"select week" dropdown confusing 11 years, 10 months ago #36858

roll82 OFFLINE Posts: 85	Hi, is it possible to change the "Select week" drop down (which is a bit confusing for some people here) to maybe select month or a calendar pop up. For example, if a customer wants to book something in June (displaying weekly calendar) they have to know what week number it is which is confusing. Thanks, any idea would be appreciated.

Any ideas to this. I know it is possible to display the option for the customer to chose between the calendars (could be a bit confusing for some).

I love the way the weekly calendar is displaying the booking but then when it comes to chosing another week, i am not a fan of the week selection. So would love to have there a calendar option instead...or even better..

displaying 4-5 weeks (example) on the booking page with a next button for the next 4-5 weeks (like my old booking component appointment booking pro)

roll82 OFFLINE Posts: 85	Thanks for your answer. I think i would prefer to have there if not a calendar function (later possible) instead of the current display "16/2013" maybe "22.03.13 - 29.03.13" or "22 March - 29 March" Thanks

If you have PHP 5.3.+ on the server, replace function getWeekSelect in the file administrator/components/com_booking/helpers/html.php near line 657 with following code :

function getWeekSelect($name, $selectedWeek, $selectedYear, $deep, $attribs = '')
    {
    	$arr = array();
		for ($i = 0; $i <= $deep; $i ++) {
			$date = JFactory::getDate('+ ' . $i . ' week');
			$date->modify('this week');
 
			$week = (int) $date->format('W');
			$week1 = $date->format("j.n.y");
			$week2 = $date->modify('+6 days')->format("j.n.y");
			$year = (int) $date->format('Y');
			$text = $week1 . ' - ' . $week2;
			$arr[] = JHTML::_('select.option', $week . ',' . $year, $text);
		}
        return JHTML::_('select.genericlist', $arr, $name, $attribs, 'value', 'text', $selectedWeek . ',' . $selectedYear);
    }
