Look back a few pages (or on the opening post of this thread). This is a very common question answered lots of times.

Unfortunately, there's no spanish translation available yet. If you wish to create one, copy the EN.php file, name it ES.php, and translate the text on the right side of the =>.

Example:

Code:

'ADD_GROUPS'          => 'Add new bookings',
^^ leave this                ^^ translate this

I did that in the frontend but it destroid the layout of the page in FF, I set the float in backend to and now its ok.
Thnx

I just released a new version 2.23.

* New: Bookings can have two different states now: "reserved" or "booked"
* New: Navigation "Next month" and "Previous month" links on month and quarter view
* New: [Back]-Button on Frontend Editing (you had to click on the page link to go back in older versions)
* Fix: When changing dates in the backend, the "end date" did not change correctly in some cases (the end date is set to the begin date using JS if begin date is greater than the end date)
* Added Breadcrumbs to some views

See http://wuermersheim.de/ortsteil/waldhuette/belegungsplan.php for this version in action.

Download at AMASP: http://www.websitebakers.com/pages/modules/calendar-and-time/bookings.php

Edit: I forgot to say:

Known issues:
* Incomplete Translations for Danish and Nederlands due to new language strings.

Updated and corrected Dutch language file attached.

Oops, Dutch... I'm sorry...

Thank you for updating the language file! It will be included in the next release.

Version 2.23 vs V 2.22

which files are affected? Again functions.php and info.php or even others?

[BlackBird]

CalendarAJAX.js
frontend.css
functions.php
info.php
install.php
upgrade.php
view.php

...and all language files

[Falcon]

Thanks,
have the modul completly updated and my previous changes renewed.

[BlackBird]

So you have customized the module? Maybe you'd like to share what you've done?

[comfort]

http://bit.ly/bPp8FF mine is not working after the update... it contains 3 bookings... if you click on year, i see my bookings again. what to do?

[BlackBird]

Oops... I tested with quarter view only. I will check that.

Edit: Works for me when setting "default view" to "year" in the options. Anyway, I found a little bug in the functions.php, maybe this causes the problem on your page. So please replace the include.php with the attached one.

If this doesn't help, please set the PHP Errors to "E_ALL" in the WB backend.

[BlackBird]

Uhm, @comfort, have you checked this out?

Hello Blackbird you've made a really really cool module.
Here is the French Translation file for the version 2.23 !
I hope you'll enjoy and you'll integrate this to your module.
(if you add some strings for a next version don't hesitate to ask me translation in french).

[Edit: I've translated the module description, now the whole module is in French]

[BlackBird]

Wow, that's really great! I will link to the forum thread from the Bookings home page and the AMASP page 'til the language file is included in the next release. Thank you very much!!!

BlackBird, Thank you for this great module!

I'm administering a small companys website and they asked if there's a possibility to add booking option for their cabin. With this module it seems to be very easy 

The users of the page are middle-aged constructions workers so the desing-line of the whole site has been: keep it simple! These guys don't know anything about computers so everything has to be easy and simpe.

This in mind I've deleted the "reserved" -state altogether, everything is simply booked or not. Admin options of the module gave excellent possibilities to set what the end user sees and dosen't see.

Few more things I'd like to do, but since I'm no coder I have to ask for your help!

1. Can I add "show day-view"-"show week view"  etc -links at the top of the frontend, above the bookings view. So that the user is first presented the default view but can then change it easily to whatever.

2. When user is adding a new booking, the dropdown menu shows begin and end month. These aren't loaded from the language file, where can I translate these? This is the most important one, since end-users won't be able to understand english month names.

3. Can I hide the "Group" colum from the mod booking table, the non-administrative user dosen't need to see that?
Thank you again!

1. Can I add "show day-view"-"show week view"  etc -links at the top of the frontend, above the bookings view. So that the user is first presented the default view but can then change it easily to whatever.

Ahm, yes, but you'll have to code it, because you will have to calculate what is "today" or "this week".

2. When user is adding a new booking, the dropdown menu shows begin and end month. These aren't loaded from the language file, where can I translate these?

Hm. I am using strftime() to get the month names there, which uses the LOCALE of the server. I think that's simply a bug, 'cause I changed that behaviour at other places to use the translations. I'll fix this.

3. Can I hide the "Group" colum from the mod booking table, the non-administrative user dosen't need to see that?

In functions.php, find line 1366ff:

Code:

    <tr>
        <td class="mod_bookings_left">
            <?php echo $MOD_BOOKINGS['GROUP']; ?>
        </td>
        <td class="mod_bookings_right" colspan="2">
            <select id="group" name="group">
<?php
    $groups = _GetBookingsGroups( $section );
    foreach ( $groups as $group ) {
        $flag_checked = '';
        if ( $group['group_id'] == $dates['group_id'] ) {
         $flag_checked  = ' selected="selected"';
     }
        echo "<option value=\"", $group['group_id'], "\" $flag_checked>", $group['name'], "</option>\n";
    }
?>
            </select>
        </td>
    </tr>

Change it to this:

Code:

<?php
        if ( Bookings_user_can( 'admin', '', $section  ) ) {
?>
    <tr>
        <td class="mod_bookings_left">
            <?php echo $MOD_BOOKINGS['GROUP']; ?>
        </td>
        <td class="mod_bookings_right" colspan="2">
            <select id="group" name="group">
<?php
    $groups = _GetBookingsGroups( $section );
    foreach ( $groups as $group ) {
        $flag_checked = '';
        if ( $group['group_id'] == $dates['group_id'] ) {
         $flag_checked  = ' selected="selected"';
     }
        echo "<option value=\"", $group['group_id'], "\" $flag_checked>", $group['name'], "</option>\n";
    }
?>
            </select>
        </td>
    </tr>
<?php 
    } 
    else {
        echo "<input type=\"hidden\" value=\"<groupid>\" name=\"group\" id=\"group\" />
    }
?>

...where <groupid> is the ID (number) of your default group. You can leave this blank for "no group".

When viewing specific day. Is it possible to make it show only the hours at which there is some event created? I mean, not to show all the hours, just those that have content.

thx

[BlackBird]

Uhm, no, there's no such option implemented. You would have to hack it.

[BlackBird]

Important question! Is anyone using the "Groups" feature? I'd like to remove it 'cause it seems to me that it's more irritating than helpful.

[WDStudio]

Quick question,

can an event be made for one hour only ? At the moment its minimum of 2 hours.
Is there fast fix for this ?

[BlackBird]

As Bookings first was meant for holiday appartments, I never thought about hourly rental.

Anyway, you _can_ make a one-hour-booking. You may prefer the list view instead of the calendar view for days. I think this will solve your problem(s).
