Many apologies. I just realized I did miss one <% control Times %>. Should be set now.

class MyCustomCalendar_Controller extends Calendar_Controller
{
public function FundRaisingEvents()
{
return parent::Events("Type = 'Fundraising');
}
}

Even if I remove or close " it always causes php error. Would be it possible to give a full sample of MyCustomCalendar.php ?

Thanks! Victor

That was just example code that was not to be taken literally. You need to actually create a custom calendar class with your custom fields. Please read the SS wiki entry "Recipes: Extending the Event Calendar." It starts with a basic customization, like you're trying to do, and then gets progressively more complex toward the end.

Already started to read.

Issues:

1) Repeating events: how to limit the repetition? End date seems to have no effect
2) Repeating events and ICS: it looks like it creates files for each instance of the repeating event rather than a single file.
It would be nice to have export of repeating event, of selected category, of everything
3) What about ICS import?

Thank you for your efforts. Victor

1) Repeating events: how to limit the repetition? End date seems to have no effect

==> Known bug. Not sure when I'll be able to fix it. Requires rewriting the recurring event logic.

2) Repeating events and ICS: it looks like it creates files for each instance of the repeating event rather than a single file.
It would be nice to have export of repeating event, of selected category, of everything

==> Another request that's been on the books for a while. The syntax for a recurring event is kind of complicated in ICS format, so this is a ways off, unfortunately.

3) What about ICS import?

==> Working on it as we speak!

I follow literally

http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=recipes:extending_the_event_calendar&s=recipes%20calendar

> We’ll add the following below the $_Content line:

There is $Content but not $_Content in Calendar.ss copied as WorkshopHolder.ss

Even if I change two instances of $Content to $_Content

Register now!

return empty.

Following "more" returns just white page with a single "Workshop".

Calendar works as supposed to, and yes, I have run /dev/build

$_Content doesn't exist anymore I should update that docuementation. You were correct to just use $Content.

If you just get a blank page that says "Workshop" it means you haven't created a Workshop_Controller class.

Hey I've tried looking up this error elsewhere but I couldn't find a way to fix it. Love the module by the way it's really great. Only thing is whenever I create an Event and try to access it via the Calendar (on the published site) I get this error.
