Category: Feature request

Currently, the blog feature features only limited information, both for users and for admins.

For users, new blog entries should IMHO be listed in the since last visit module, currently they aren't.

For admins, blogs AND blog entries should be part of the statistics page, currently both aren't, so as admin, you only see the total number of blog page views, and have no clue, which of your blogs is more popular, and inside blogs, which entries generated the biggest audience...

As discussed in the TRM 2021-12-19

On Tiki 18 and 19

On Trackers when you insert a tracker field type file you can (have to?) select a gallery for your files. It is the gallery where files you upload using this field will be saved. You have also an option to "browse" if you want the user to be able to select a file from your files gallery.

When editing an item you can then browse a gallery but the modal show ALL the files in the complete files gallery. It should show (by default or restricted) the files from the selected gallery.

Many (most) websites require the use of both a main menu and a secondary menu.

this is a feature request. i found the tracker very useful in many ways. perhaps some additional feature would be nice :)

1. bulk delete entries.
- when theres a lot of item submitted. deleting them one by one is very tedious and slow. this is the same as to the adding/delete users in 1.8 where it was enhance in 1.9 to be able to bulk delete users......this should be incorporated in the tracker which would make it more streamlined i assume.

2. import/export to/from csv.
- we always keep an archive database data. it would be nice to have an import/export feature to automaticly populate our tracker with items from a csv file. tikisheet does this but it has nothing to do with trackers. and the same to export all data to a csv file.

just a request i hope people would find usufull.
thanks for a super than great, top class CMS, tikiwiki........

When creating (editing) some event and change start date to the value that is newer than end date, user must change end date manually

I have only one calendar and my users keep asking me what that Groups and Tools box is for. How 'bout a setting to hide this box?

Not sure if intentional, as I cannot remember if the calendar used to do this, but I noticed some odd behavior with date highlighting.

When you are adding a new event and select a new date, the selected date is not highlighted properly. You can click it multiple times and the date is input to the date line correctly, but the box representing the date is not highlighted.

Example screenshot (from 15.x demo)
{img fileId="1104" thumb="box"}

But if you close the date selector and reopen it, the date you previously selected will be highlighted.

Example
{img fileId="1105" thumb="box"}

I think the expected behavior should be that when you click on a date it highlights.

Calendar Feature: When Add-ing an event a user is presented with options to pickup the Start date and End date, there is a calendar icon which is good. When picking up the hour and minute a user is presented with arrow down list. This is good if only a few events to be Add-ed. However, when a user enters a lot or its users task to enter say appointments for many events. It would be easier to be presented with a data entry screen like a spreadsheet: where columns and rows are arranged in such a way that there are arrows to move days or months or years say located at the top row, while the next rows are breakdown of days hours and minutes divided according to a setting of say every 5 minutes or 10 or 15 minutes. The benefit of these is where a user's daily job is only to enter so many events everyday, user simply look at the top row for say a date of a month and look on the left hand side where there are rows of hours divided in to say 5-minutes event/appointment, then looking at the right coordinates of date-hour-minute for the event, the user simply click/2xClick to open the coordinate then type/enter a description of an event. Its done! For example event is 30th of June 2013 at 7:30 a.m. User looks at the top row, either click arrows to get the future date, then look on the left hand side for the row-column of 7 a.m. and click 30 and enter the event description, does the same for another event.

I don't know if this is a feature to be added but i think this is great, makes data entry quick on high volume addition of events. Sorry i am not a programmer.

We are running in a multi tiki environment on Windows Server 2003, tikwiki 3.2 and php 5.3.

The calendar should be in the category system.

Would each calendarID be assignable to a category?
Would each event be assignable to a category?


Clarification: Calendars and Calendar Events should be categorisable.

Calendar is missing from the theme control center

In Tiki 26 this is the bottom of : https://tiki.org/tiki-calendar-edit_item?calitemId=243

{img fileId="2109"}

From my point of view;
* "Preview" and "Copy to a new event" seems the prevalent actions (they are not) and they look alike
* The "Save" action (the prevalent action) is kind of dimmed (text/bg contrast doesn't help) and between the 2 action above)
* The "Delete event" look also like a prevalent action and lost its danger attributes (all buttons look redish/orangish)
* The "Export Event as Ical" is the same colors as the save button.

Added to this, some terms in buttons are Capitalized some are not.

On mobile...
{img fileId="2110" thumb="box"}

To be able to add a comment to an existing calendar item.

Calendar needs a setting to choose 12Hr time. Now when you add a new event you can only choose times in 24hr mode. This is true even if you have set your preferences for the application to use 12hr time. (Marc Laporte is now aware of this problem).

It might be best to have the Calendar new event time reference the time (and date)settings in the "general" admin screen.

The Calendar of 18.5 does not support repeating events with NO final date. Not only relevant for birthdays, but also for commemorative events. And I have tested to enter 0 as number of repetitions, that doesn't work.

There are a lot of different PIM applications using the iCal format, that Tiki can export.

As example I showed a usecase, where s.b. needed a synchronisation between Tiki and Google calendars, to make Tiki generated events visible in his Google Calendar, to ease the effort of sheduling between Tiki generated events and his personal google events.

I suggest a project for Calendar Syncronisation.

Please see: ((Calendar Synchronisation))

Calendar has been great for a while now as an event calendar. But what about for appointments?

For this use, notifications would be sweet. I would like to be able to configure an email reminder before an event (+ a pop-up if user is logged in.)

Time of email reminder should be configurable per event. Sometimes, I want a reminder 15 minutes before. Sometimes, I want 3 days. I could configure to send an email (or SMS) to my phone.

I guess we'd need a cron job for this to work efficiently.

Congratulations on the work put in on the calendar. I love the recurring event feature!

Of course there is always more: I would like to be able to post an event that recurs, for example, the second Saturday of each month.

Currently, I can only post an event that recurs by date. Many of the events that I post occur on the first Wednesday of the month, or the second Thursday. They recur, but not by date; rather, they recur by designated weekday.

Thanks for any help you can provide on this.

P.S. Also, some events occur the same time each weekday (but not Saturday or Sunday). Providing for weekday recurrance would be a nice addition as well, but less important than the above.

When I export and import Tracker fields, all of the values are works well except some of features. That is Permissions value of "Visible by" or "Editable by" in Tracker fields are not exported or imported well.

As I have tested, it does not work in Tiki 11 or 12, and doesn't know the above versions are works well or not.

I have been worked export and import Trackers in production. When I doing this, I have to update the permissions values manually every time. It is an tiresome job for me as you may know.

Is there any other good idea?
Or is it an excluded feature in Tracker export? If it is, could you enable the feature?

Thanks,
Joon

I can't add an SVG image.
Even with HTML enabled, it will add an tag into my <object> tag preventing me from using SVG images.

With SVG already being an important element on the web, this is unexcuseable and needs to be fixed asap.

{syntax type="tiki" editor="plain"}
"Delete unused images" in the Admin panels does not affect images uploaded via the WYSIWYG editor, and the user interface does not provide any other means of deleting ANY images from the FCKeditor upload directory.

If you write in a wiki page the following code:
~np~[http://website.com|~~#FF0000:Site~~]~/np~

Your link will not be colored as it should.

This has been tested on 1.9.7 and 1.9.10.1

It should work as with wiki links.

If you write this:
~np~((HomePage|This (example) doesn't work))~/np~
It gets displayed as is instead of having a link with parentheses in its text.
The bug exists on 1.9.7 and 1.9.10.1 at least.

This was working well with 1.8.x
