get_event_list yields empty arrays

I hope someone can help me. I keep coming up with empty arrays when calling get_event_list.

Here is my code:

define("_CAL_BASE_PATH_", "/home/nsrca.org/public_html/thyme-1.3-ioncube/");
include_once(_CAL_BASE_PATH_ . "include/classes/class.calendar.php");

$cal = new calendar();
$cal->set("calendar", 17);

// I have tried 'day', 'week', 'month', and 'year'
$week = $cal->get_event_list("week");

//here I get the appropriate number of items, but all empty; 1, 'day', 7, 'week', etc.
print_r($week);
echo("<br><br>");

At first I was entering the calendar name literally; like, “All Districts Calendar” in the “set” command. Then I realized (or thought) I should be using the “id” value for the “Calendar_table” as referenced in the The Selected Week's Events in the Advanced Integration Tutorial documentation. http://www.extrosoft.com/Documentation/Advanced_Integration/Advanced_Integration_Tutorial/#selected_weeks_events

I have eighteen calendars; the “All Districts Calendar” id is 17. I thought for sure when I plugged 17 in for the second parameter of the set command; $cal->set (“calendar”, 17); it would work. No such luck, I still get an empty array returned. I’m kind of stuck and don’t know what to try next.

Get_event works just fine when I plug in any valid “eid” for the Event_table. Eventually, I expect to pick up the eid and incidence values from the get_event_list array.

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

May I have the full URL to Thyme so that I may see your calendar please?

Hi Buff,

Thank you. Can you tell me if plugging in a calendar's id rather than a global view's id works for you please?

I'm not sure if I know if I'm doing this correctly. I tried this;

$week = $cal->get_event_list(17);
print_r($week);

and got this:

Array ( )

17 is the id of the "All Districts Events" calendar in the thyme_Calendars table.

There currently are 45 events in this calendar.

Hi Buff,

Sorry for the delay. I had your FTP info from a previous interaction. I hope you don't mind that I used it. I copied / pasted your original code at http://nsrca.us/thyme-1.3-ioncube/test.php and do see events. Can you tell me where your page that contains this code is please?

Hi Ian,

Please feel free to surf at will.

The code is in the file: /home/nsrca.org/public_html/components/com_kcal

Please excuse the mess; I've experimented a lot, you'll find that much of the code is commented out.

The results at: http://nsrca.us/components/com_kcal/kcal.php?y=2008&m=5&d=31

It was having the incorrect URL defined here:

define("_CAL_BASE_URL_", "http://www.extrosoft.com/products/thyme/demo/");

This invalidated the license which makes it not show any events.

Well, I never would have guessed that. I was taking your documentation on get_event_list literally. I certainly hope that my mistake will help others that read this thread.

Ian, I thank you very much for your time and effort. I should certainly make some progress now. I've been fighting this issue for several months now.

Hi Buff,

No problem. Sorry for any confusion. I'll just remove that line from the documentation since it is not actually needed.
