WPListCal

Where does WPListCal store events?

On activation time, the plugin adds a table called <prefix>_wplistcal that stores all your events.

What happens to my events when I deactivate the plugin?

Before version 1.0.6, on deactivation, the events table is dropped, so if you want to save your event data, back up the table before deactivating the plugin.

As of 1.0.6, deactivating the plugin has no effect on your data. When upgrading to 1.0.6, DO NOT deactivate the plugin until you have uploaded the new version of wplistcal.php

Why is WPListCal different from other WordPress calendar plugins?

WPListCal is specialized to provide clean list or table based output for you to style or reparse any way you’d like. Other calendar plugins force you to use a gregorian calendar view which may be inappropriate for many applications.

Why do some of my events show N/A for author and create date?

Events created before upgrading to version 1.1 did not have those values set, therefore WPListCal marks them as N/A.

I am unable to make events that start or end past January 19, 2038 at 3:14:08am

This is a known bug in PHP (id# 44209) and was fixed in version 5.2.6. The specific issue was that strtotime() did not support 64-bit timestamps.

Does WPListCal use any 3rd party libraries?

Yes, WPListCal is packaged with iCalcreator which is released under the GNU LGPL

My event times are all wrong after upgrading to WordPress 2.9.

Go to WordPress General settings and reset your timezone to a city rather than a manual UTC offset.

I love WPListCal, but I’d like it to do <blank>.

Great, I’m glad to hear feature requests. Just post a comment on the plugin’s homepage.
