Movable Type: Weekly event calendar

I am on Movable type 5.2

How would I create a weekly event calendar (7day) using MT tags? I am aware of the MTCalendar tag but this tag does not support weekly dates.

I would like to create "What's going on this week" type of display.

Solution

  • I don't see a way to do it using the standard template language, but you can probably make a very simple plugin to help you here.

    Your options:

    A block tag that loads the entries for this week.

    A conditional tag that is true is this calendar week is the same as the entry week. (so you can use it inside the calendar tag)

    A tag that set variables for the start and end timestamps, so you can compare them with entries's time.

    Good luck.
