EventCalendar 3.0.3

Date
I've released a bugfix version of EventCalendar v3.0. Download it here:
eventcalendar30.zip

The main changes are:

  • (Sort of) compatible with Wordpress 2.0. A hack to WP is required (see below), and even then the category listing doesn't work. (thanks everyone)

  • Compatible with iCal 2 (thanks Heather)

  • Now works better with Wordpress pages. (thanks David Ellenwood)

  • Added per month header option to event listings.
    (See readme.txt. Thanks Jeff Morrow for the idea.)
  • Now uses 'siteurl' and 'home' correctly.
    (Thanks to Sibo Lin & Rusty Smith for putting me straight.)

  • Fixes incompatibility with PHP5.

Patch for Wordpress 2.0

The following patch is required to get the basic functionality running on Wordpress 2.0. Patch the file wp-includes/classes.php by adding
lines as below. Add the lines starting with '+', but don't include the '+'
itself:
