 +===== What can this extension do? =====
 +This is a re-work of my [[Extension:Calendar (Kenyu73)]] extension. This uses **direct database calls** and not wiki pages for events.
 +
 +
 +<font color=red>This is beta and for testing only. I will not maintain back-wards capability until this extension leaves **beta**.</font>
 +
 +
 +===== Key Features =====
 +  *  Uses HTML forms
 +  *  dedicated calendar database tables
 +  *  Email notifications with mw-user select listing
 +  *  Speed
 +  *  less complicated parameters (like original calendar)
 +  *  javascript controls
 +  *  internationalization (i18n) - "en, fr, es, de" included, but others can be added by admin
 +  *  time selection
 +  *  batch mode (add multiple event via custom delimiter... tab or special characters
 +  *  Optional WYSIWYG Editor (TinyMCE) (read how-to below)
 +  *  Does not add pages to special recentchanges page for each appointment
 +
 +=====  Missing Features, but planned  =====
 +  *  recurrences
 +  *  iCalendar (either import or file referencing)
 +  *  colors/formatting
 +  *  wiki format parsing
 +  *  options form
 +
 +=====  Installation  =====
 +==== Calendar Installation  ====
 +  * Download the extension and unzip it to the /extension directory
 +  * Add this line to your LocalSettings.php configuration file
 +    * require_once( "$IP/extensions/mwcalendar/mwCalendar.php" );
 +  * Database tables are automatically created as long as **$wgDBuser** has table create/modify privileges!
 +
 +
 +
 +====  TinyMCE Setup (WYSIWYG Editor) -Optional  ====
 +  - Download TinyMCE either from their [[http://tinymce.moxiecode.com|homepage]] or from my site [[http://mwcalendar.googlecode.com/files/tinymce_3_3.zip|here]]
 +  - Extract to the **extensions** directory
 +  - verify path structure (case sensitive!) - (../extensions/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/tiny_mce.js)
 +
 +
 +That's it! The calendar auto checks for this installation path. You can disable the RTE by the following: 
 +><calendar name="test" disablerte />
 +
 +=====  Examples  =====
 +<code>
 + <nowiki><mwcalendar name="Events" /></nowiki>
 + <nowiki><mwcalendar name="Events" eventlist="30" /></nowiki></code>
 +

 +
 +define( 'mwc_week_start_monday', true); <nowiki>//</nowiki> true=week starts on Monday; false=week starts on Sunaday
