Polls, Events, and the Ads are not working.
Rest is fine. Is there an other way to realize this?
And yes, i use the modifed plugins!

Hi alivin,

 1        Can i use this modified custom_index as a widget in my dashboard? Is it a widget or still a plugin? 

 2  u said that  " http://community.elgg.org/pg/plugins/traveljunkie/read/2653/custom-index Unzip the modified costom index in the same directory"

What you mean by same directory ? you mean your custom_index folder is put in original custom_index folder. Please help me

Did anyone resolve the problems?
It doesn't display any events on the homepage and I don't see Events in the admin panel to approve.

@kobi31 : when you create a new event and the field "Events to be included in Home" is set as "No" it means that the event needs to be approved by an administrator in the administration area (Events to be included in home). P.S. Events that have an expired date won't be showed neither in the administration area.

@michi : Can you explain me in a better way what kind of problems do you have?

@Kettyking: it doesn't exist a widget for custom_index plugin at the moment because it gives you all the information when you go on the site's name.
Downloaded plugin must be overwritten on the current one.

@_h_r_ : maybe you have inserted an event with an expired date. Plugin displays only events that have a final date >= actual date.

If you have any problems about displaying events in home page please do in this way:

go to custom_index/index.php and comment from line 50 to 66

 $entity=get_entity($e->guid);
       $venue=$entity->venue;
      
       print($description);
       $events_calendar .=date('d-m-Y',$entity->start_date);
       (int)$numcar=10;
                if(strlen($venue)<$numcar){
                    $events_calendar .="<h4><a href=\"".$CONFIG->wwwroot."pg/event_calendar/view/".$e->guid."\"/>$venue</a></h4>";
                }
                else{
                    $venue=explode(" ",substr($venue,0,$numcar));
                    array_pop($venue); //toglie l'ultima parola (monca)
                    $venue=(implode(" ",$venue));
                    $events_calendar .="<h4><a href=\"".$CONFIG->wwwroot."pg/event_calendar/view/".$e->guid."\"/>".sprintf(strip_tags($venue)).sprintf(' ...')."</a></h4>";
                }
       $events_calendar .=$entity->description;
       $events_calendar .=sprintf('<br />').sprintf('<br />');

and then type:
$events_calendar .=elgg_view_entity($e);

If you have any other problems about it please contact us!

@kobi
see also no events on mainpage.

Code in the custom_index / new_index.php
            <?php
                if (!empty($vars['area8'])) {
                    echo $vars['area8'];//this will display files
                }else{
                    echo "<p><?php echo elgg_echo('custom:noevents'); ?></p>";
                }
            ?>

The event date format in the form dateFormat: "DD, MM d, yy", but the index.php will have it this way $events_calendar .=date('d-m-Y',$entity->start_date); --> maybe this makes a problem?

Where does it stands: "Events to be included in Home"?
I havn`t found it.

You'll find "Events to be included in Home" in two places:

1) (if you are administrator) in the form of a new event, with 3 options

• Yes (event in homepage)
• No (event must be approved)
• Read (event not approved and not shown in homepage)

normal users don't see that select and "No" value is saved for the event.

2) In the right menu of administrator area, from where approve pending events (i.e. such events in "No" state)

[maybe a better english translation is possible for "Events to be included in Home" ;) ]

how can I show the site events on the index?

and for the login I got this, but the problem is that you alway's see the login. Even when you already logged in!!

$form_body = "<p><label>" . elgg_echo('username') . "<br />" . elgg_view('input/text', array('internalname' => 'username', 'class' => 'login-textarea')) . "</label><br />";
$form_body .= "<label>" . elgg_echo('password') . "<br />" . elgg_view('input/password', array('internalname' => 'password', 'class' => 'login-textarea')) . "</label><br />";
$form_body .= elgg_view('input/submit', array('value' => elgg_echo('login'))) . "</p>";
$form_body .= "<p><a href=\"". $vars['url'] ."account/register.php\">" . elgg_echo('register') . "</a> | <a href=\"". $vars['url'] ."account/forgotten_password.php\">" . elgg_echo('user:password:lost') . "</a></p>";

echo elgg_view('input/form', array('body' => $form_body, 'action' => "". $vars['url'] ."action/login"));

Anyone can help me? Please

First of all, there are updated versions of Modified Custom Index and Event Calendar. Dowload and try them.

Event must be approved by an administrator to be visible in home page.

Finally, the error you reported is very strange. Do you see the php code in the browser?
