@PitaJ: Could you please look into https://github.com/pitaj/nodebb-plugin-calendar/issues/86

For me, this in not only a rendering issue. In my case the calendar is not working at all for repeating events. I can not select a date for response, due to this issue!

Thank you :)!

PitaJ

@archprateek don't worry, I saw that. I'll investigate soon.

@PitaJ: I have started to implement a listview widget for your calendar, but I am currently struggeling with https://github.com/pitaj/nodebb-plugin-calendar/issues/89

I am using your server side javascript in https://github.com/pitaj/nodebb-plugin-calendar/tree/1.0.x/src/lib to read the events, their repetitions, and responses from the database. But due to my timezone (UTC+2h) there is this -1 day offset in the database .

I believe I have isolated the root cause downto two calls to toISOString() as you can see in my comments to the issue. But you better have a look :-).

If you need details on what my widget is doing, you can check here:
https://github.com/gtfr/nodebb-widget-calendar-listview

BTW: Is there any description of the development setup for the calendar plugin? Just running npm install on a forked clone of the repository does not seem to work.

Many thanks for looking into this in advance!!!

@frgilb listview widget? Sounds interesting, like an upcoming events kind of thing?

Anyways yes I saw your investigation, looks right to me, thanks.

frgilb

@PitaJ Yes, this is the idea behind. You can select in the widget settings the scope: year, month, week. And it will show a table (inspired by the listview of FullCalendar) of events, with or without responses. I have to fine tune the layout of the table for mobile devices, but at the moment I am stuck because the responses for repeated events do not show up (due to my timezone). Soon I will announce it here . But first I need your help

I finally got my development setup for the calendar plugin working ! I tried to fix https://github.com/pitaj/nodebb-plugin-calendar/issues/89 along with some other minor stuff I came across.

@PitaJ: I created a pull request: https://github.com/pitaj/nodebb-plugin-calendar/pull/97

Please have a look at my changes!

frgilb

@PitaJ: Could you please review my pull request and merge to your calendar plugin (https://github.com/pitaj/nodebb-plugin-calendar/pull/97)?

Many thanks in advance!

@PitaJ: After v1.6.0 is released now, could you please have a look a this plugin again?

I would like to enable the calendar plugin on my (German) board and publish my listview widget for your calendar, but for both I need a fix for https://github.com/pitaj/nodebb-plugin-calendar/issues/89. If there is anything I can do to improve/adapt my pull request (https://github.com/pitaj/nodebb-plugin-calendar/pull/97), please let me know .

@pitaj Calendar is not showing on V1.6.0, the only thing that appear is Show only "Yes" on the top left of the screen.

PitaJ

Please provide any error messages both client and server side if there are any.

evoixmr

@pitaj I do not see any error message.

frgilb

I can confirm, that the calendar is not shown in v1.6.0!

In the nodebb log, no issue is seen. But my browser shows this:

It is also not possible to post a new event. In the post event case, I see no error at all. Neither in the nodebb logs nor in the browser.

PitaJ
