something, though.

What if you make it recurring?

Actually, I’m wrong. All the events so far have been standalone events; the recurring events start tomorrow. Tonight I’ll take out the CSS I added and see if the recurring events work correctly.

Are you saying it worked correctly as a standalone event but not recurring? Because my events that are not displaying correctly are all recurring events. Perhaps that’s the problem.

@marcus,

As Steve mentioned, it seems to be a problem beyond CSS; the actual link is not there.

I’m not sure what you mean in your first paragraph about calendars having scopes, so I’m afraid I can’t comment on that.

Thank you for your participation in this thread.

@steve,

Yup, that’s exactly the issue I am having.

goldstrikn,

My code doesn’t add the hyperlink back. All it does is correctly formats the text so that it appears to a viewer that there is an event today. Otherwise, a parent could look at the calendar in the morning and presume his child does not have school that day.

I’m not sure why the hyperlink disappears as soon as event date = today’s date, but I couldn’t find anything in the Event Manager settings.

Great! Thanks Marcus!

I didn’t do any heavy customization, but I do have the calendar set to only display future events. Thus, it does not show the 31st because it has passed.

I found the problem in the CSS file. Since the calendar is removing the hyperlink from today’s event (I don’t know why, but it is), there is no CSS code to define a date that is today, has an event, but has no hyperlink. So, in the events_manager.css file, I changed:

table.em-calendar td.eventful a, table.em-calendar td.eventful-today a {

to

table.em-calendar td.eventful a, table.em-calendar td.eventful-today a, table.em-calendar td.eventful-today {

It seems to get the job done. Hopefully this can be added into the software, because I know I’ll forget all about this when the next upgrade is released.

Thanks for helping me out, agelonwl.

angelonwl,

Thanks for replying. Do you mean my site works fine for you, or EM works fine on your site?

I’ll try your suggestions and report back. Using EM 4.15.
