Blog Calendar for joomla
Blog Calendar is a componet + module to list your Joomla's articles by date. The module displays a calendar or a dates list pointing to the blog calendar component, which ouput the articles listed by date.
The result is an articles list with blog layout by descending date totally integrated with your joomla site and Community Builder. With the Blog Calendar module your visitors can select a date to show all articles written on that date, also can select a full month and the list will show all articles published on that month.
ATTENTION: I've re-make most of the code of Blog Calendar in the last version trying to make it work in all zonetime configurations. Please, if you find any error let me now in the Bloogie Extensions Group.
DOWNLOAD BLOG CALENDAR RELOAD v1.6.5a (for joomla 2.5+)
IMPORTANT: Blog Calendar component use the joomla core css selectors for blog layout. If your template dosen't support those css selectors there won't be style applied to Blog Calendar component html. You can fix following those steps:
- Create this folder: "templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/html/com_blog_calendar/blogcalendar/"
- Copy the file "components/com_blog_calendar/views/blogcalendar/tmpl/default.php" under the previous folder.
- Edit the file "templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/html/com_blog_calendar/blogcalendar/default.php" adding the classes for blog layout used by your template.
For example, when you open the default.php file of Blog Calendar you can see a first div with class="blog", this is the class used also by com_content in blog layout. Most templates devolopers overrides the com_content output and add their own css selectors. For example RocketTheme uses class="rt-blog" instead class="blog". So, if you change <div class="blog" ..... to <div class="rt-blog"... in "templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/html/com_blog_calendar/blogcalendar/default.php", the Blog Calendar output will be overrided and the css of your template will be used without hacking Blog Calendar core files.
