so, my events list of course looks like this
Feb 17 some event
Feb 20 some other event
Mar 5 another event
Apr 1 yet another
for past events, it’s really long. is there a way to break it up by printing year labels (or maybe month/year), ie:
Jan 20 mom’s birthday
Jan 1 ny day
= 2010 EVENTS =
Dec 25 xmas
Nov 23 t-giving
Oct 31 halloween
…
Jan 5 dinner date
= 2009 EVENTS =
Dec 25 xmas
?? thanks guys.

Fri 18 Feb 2011 at 22:07 #46813AnonymousInactiveYou’re amazing. Thanks much.
Incidentally, what’s your rough release schedule … I’m not in a hurry, just wondering how often these things get pushed as updates.
Thanks, Franky, hope you are well!
Fri 18 Feb 2011 at 22:38 #46814AnonymousInactiveHow about a monthly grouping, such as:
January
Event 1
Event 2
February
Event 1
Event 2
March
Event 1
Event 2
for at least 3 months? any way to do this?
Fri 18 Feb 2011 at 23:32 #46815FrankyKeymasterA new release is around the corner, I just want to integrate some small things.
For the monthly grouping: see http://www.e-dynamics.be/wordpress/?cat=18 : showperiod=monthly will help you there (the yearly option isn’t documented yet, because not yet released).

Sun 20 Feb 2011 at 14:57 #46817AnonymousInactiveoh, one more thing on this…
I’d like to put the event list into a table format for some nice columns, rather than the default
<li>
format. And this works by having:<tr><td>#M #j#S</td><td>#_LINKEDNAME</td><td>#_TOWN</td></tr>
in the “Default event list format” and having
<table>
in the “…header” and</table>
in the “…footer”.But as soon as I use showperiod=monthly and have ‘F’ as the “Monthly period date format”, I get
<li class='eme_period'>March</li>
, which breaks the table. Any way to replace the “li” part, so that I can use<tr><td>
? I don’t mind if the class stays in there.Sun 20 Feb 2011 at 17:10 #46818FrankyKeymasterFor now you’re stuck with this … please open a feature request for this.
For the rest: try to use li for now, and use some clever CSS-ing.
Sun 20 Feb 2011 at 22:34 #46819AnonymousInactiveOk, I’ll open a request for this. For now, I’ve done as you suggested and used CSS to do it. For anyone else needing this, here’s how I did it:
This goes in the “Default event list format” box:
<li>
<div class="row col1">#M #j#S</div>
<div class="row col2">#_LINKEDNAME</div>
<div class="row col3">#_TOWN</div>
</li>The CSS to go with it:
.eme_events_list li {
list-style-type: none;
margin-bottom: 5px;
color: #000;
font-size: 10pt;
float:left;
clear: left;
}
.row {
float:left;
margin: 0 10px 5px 0;
}
.col1 {
width: 80px;
}
.col2 {
width: 200px;
}
.col3 {
width: 100px;
}This will give you a 3-column row with separate widths set to your wishes.
