Hi, I' trying to find out how to make it so,instead of a grid like this:

1:00AM
2:00AM
3:00AM
4:00AM
etc.

I'd like to make it look like this:

1:00AM
1:15AM
1:30AM
1:45AM
2:00AM
2:15AM
2:30AM
2:45AM
3:00AM
3:15AM
3:30AM
3:45AM
4:00AM
etc.

so it's in 15min increments.  Where would I start?

Thanx!

Somewhere around the tag: <%FOREACH HOUR OF DAY%> in the default.html template file would likely be the area.

Alrighty, I've got the grid itself to display time slots in 15 minute increments, but I can't for the life of me find where to make is so that you can use each slot individually.  I susspect it has something to do with this reff:

if (($_SHOW_EVENT_TIMES eq "ALL" | | $_SHOW_EVENT_TIMES eq "START") && ($EVENT->{'schedule'}->{'start_time'}))

but I don't know where it's reffering to.

Any ideas?

Thanx!

I believe the events are only sorted and grouped by hour, so in your template you won't be able to get finer grained control over which block they would start in without looking at the start time of each event and grouping them into 15-minute blocks.

Yes, but where to start?

------------------

** but where to start? **

if ($EVENT->{'schedule'}->{'start_time'} ...

Maybe try first printing that variable out to see what format it is in so you can make a conditional using it?

How do you print a variable?

** How do you print a variable? **

One way is:

<%= $EVENT->{'schedule'}->{'start_time'} %>

Check the documentation on Customization : Tag Syntax

Alright, here's my little interpreter:

   <%FOREACH EVENT%>
   <% $qTime = ($EVENT->{'schedule'}->{'start_time'});
   ($hqTime, $smqTime)=split(/:/, $qTime);
   ($sqTime,$mqTime)=split(/\s+/, $smqTime);
   $hTime=join(":", $hqTime,$sqTime);
   $fTime=join(" ", $hTime,$mqTime); %>
   <%/FOREACH%>

Times read out like 10:00 am, I broke it down into:

$hqTime=10
$sqTime=00
$mqTime=am/pm

then rebuilt it in to fTime=10:00 am

now I'm working on getting the 15 minute increments setup.

Well since the calendar already groups events by hour, don't you only need to be concerned with the minutes?

if ($sqTime <= 15)
print it
elsif ($sqTime <= 30)
print it
elsif ($sqTime <= 45)
print it
else # (must be > 45 but less than the next hour)
print it

Just a thought.

awesome, Thanx!  

I'd been trying to figure out what was wrong with my implimentation, both the :00 & :15 events kept appearing in the :15 cell. Mine was a little messier:

<% if ($sqTime ne "00") { %>
 
<% } elsif ($sqTime eq "00") { %>
#etc.

------------------

[DanO]

** Mine was a little messier: **

You could even do it all in a single loop. Eg.

$counter = "00";
while ($counter <= 60)
{
if ($sqTime <= $counter)
{
print it
$counter += 15;
}
}

JFYI
