Re: Tiki Calendar issues/needs

> -12 hr time needs to be easily chooseable as default for start and end times. Right now to change these you have to modify the calendar-add-event template and Calendar templates. Rick S says "Even better... make the calendar respect the time/date preferences, as specified on the Admin page. There is no reason (I can think of) why not." This should be true everywhere in Tiki.(Maybe this is fixed in 1.10?)

Same as above. If I've already set my time/date preference once, it should be respected everywhere. Looks like you've already logged this.

Of course, you then need to increase the truncation, so users can actually read the event." (I think it's OK for me that they just click it to get more info.) Another solution might be to have some way to set a dwell time before the pop up comes up. The problem is that, as you move your cursor to an event to read it, it pops up every other event you pass over.

I think you simply need to turn on the Group calendar sticky popup. This will "stick" the the popup visible. See the docs.

> -Default status for add event should be "confirmed" not "tentative". This can also be changed in the template files. The two that matter are tiki-calendar.tpl and tiki-calendar_add_event.tpl. Poking around in these, you can change many things. I was able to add instructions so my users could work around some of these issues.

Why not let admin also create new status types, in addition to selecting a default? I added this as an enhancement request.

There are no comments at this time.
