Is there a way I can make a Joomla Studio event list module link to the event view inside a wrapped calendar? I would like to have custom event lists populated throughout the site that all link to the correct event view in the wrapped calendar.

Thanks

Hi steve,

I've been thinking on this for a while and I think I've come up with a solution:

1) Create a file in Thyme's folder called index2.php with the following contents:

Code:
<?php

if(preg_match("/\&eid=(.+?)\&inst=(.+?)(\&|$)/", $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'], $matches)) {

   $_REQUEST['event_action'] = 'View';
   $_REQUEST['eid'] = $matches[1];
   $_REQUEST['instance'] = $matches[2];

}

include("./index.php");
?>


2) Change your wrapper URL to point to index2.php.

3) Get the URL of your wrapper by copying the link location of the menu item. Let's say it's: http://www.foo.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=28

4) In the event template of your event list in Joomla Studio, use this as the event title:

Code:
<a href='http://www.foo.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=28&eid=$id&inst=$inst'>$title</a>


Clicking on that should take you to the wrapper page with eid and inst set. index2.php should will look at those and see that you want to view an event. Let me know if you have any trouble.
