just installed add event from grid plugin and it works great.  we are using the calendar to sign up for days the business is open.  i have entered events with the title 'CLOSED' for the dates we are not open and that should be the only event entered on those days.  so i would like the add event link NOT to show up on those days.  i tried using code setting a variable $closed if the event title eq 'CLOSED' but it always displayed the add event link.  i would be glad to create a custom event field for closed if that would help.  i just can't figure out any coding that works to suppress the add event link.  please help!

How exactly did you go about that?? (Hint: post the code used)

i started over and have it working now using a field status = open/closed (added parts in red):

               <%FOREACH GRID ROW%>
               <TR <%=$rowheight%>>
                  <%FOREACH GRID COLUMN%>
                  <% $i=0; %> <% $flag=''; %>
                  <TD CLASS="thinborder" VALIGN="TOP" WIDTH="14%" <%=$rowheight%> BGCOLOR="<%IF

SELECTED%><%=$_GRID_CELL_SELECTED_BGCOLOR%><%ELSE%><%=$_GRID_CELL_BGCOLOR%><%/IF%>">
                     <%IF DISPLAY%>
                        <SPAN BGCOLOR="<%=$_GRID_DATE_BGCOLOR%>"

CLASS="griddatetext">&nbsp;<NOBR><%if($DAY->{'dd'}==1&&$VIEW ne

"Month"){%><%=$DAY->{'monthname'}%>&nbsp;<%}%><%=$DAY->{'dd'}%>&nbsp;</NOBR></SPAN><BR>
                        <%FOREACH EVENT%>
                           <%$i++;%>
                           <SPAN CLASS="gridtext">
                           <FONT SIZE="<%=$_GRID_CELL_TEXT_SIZE%>">
                           <% if ($_SHOW_GRID_EVENT_BULLET) {%>•<%}%>
                           <% if ($_SHOW_EVENT_TIMES eq "ALL" ||

$_SHOW_EVENT_TIMES eq "START") { %>
                              <% if ($EVENT->{'schedule'}->{'start_time'})

{ %><%= SCHEDULE FIELD(start_time) %><% } %>
                           <% } %>
                           <% if ($_SHOW_EVENT_TIMES eq "ALL") { %>
                              <% if ($EVENT->{'schedule'}->{'end_time'}) {

%>-<%= SCHEDULE FIELD(end_time) %><% } %>
                           <% } %>
                           <% if (($_SHOW_EVENT_TIMES eq "ALL" ||

$_SHOW_EVENT_TIMES eq "START") && ($EVENT->{'schedule'}->{'start_time'})) { %> : <% } %>
<!-- show link to event only if delete permission -->
<%if ($User->hasPermission($CALENDAR_KEY,"DELETE_EVENT")) { %>
                           <A

HREF="<%=$CGI_URL_QUERYSTRING%>view=Event&amp;event_id=<%= EVENT FIELD(id) %>&amp;datestring=<%=$DAY->{datestring}%>"

CLASS="gridtext"><%= EVENT FIELD(title) %></A><BR>

<% $flag = $EVENT->{'details'}->{'status'}; %>
                           </FONT>
                           </SPAN>
                        <%/FOREACH%>

<% unless ($flag eq 'closed') { %>
<%if ($User->hasPermission($CALENDAR_KEY,"ADD_EVENT")) { %>
<font size="-2"><b><a

<%}%>                        <% if ($i==0) { %><BR>&nbsp;<BR>&nbsp;<% } %>
                     <%/IF%>

Glad to hear it. Thanks for posting the code, maybe it will help others too.

BTW. You probably could have eliminated the need to add the unless... statement and the closing } bracket by just changing this line:

<%if ($User->hasPermission($CALENDAR_KEY,"ADD_EVENT")) { %>

to

<%if ($User->hasPermission($CALENDAR_KEY,"ADD_EVENT") && $flag ne 'closed' ) { %>

JFYI
