opencart calendar help

[ianhaney50]

Hi

 

I found the following extension for opencart, it looks perfect for what I need but am trying to do it myself to understand the coding better but got stuck

https://www.opencart.com/index.php?route=extension/extension/info&extension_id=16530&token=9f7ebe35ce7a380fde936f97007cc60b

 

I managed to get the calendar displaying all ok on the front end and it calls the events from a php file by looks of the coding

 

<div id="eventCalendarHumanDate"></div>

                

                <script>

$(document).ready(function() {

$("#eventCalendarHumanDate").eventCalendar({

eventsjson: 'http://upyerpole.co.uk/bookingoc/catalog/view/theme/default/js/event.humanDate.json.php',

jsonDateFormat: 'human'  // 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS'

});

});

</script>

<script>

$(id).eventCalendar({

  eventsjson: 'file.json',

  jsonDateFormat: 'human'

});

</script>

 

Looking at the extension he has managed to add it into the admin side so events can be created by the admin side but I am not sure how to get that done

 

Looks like the person who made the extension is using the following jquery calendar

The php file coding that has the events is below

 

<?php

header('Content-type: text/json');

echo '[';

$separator = "";

$days = 16;

 //   echo '  { "date": "2013-03-19 17:30:00", "type": "meeting", "title": "Test Last Year", "description": "Lorem Ipsum dolor set", "url": "" },';

  //  echo '  { "date": "2013-03-23 17:30:00", "type": "meeting", "title": "Test Next Year", "description": "Lorem Ipsum dolor set", "url": "http://www.event3.com/" },';

 

$i = 1;

    echo $separator;

    $initTime = date("Y")."-".date("m")."-".date("d")." ".date("H").":00:00";

    //$initTime = date("Y-m-d H:i:00");

    $separator = ",";

 

echo ']';

?>

 

I don't understand the coding dates wise to be honest but not too worried about that at the mo, is more trying to get the events being added from the admin side, looks like he has made it into a module looking at the demo admin side?

 

Any help would really be appreciated

 

Thank you in advance
