Hi, I like your calendar, I was trying use, but don’t work :’(

When I write: path/events/calendar , this appears:

Warning (512): Method CalendarHelper::calendar does not exist [CORE\cake\libs\view\helper.php, line 154]

I have this files:

controllers: events_controller.php
Models: event.php
helpers: calendar.php
views: calendar.ctp

Now, I believe that the problem is in calendar.ctp:
calendar($year, $month, $data, $base_url);
?>
I don’t understand why use $calendar as object?

You can help me? What is wrong and how could it right?

Thanks

I like your calendar and approach. However, it’s nice to have the numbers for the previous month that start on days before the first. So say June 1 starts on a wednesday. Monday and tuesday should have 29, 30 respectively and those days might have a different background color indicating there not part of the current month. On the other end, if June 30 ends on a Thursday, then Fri, Sat and Sun should have 1,2,3 in them.

My thought for the day.

@Mike. You are welcome and far to kind. Thanks for the notes. Haven’t used 1.3 yet.

Cheers

To make it work in CakePHP 1.3, you can replace this line:
$var = $this->Event->findAll(‘MONTH(Event.event_date) = ‘ . $month_num . ‘ AND YEAR(Event.event_date) = ‘ . $year, $fields, ‘Event.event_date ASC’);

With this:

$conditions = array(“AND” => array(
‘MONTH(Event.event_date) = ‘ . $month_num,
‘YEAR(Event.event_date) = ‘ . $year
));

$params = array(
‘conditions’ => $conditions,
‘fields’ => $fields
);

$var = $this->Event->find(‘all’, $params);

Thanks for making an awesome helper, and I apologize for the ugliness of my code.

Hi Chris

Sorry, I haven’t really done anything with Cake for over a year, so I’m a little out of touch. But (from memory) has findAll been depreceated in favour of something along the lines of $this->find(‘all’, array(‘conditions’ => $conditions)); ?

I know this is an old post, and I know this is mostly only compatible with cake V 1.2.

But I’m now using the latest version of Cake and findAll no longer works as it used to…

$var = $this->Event->findAll(‘MONTH(Event.event_date) = ‘ . $month_num . ‘ AND YEAR(Event.event_date) = ‘ . $year, $fields, ‘Event.event_date ASC’);

Do you have a solution to this?

@mark, @proloser

Thanks for your comments guys. Apologies for the appallingly long time it has taken me to respond.

What can I say… it is a very old post and the coed was a quick hack written as a rush job and then dumped into Cake 1.1

Maybe one day I’ll get to sort it out.
