Two questions: Does anyone try to wrap their phpicalendar inside Joomla? My native google calendars wrap nicely, but phpicalendar wants to be so wide. I suppose I can just have the link in my Joomla menu open a new tab, but I like to keep as much contained and wrapped as possible to maintain some gestalt.
Does anyone know how to change the name displayed in the Pick multiple: box? Right now I have two calendars federated and they both display as basic Webcal, although the correct names show up in the Legend. http://a-ccentral.com/cal What I have been doing is just wrapping gcalendars like so: ACV High School Athletic Calendar http://a-ccentral.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&view=wrapper&Itemid=129 ACV Middle School Athletic Calendar http://a-ccentral.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&view=wrapper&Itemid=130 But I do not like that I cannot seem to have the event's name word-wrap. There are a few other benefits to phpicalendar as well, so we would like to use it in place (although I will say the native gcals look great/better...they just are not as user friendly to the public) --Michael T.

We never used Exchange, but we were using Outlook before the Zimbra initiative. We hosted our own mail using I-Mail before Zimbra. When we went to Zimbra, we eliminated Outlook completely, and stopped any support for it. The group calendars and sharing in Zimbra are excellent. The calendars are pulled every 15 minutes to an ical format and phpicalendar picks up from there. Since phpicalendar allows rss feeds, etc, I can easily have an rss feed into our websites that pull the data from phpicalendar, which gets it's data from Zimbra.
