Hi,Since a few weeks the company I'm working for is using Alfresco Share 3.2 Community as a tool. During these weeks, we've had several questions regarding small adjustments to the out-of-the-box dashlets and functionalities. My question is if it's possible to do the following (and maybe some pointe

Since there wasn't an answer yet, I'm wondering if I posted the post in the correct section of the forum.
If it's not the correct section, can someone move my message to the right one? Thanks!

1. Yes, this should be quite straight forward to do. See user-calendar.get.html.ftl, user-calendar.get.js, user-calendar.get.desc.xml in Share. You can just create user-calendar.get.rss.ftl to create an iCal feed.
2. This should be possible.
3.Yeah. Take a look at the dashboard-*-column.xml files in Share.
4. More complex but definitely doable.

See http://edlovesjava.blogspot.com/search/label/extending%20share for how to extend Share. See http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Web_Scripts on how Share talks to Alfresco repository.

Let us know if you have any specific questions.

Thanks for your quick reply. I'm currently busy with the first thing: creating an iCal feed of the 'My Calendar'-dashlet. You're saying that it's possible to make a calendar.get.rss.ftl, but is this not only for an RSS feed? Two specific questions:

1. I tried the code the following to add a feed icon in the dashlet header. Now it's showing the RSS sign, but I want it to be iCal.
2. Do you have an example (or example file which is out-of-the-box) on what kind of code needs to be stored in the calendar.get.rss.ftl?

<div class="feed"><a id="${args.htmlid}-feedLink" href="#" target="_blank"> </a></div>‍

and also..

<div class="ical-feed"><a id="template_x002e_toolbar_x002e_calendar-publishEvents-button" href="/share/proxy/alfresco-feed/calendar/eventList" rel="_blank">iCal Feed</a></div>‍

I'm looking at the same thing. I'm no no coder, so I'm a bit stuck. It looks like following piece of code from toolbar.het.html.ftl creates the iCal stream:


         <div class="ical-feed">
            <a id="${args.htmlid}-publishEvents-button" href="${page.url.context}/proxy/alfresco-feed/calendar/eventList?site=${page.url.templateArgs["site"]}&amp;format=calendar" rel="_blank">${msg("button.ical")}</a>
         </div>
‍‍‍‍‍

When I put this in user-calendar.get.html.ftl, it gives an html-500 error. Maybe because it calls for an site, which isn't there (because I'm on mu user Dashboard), or because it needs code from calendar/helper.js, which seems to have some code that generates an iCal-stream.

Can anyone point me, ander others, in the right direction?
