Re: [MRBS-general] Putting restrictions on recurring bookings

[Phil G. <pg...@pi...>]

this has come up many times before... here is the definitive code  
snippet.

in mrbs_sql.inc under the mrbsCheckFree() function,

after the variables are defined, add a new variable

for me it is called $Fourmonth because I do not want people
scheduling out to infinity. Four Months is enough advance notice.

then the if statement below that states that if you are not admin and
it is over four months from now you cannot book this slot.

have fun....

--------begin snippet ----------

$Fourmonth = mktime (0,0,0,date("m")+4,date("d"),date("Y"));

if (($starttime > $Fourmonth) && !getAuthorised(2)){
$err = " You cannot schedule anything more than 4 months in  
advance.<BR> ";
return $err;
}

# Select any meetings which overlap ($starttime,$endtime) for
this room:

--------end snippet ----------
