Make month name and day clickable

other opinions?

Note that you can already achieve this through theming.

I'm using 5.x-1.0, but to make the day clickable, I added the following to the template.php file in my theme folder:

/**
* Catch the theme_event_empty_day function, and redirect through the template api
*/
function phptemplate_event_empty_day($year, $month, $day, $view) {
  return _phptemplate_callback('event_empty_day', array('year' => $year, 'month' => $month, 'day' => $day, 'view' => $view));
}

/**
* Catch the theme_event_calendar_date_box function, and redirect through the template api
*/
function phptemplate_event_calendar_date_box($year, $month, $day, $view) {
  return _phptemplate_callback('event_calendar_date_box', array('year' => $year, 'month' => $month, 'day' => $day, 'view' => $view));
}

Then I created template files for both functions in the theme folder:

event_empty_day.tpl.php

switch ($view) {
  case 'month':
      echo '<div class="day"><a href="/event/'. $year .'/'. $month .'/'. $day .'/day/all/all">'. $day .'</a></div>'."\n";
      echo '<div class="event-empty"></div>'."\n";
    break;
  case 'table':
      echo '<div class="day">'. t('%month / %day', array('%month' => $month, '%day' => $day)) .'</div>'."\n";
      echo '<div class="event-empty"></div>'."\n";
    break;
  case 'day':
  case 'list':
   break;
  default:
      echo '<div class="day">'. $day .'</div>'."\n";
      echo '<div class="event-empty"></div>'."\n";
    break;
}

event_calendar_date_box.tpl.php

switch ($view) {
  case 'month':
      echo '<div class="day"><a href="/event/'. $year .'/'. $month .'/'. $day .'/day/all/all">'. $day .'</a></div>'."\n";
    break;
  case 'table':
      echo '<div class="day">'. t('%month / %day', array('%month' => $month, '%day' => $day)) .'</div>'."\n";
    break;
  case 'list':
      $stamp = _event_mktime(0, 0, 0, $month, $day, $year);
      echo '<div class="day">'. t('%weekday %month %day, %year', array('%weekday' => t(format_date($stamp, 'custom', 'l')), '%month' => t(format_date($stamp, 'custom', 'F')), '%day' => $day, '%year' => $year)) .'</div>'."\n";
    break;
  case 'day':
    break;
  default:
      echo '<div class="day">'. $day .'</div>'."\n";
    break;
}

Here is a small patch that makes days numbers links to day pages and I'm sure i could provide another small one for months as well. I know you can change this with theming but it seems like a feature that everyone would want and could be standard.

Can we add new features to the .2 release?

here are patches for 5.x-2.x and 6.x-2.x

Event for Drupal 8 is unrelated to older versions. If an issue similar to this one exists, please open a new issue with the 8.x branch.
