I’ve got a calendar/google map mashup of sorts happening. When an event expires, I want the corresponding marker on the map to stop being displayed. There are a couple paths that I think I can go in – I’ve got limited programming chops – but can hack around. Either path requires me to be able to get at the ftcalendar date of a post to find out whether or not it is current, or past. I think I need to be able to do that from within the code of the map plugin that I’m using.

If (ftcalender date of post xx is current){display marker} – repeat until all markers have been displayed.

Does that make any sense? That is why I’m looking for ways to get at the ftcalendar date of a post…

Yes – ended up doing something like that using the $data[‘TITLE’]. See: http://community.poppyswap.com/t4/

Thanks for the hint! This plugin is working out quite well…

Cool! Thanks for the response. I might try some serious hack-a-thon action on class-shortcodes.php and see how far I get. I’m an atrocious programmer might if you stare at a thing long enough…

Will try coding something like if this eventid[1] looks like the previous eventid[0], then don’t display it.

Then again putting the day in front of it might be the real solution.

Thanks again
