This module provides extra coloring options for the fullcalendar module. This module hooks into the fullcalendar color api. I wrote that api with Tim Plunkett and Geerlinguy. http://drupal.org/project/fullcalendar

We decided to not extend the basic color module any more. At the moment the color module provides coloring for node types, taxonomy terms and users in a fullcalendar.

Thats why I created the Fullcalendar Color Extension module. It will contain some coloring options which wont be included into the basic Fullcalendar Color module. It is possible that some of these features will end in the basic coloring module. We will see what the future will bring.

At the moment there is one extension. I implemented an UI to link any classname to a color. So if an event in a calendar has a specific classname we can give that event a specfic color. This alrdy could be done by implementing some hooks but now it is available through the UI.

Use case:
In the views UI we can define a class for each gcal calendar we load into fullcalendar. With can use the same classname in the fullcalendar color extension UI. To provide a color for that class.

Gave this module a thorough look and it is very well created.
The module works great, Drupal coding standards & best practices are followed, all APIs are properly used, ...

2 really minor remarks:
- Coder returns a few minor issues (trailing spaces and problems in comment formatting)
- The description on the project page could use some extra info (e.g. possible usage scenario). I had to mess around with my Views settings a bit before I got it working, so that could perhaps be clearer (or maybe i'm just an idiot :)

Don't know if I can already mark this as RTBC, but the module is pretty much perfect, so give this guy Git access already :)

You have been granted the ability to create full projects. Use this power sparingly and only when appropriate! Congratulations.

Hmmm. What's the difference between this and the "Colors" module?

@paulgemini, aspilicious helped write the colors module, and they are all going to integrate. No worries!

Cool! I've jumped from Calendar to FullCalendar on a couple of sites. I'd love to see this in drupal 7 too! #1085862

After installing the extensions submodule (success reported) getting the colors tab in an unusual place - on the general configuration overlay. Clicking on the tab results in an error (screenshot attached) What am I missing?
