Package: p4a.plonecalendar
Overviewp4a.plonecalendar provides nice calendaring views for Plone, specifically
a Month, Week and Day view, and also nice lists of past and previous
events.There are today better calendaring views for Plone, specifcally solgema.fullcalendar.
However, that’s a JavaScript calendar, so if you need a calendar that you can use
without JavaScript, for example for accessibility reasons, then p4a.plonecalendar
is a good choice.Upgrading from version 2.0p4a.plonecalendar 2.1 removes the dependency on p4a.subtyper. As a result
upgrading to p4a.plonecalendar can be a bit of work.Step 1:Firstly you need to add p4a.subtyper to your buildout.cfg.Under [instance] add “4a.subtyper” to the eggs property, remove
p4a.plonecalendars zcml entries and replace them with p4a.subtypers zcml
entries. The result should look something like this:[instance]
…eggs =Plone
p4a.plonecalendar
p4a.subtyper
${buildout:eggs}zcml =p4a.subtyper
p4a.subtyper-metaRun buildout and restart the server.Step 2:Go to the ZMI and open the Upgrades tab of portal_setup:http://yourplonesite/portal_setup/manage_upgradesChoose the p4a.plonecalendar:default profile, and the upgrade named
“Upgrade to 2.1: Remove all marker interfaces” should be visible.
Select it and press “Upgrade.”Step 3:Then go to the quickinstaller:http://yourplonesite/portal_quickinstaller/manage_installProductsFormHere, reinstall P4A Plone Calendar. You will after this have to go to all
calendars and select a Calendar View as default view again.Step 4 (optional):If you have no other parts of Plone4Artists installed you can also uninstall
Plone4Artists Subtyper, and remove it from the buildout.cfg.InstallationAdd p4a.plonecalendar as a dependency either to your buildout:[buildout]
eggs = p4a.plonecalendarInclude p4a.plonecalendar ZCML:[instance]
zcml = p4a.plonecalendarNotesImporting an iCalendar file via httpPlone4Artists calendar can import an iCalendar file over http into a Plone
calendar. This is useful for example if another site presents a schedule
that you also want to present or integrate into your site.An example url for importing an icalendar file over http is:http://path/to/calendar/import_from_url?url=http://url/to/icalendarfile.icsThis will open up a connection to the other site, get the icalendar file
called “icalendarfile.ics” and import it into the folder located at
/path/to/calendar/CreditsMaintainer, Lennart Regebro - regebro (at) gmail.comRocky Burt - rocky (at) serverzen.comNate Aune - natea (at) jazkarta.comChangelog2.1 (2013-05-21)This version was tested with Plone 4.0.10, 4.1.6, 4.2.5,

icon and link. [aaronvanderlip]2.0a2 (2008-10-04)Implemented the canCreate method for the ATEventCreator so that the ‘Add…’

webdav were not becoming calendar enhanced [Rocky Burt]Fixed issue #41 where regular users couldn’t activate their
own folders to be calendars [Rocky Burt]1.0rc1 (2007-07-31)Many bug fixes resulting from the Boston 2007 P4A sprint#40 - Events not displayed in Month View on Windows IE6. Default install would
not display events in IE 6.  Rob Baker supplied fix.#39 - Timezone issue when exporting to iCal. Issue is resolved. It was an old
version of DateTime.py that caused the trouble. Replacing the file with the new
version (available at zope.org) solved the problem.#38 - Time formatting for internationalization. P4A Calendar now uses the i18n
library to convert the hour/minute format to the locale based on the language
of the incoming browser request.  This change removed several methods on the
Month class that were formally handling this formatting chore.
However, this new code does not have any tests written against it.#36 - Event starting in the past, ending in the future is not listed.
The submitter of the original bug supplied a patch. The patch was applied to the
code base and tested. We concluded that the patch solves this issue.#35 - KeyError causes month view to crash#34 and #37 - Bug deals with a site breakage when the P4A product is removed
from the file system. This occurs after marker interfaces are set on containerish
objects. Rocky Burt concluded that this is a core Zope issue and provided a
workaround is to remove all marker interfaces for P4A when uninstalling the
product via the QuickInstaller. Reinstall does not affect the marker interface
settings. The drawback is that if the product is uninstalled all site setting
dealing with the calendar will be lost. But it was considered worse to have a
product that breaks a site with its removal from the files system. The long term
solution will have to come from Zope core.#30 - Changing folder back to normal causes error.#28 - Events with future month don’t show up1.0beta1 (2007-04-29)Various bugfixes1.0alpha2 (2007-01-14)Fixed bug where URL retrieval was getting the brain’s incorrect URL

site/portal [Rocky Burt]Added support to import iCalendar from a remote URL [Lennart Regebro]Added support for add links [Lennart Regebro]1.0alpha1 (2006-10-21)First release with unrecorded set of functionality [Rocky Burt]
