Forum:New calendar feature

Introduction
A new calendar feature developed by Wikia has recently been installed.

You can activate it on your wiki by typing on any page.

When you've saved the page, you'll see an "add an event" link which takes you to a form to create the event, which will be saved as a page on your wiki and will appear in the calendar.

See Help:Calendar for more information (new info added on how to have more than one calendar per wiki)

Fatal error: Call to a member function getPrefixedURL on a non-object in /usr/wikia/source/wiki16svn/extensions/SpecialAddEvent.php on line 102 --Dob 19:07, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I got the following error, when i try save a new event:

I attempt to add an item the scratchpad calender for 2008/01/01 title "Sleep" with the contents "See title" and I get an error message of There is already an article with that title. Try another. I get the error as Anon user and having logged in. MatthewS 19:09, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Matthew: The name of your event becomes the name of a wiki page (on which you can describe the event). You must already have a page called Sleep. If I read the description above more carefully I can see it's right there, but this was not obvious to me at first either, when I created my first event. Angela: I like this feature! And the introduction was very timely. I was just looking at a submission for the Solar Cooking Wiki that contained a course announcement. --Beth Ogilvie 19:31, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Great with new features, y'know. – Smiddle 19:54, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

I like it a lot. See how I've integrated it with what we already had on Fishery Management: - http://fisherymanagement.wikia.com/wiki/Current_events. Scope for better uses yet, I'm sure. Robin Patterson 01:13, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

It would be nice that sysops could change and translate the text that appears in the calendar and all other related messages, including the name of the category "Events", like other extensions editing Special:Allmessages (captcha, cite and wikiasearch implement their own messages) --Ciencia Al Poder ¿Algo que decir? 19:37, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
 * PD: changing the category of the calendar will avoid changes like these :-) --Ciencia Al Poder ¿Algo que decir? 19:48, 23 January 2007 (UTC)


 * You can edit the interface messages for this feature. The messages aren't showing up in Special:Allmessages yet, but they can be edited. I've added the list of pages you need to edit at Help:Calendar. Angela talk 22:07, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
