Use Views Module? [#113897]

Webchick mentioned she had OG_Calendar on her radar screen for eventual update to 5.0. But wouldn't it be possible to do this with the views module? I've played with it a bit, but haven't figured it out yet. Anyone else tried it?

The views module doesn't have a way of displaying a calendar, so no. That wouldn't be the best solution.

However, the only thing stopping this module being 5.x compatable is the og_calendar.info file. Add this to modules/og_calendar/og_calendar.info and it starts working again:

; $Id: og_calendar.info$
name = Organic groups calendars
description = Displays a calendar for groups.
dependencies = og event
package = Organic groups

Guess I was going on the vague memory some Event/Views connection. I think maybe it was just that I saw Event Views in the Event section of my modules list.

Anyway, just adding the .info file doesn't work for me. That makes the module show up under Administer>>Site Building>>Modules (like it should). And I get a 'group calendar' link in the Group Details block. But the resulting page doesn't list any group events. I just get "No (visible) events for the Group-Name group were found!"

Looking at the module upgrade handbook page, the only relevent change I see is hook_link. But the creation of the link seems to work fine. Its just that none of my events associated with a group are showing up on that page.

So I guess maybe I've got something out of config in my OG setup. I've verified that the group association is getting saved on the node edit form. And my Event content type is not one of the Omitted content types on the OG config page.

I can't really think of anything else that might cause this behavior.
