Can different URLS/MySQL dbs use same event calendar?

crash777 · 07.06.2004, 18:00

I have several different URLS and different databases with a need to use a similar calendar.

Can they all use the same calendar (Is there a way to link to an event calendar on one site within the other sites and properly use it)?

I am wanting to use Eric's event calendar from one of my sites seemlessly with my other sites... Any suggestions?

Thank for any assistance!

Are they all running Mambo?

If they are all running Mambo, all you need to do is to setup proper access host for your MySQL, it should be accessible.

I personally have not done this but I can't see why it can't be done. We even have components like MamSites that has multisite supports for shared login and sessions.

I looked at mamsites but that is overkill for what I want to do. The integration of the event calendar seems to spefici to the database that it is associated with although I know I could link to it (externally), I am more interested in actually seeing the events (that part shouldn't be a problem) as well as submitting events (more of a problem) from all of my different sites...
I could lock it into the mainbody but I am not sure how to just grab the event calendar for viewing and submitting events...
I hope my questions are coming through clear...

So.. any suggestions on those two up there in bold?
Thanks for any help!
