I think I solved the problem. Thanks for your help!

This works, but now the events of today are listed at the bottom of the list.

How about this:

ICalEvents::display_events('url=http://www.ufl.edu/calendar/ufCalendar.ics&limit=8&gmt_start=' . mktime(0,0,0) . '&gmt_end=' . mktime(23,59,59));

This sets gmt_start at the very beginning of the day.

It also doesn’t work with this code:

ICalEvents::display_events(’url=http://www.ufl.edu/calendar/ufCalendar.ics&limit=8&before_date=&after_date=: &before=&after=&date_format=%B %e, %Y&time_format=[%H:%M]&gmt_start=’ . time()’&gmt_end=’ . gmmktime(23, 59, 59));

This doesn’t work for me. When I try it I get a white page as a result.
I use this code:

ICalEvents::display_events_nourl(’url=http://www.ufl.edu/calendar/ufCalendar.ics&limit=8&before_date=&after_date=: &before=&after=&date_format=%B %e, %Y&time_format=[%H:%M]&gmt_start=’ . time()’&gmt_end=’ . gmmktime(23, 59, 59));

Pass it to your display_events call:

ICalEvents::display_events('url=http://www.ufl.edu/calendar/ufCalendar.ics&limit=8&gmt_end=' . gmmktime(23, 59, 59));

Where should I place this code? Or do I have to replace the some code with this one?

DeezJee,

How about a gmt_end that matches with 23:59:59 for the current day? That would keep events for today on the list until the day has finished. For example:

$gmt_end = gmmktime(23, 59, 59);

Isn’t gmt_start and gmt_end not for limiting the events to be displayed?
I only want the events NOT be removed from the list before the day has finished. Something like an allday event but with the start time displayed

Russ,

You can write a simple plugin wrapper. Use the code in do_display_events as an example.
