I hacked this component together to display "This Day in History" events. I say hacked because I'm fairly new to Joomla component coding and I don't really code all that much anymore. The content was pulled over multiple sources over a course of a year. The module included will pull a key event from a particular day and allow a user to click through to more events. The display page allows users to change and view other days. Note: The SQL information is in a seperate file called jos_thisday.sql. My live server could not process the large query within the xml install document. Locally it worked fine, so I included the file if you would like to give it a try. It is named thisday_sql.xml. http://www.boneworks.net

exactly what I needed by un4mena, April 28, 2008
I was looking for a module to do exactly what this module does and i was quite dissapointed there was nothing until I found thisday. It does exactly what it says: prints events in history and you enter through the admin interface. The only bad about the module is that I will need to mess with the code since it does not show the right date. In any case many thanks to the developer for the module.


Cool stuff by msprabhu, March 18, 2008
Great work! I liked it and it was quite easy to install and get working after reading the previous review. However, the link "Show all" doesnt work. But hey, overall, it's superb!

I installed your extension easily then uploaded/imported the SQL file (unpack and look for it inside the component folder) vía PHPMyAdmin, and finally configured and positioned the module.

Very happy to add it to a client's community website, and I'm looking forward to creating another customized SQL file for a different niche site. Thanks!
