Use 3 minicalendars in a calendar view

Fri, 08 May 2009 20:05:12 +0100

The new module CALENDAR_NEW can be used like this

{wiki}{literal}
   {MODULE(module=calendar_new, viewmode=month, notitle=y) /}
   {MODULE(module=calendar_new, viewmode=month, month_delta=+1, notitle=y) /}
   {MODULE(module=calendar_new, viewmode=month, month_delta=+2, notitle=y) /}
{/literal}{/wiki}

Be carefull to put this at the end of tiki-calendar.tpl and to move this div up with absolute positionning (because otherwise your centtral calendar will be the last month not the first

Search failed on tw.org

Fri, 08 May 2009 19:57:23 +0100

I do not know why, but today the search fails on tikiwiki.org with an sql error.
The problem was that the fulltext index was split into to; ft with pageName and data and description with description. In order to be able to do a fullsearch on the 3 columns, you ned to have a fulltext index on these 3 columns.

drop index ft on tiki_pages;drop index description on tiki_pages;create fulltext index ft on tiki_pages (pageName,description,data);

A pdf file is download in the window and displays strange characters

Thu, 16 Oct 2008 11:54:56 +0100

Sometimes, the mime type of a file is not well set. For instance a pdf file that can be application/pdf (but also application/download or application/force-download or application/x-download or...) has been recognized by the server as text/html. Sorry I do not know yet why - but it happens. Such file will open directly in the browser. Change the mime type in the database and it will popup again

Why wikiplugin must return the string with np

Sun, 28 Sep 2008 21:21:42 +0100

If for instance you have a wikiplugin that returns a string 11:48PM, this will be interpreted as a link. So it is important to return the plugin data surrounded with ~np~ .... ~/np~ . This wiki tags tells tikiwiki not to do further parsing on the string.
