Plugins - Shared Calendars
Category: Add-ons

This plugin implements fully iCal-compliant calendaring functionality for SquirrelMail.

Multiple calendars may be created, where each calendar can be made public, private, or shared between custom-defined groups of users. User access to public and shared calendars may be given as read-only or read/write.

Calendar administrators can be defined as "limited", so that they may only manage their own calendars, or as super-adminstrators, who have access to all calendars on your system. Note that all administrative functionality is accessed through the "Calendar Administration" selection on the Options page.

Calendar events may be defined as one-time or recurring. Currently, the input mechanism (GUI) for recurring events is a limiting factor, whereas the recurrence engine is fully iCalendar/RFC 2445-compliant and is capable of rendering very complex recursion rules.

This is an extension/replacement of the standard calendar plugin that comes with Squirrelmail and will become standard in SquirrelMail 1.5.1 or so.

Please note that this plugin now includes the "Small Calendar" plugin, and as such the two are incompatible.

Make sure to download the Compatibility plugin in order for this plugin to function correctly.

You must also make sure to download one of the calendar backend plugins:

[ shared_calendars-2.0.1-1.4.0.tar.gz tarball (31549 d/l) Help ]
Requires: PHP 4.1.0, SquirrelMail 1.4.0, Compatibility Plugin, Calendar backend plugin
Description:
  • Fixed incorrect date format for all day events
  • Added $useDomainInCalID; lets admin turn off usage of domain name in calendar IDs; see config file for details. If you turn off the use of domain name in calendar IDs, you may see anomalous personal calendars appear. Export any events you need from them and then delete them and move the events to the correct "Personal" calendar.

  • Added ability to show event times in non-context sensitive fashion

  • Added delete button to event edit screen
  • Fixed problem where events being uploaded in one calendar without event IDs (such as those created with conversion script) would all get the same ID (thanks to Andy Brook [ducky0 at gmail.com])
  • Removed begin time from events on all but their first day on month view.
  • Added Microsoft-compatible exports checkbox (grrr)
  • Added automated conversion functionality of old calendar data to new iCal format (thanks to Andy Brook [ducky0 at gmail.com])
  • "Today" link above small calendar correctly goes to *today* (day view) no matter what month small calendar is displaying.
  • Removed duplicate DTSTAMP entries in exported calendars
