- Creates calendar displays of Views results.
- Create a new calendar by enabling or cloning the default calendar,
- changing the date argument to use the correct date field(s), and setting
- up the year, month, day, week, and block views with the desired styles
- and fields.
- If the Calendar iCal module is enabled, an iCal feed can be
- attached to the view.
- For a quick and easy start, install the Date Tools module, then use
- the Date Tools Wizard to create a content type with a date field
- and a calendar that displays that field, all in a single step!
- NOTES WHEN SWITCHING FROM 7.2 to 7.3
- The views created in the 7.2 version of Calendar won't work in 7.3
- because all the handlers have changed. If you are using the default
- view, you will need to revert it to pick up the changes.
- If you have calendars that were created by the Date Tools module, they are
- default views. Go to each one and revert them so they pick up the new code.
- If you are using custom (non-default) views it will probably be easier to
- delete them and just start over than to try to find all the places where the
- plugins and handlers need to be altered. Start with the new default
- calendar (after reverting it so any previous changes have been
- removed). Then clone it and make the following changes:
- - In the 'Fields' section, remove the node updated date and add your calendar date.
- - Click on each display (Year, Month, Day, Week, Block) and edit the contextual
- filter for the display. Uncheck the node updated date in the list of date fields
- and check instead the date you want to use in the calendar.
- - Click on the Upcoming display and edit the filter. Uncheck the node updated date
- and check instead the date you want to use in the calendar.
- - If you have the iCal module enabled, click on the iCal display. Edit the
- Row plugin settings and select the date field you want to use in the iCal feed.
- After you have made these changes, go to the Views Tools tab and clear the Views
- caches. Also go to admin/config/regional/settings, make sure the right
- first day of the week is selected, and resubmit that page even if you
- don't make any changes. That step is to fix a bug that might have set that date
- to the wrong value.
- After that your new views should work correctly and you can try out the
- new settings to make whatever additional changes you like.
