I am using Drupal 6.14 and calendar 2.2. Using the views module, I can get the events on the calendar to have a color stripe above them, but I can't seem to make the legend appear at the top of the calendar. I am using taxonomy to categorize my events. I have noted in some of the posts that there is an indication that the legend needs to be enabled, but I can't find anywhere that I can enable it. If it matters, I am using the chamelon theme.

I found the calendar video tutorial to be very helpful. Is there somewhere that has documentation of the calendar module?

Thanks

I believe the calendar legend is in a block that you would have to place in a region.

Thanks,

That is a reasonable place to do the function, but I wouldn't have ever guessed it was there if someone hadn't pointed me to it.

I got it to display in the right had column. When doing the blocks, I had only a choice of right or left column. Is there a way to include the middle area as a block so I can put the legend in it?

The theme defines what regions are available. You'll have to modify the theme or create a sub-theme... or find a different theme for that I'm afraid. You could look also try to find the code in the calendar module that generates the stripe... then place a modified version in the header or footer of your view. But that may be a bit rough.

I just started messing with themes and I am not quite ready to try to go into the code to modify code stuff directly. I can live with the stuff on the right hand block. Thanks for your input.

You could add the block to the "Content" region and then specify that it only display on the pages that you want the legand to display like the calendar page.

This will put the block below the calendar
