Hello!
I'm using Moodle 3.4 boost theme and overriding core_calendar_renderer, its shown error "Fatal error: Cannot declare class core_calendar_renderer, because the name is already in use in....."
Filename : /boost/classes/output/core_calendar_renderer.php
Code:
namespace \theme\boost\output;
include_once($CFG->dirroot . "/calendar/renderer.php");
class core_calendar_renderer extends core_calendar_renderer {
protected function add_event_button($courseid, $day=null, $month=null, $year=null) {
return '';
}
}
This error is happening for one of two reasons (possibly both):
- You've called your class "core_calendar_renderer" which already exists in /calendar/renderer.php, and you can't have two classes with the same name.
- Because your class is in a namespace and you've not prefixed the extended class with \, it is trying to extend itself.
class calendar_renderer extends \core_calendar_renderer {Thank you Mark for reply. I've changed the code showing above but still changes were not showing in calendar which I wants to do.
I've changed the code and placement of file but no changes showing on frontend. I'm trying to remove Add new event button on calendar page.
CODE:
include_once($CFG->dirroot . "/calendar/renderer.php");
class theme_boost_core_calendar_renderer extends core_calendar_renderer {
public function add_event_button($courseid, $unused1 = null, $unused2 = null, $unused3 = null, $unused4 = null){
return false;
}
}
Hi Azmat,
I have tried to override the add_event_button() but it's not overriding but when you override the start_layout() function and go to calendar page you can see that it's working.
class theme_boost_core_calendar_renderer extends core_calendar_renderer {
public function start_layout(){
die("just for testing");
return html_writer::start_tag('div', ['data-region' => 'calendar', 'class' => 'maincalendar']);
}
}
Thanks Nitesh.
