Events Calendar Block On Index Page...

Hi Dolphins,

I would like to copy the Events Calendar page and put it in a block on index page but when I go to

/admin/pages & blocks/events calendar page  there's no block there so I can't use Deano's block mod and I guess its a coded thing.

Do you have any idea how to do this?

Thanks.

Hello Yuval,

I think that the only way to do this is by making a change to the database. You need to add an entry to the sys_page_compose table which corresponds to the event calendar in the index page, in order to accomplish this.
I recommend backing up the sys_page_compose table before applying the following insert query. This query should work for you:
INSERT INTO sys_page_compose VALUES(NULL, 'index', '998px', 'Event Calendar', '_bx_events_calendar', 2, 1, 'PHP', 'bx_import(\'BxDolService\'); return BxDolService::call(\'events\', \'calendar\', array());', 1, 50, 'memb', 0, 0)
After the query, clear the cache. You can modify settings by going to the Page Builder for the index page, from the administration page. Hope this works for you.

Hello my friend,

I'm switching my template soon and I will apply your code after the switch.

I think it would be better to hire your services to do this for me so when the time comes I will contact you again.

Thank you for your help :)

It didnt work. Really close though. Thanks for the help. Think you can fine tune it  abit for me?

If you are interested there is a Premium Events mod in the marketplace that adds Event Calendar block to the homepage.

I hear 7.1 will let me have the calendar... so Imma hold out a little while. Also, Used deano's tools to get PHP code inserted. I was able to do it.... just a real pain in the butt.
