Release information
This is a new version of the DPCalendar Joomla calendar extension. All users are kindly requested to update. Please read the release notes for a complete list of changes in this release.
The minimum requirement for this version is Joomla 3.7!
Prerequisites
DPCalendar needs the following environment to run successfully:
- Joomla 3.7 and above
- MySQL >= 5
- PHP >= 5.5.9
Basically DPCalendar needs the requirements of a Joomla installation.
Installation
To install DPCalendar, you have to download the package and upload it through the Joomla installer. You can also install DPCalendar through the built in Joomla web installer. After a successful installation configure the component, modules and the plugins and publish them. For more information how to get started with DPCalendar read our short getting started guide.
Upgrade
To upgrade DPCalendar from an earlier version, just install the package or individual extensions with the Joomla installer, DPCalendar will handle the upgrade procedure by itself.
- We changed the event view that the title is rendered in it's own layout. If you have an override for /components/com_dpcalendar/views/event/tmpl/default.php then you need to adapt it to the new code, Don't worry it's just one line.
- The booking and ticket form layouts got a rewrite to support now the sort parameter from the options. That's why the booking and ticket custom fields must be resaved to not show the fields doubled in the layouts.
