iCalX

Package Description

iCalX - iCalendar generator for MODX Revolution

A pair of simple snippets and a template which allow you to easily create iCalendar files.Supports multiple iCal files per page and passing data via _SESSION or _GET.

Place the iCalGenerator snippet at the TOP of your template before any characters    Parameter: useSession - use _SESSION to pass data, otherwise use _GET, must be the same in both snippets. Defaults to 1. If you have disabled session cookies on your site, you should set this to 0. This will result in a long, ugly URL but it will work without cookies.

Use iCalLink to create the URL for link to an iCal.   

Parameters:

•     useSession - use _SESSION to pass data, otherwise use _GET, must be the same in both snippets
•     instance - integer identifier if there are multiple iCal links per page, must be unique
•     tpl- template chunk, defaults to included sample chunk wx-ical.tpl
•     dtstart - date/time of event start in server timezone, in Unix epoch or standard format
