Calendar PlugIn

**flattery** · 11-13-2009 03:00 AM

So how many years does it take to actually make a plugin. I am assuming that after this much time that it is actually abandoned.

I am unable to find a calendar plugin for RoundCube which really surprises me as a calendar is hugely integral with webmail. Gmail, Hotmail, Outlook, and so on... they all have calendars.

So since no one else is up to this task I guess I will need to start working on one if I don't find one soon and it won't take years to get into a usable plugin.

I did a little bit, but it doesn't seem to integrate well. Even on the demo you have to login to webcalendar separately.

Unless I am wrong. Perhaps I am missing something or some setting, but I am looking for something to be seamless.

I thought I had it working seamless with some code modification, but I was apparently wrong in thinking that $_SESSION['validuser'] gives me a unique ID for the current user.

I assumed this was the variable to use, but when I logged in with two different users I got the same variable.

So can anyone tell me how to get the id or username or something unique for the current user? I have been searching the code and trying things but nothing that I find seems to work.

Well I got it to work for me seamlessly. Had to hack up the code a little since I don't know how to grab the user_id, but it works.

Just through in a cookie to initialize the current user_id and then grabbed it in webcalendar.

Nice calendar when it works right.

Please post your hacks!

**flattery** · 11-15-2009 12:53 AM

Well basically I set it up as single user mode and then in the config.php file I set the user.

I will post my hack in a few days when I get some time, but it does need a little more work and it is definitely a hack.

Does this calendar work for 0.3.1?

**rosali** · 11-15-2009 03:02 PM

Yes, it is designed for v0.3.1.
