Calendar/Events
Your standardized site has a built-in system for managing and showing published calendar events, which are specific item types comprised of details such as date/time and location.
Calendar View
Your site provides you with an easy to use Calender application for viewing, adding and editing events. (To access it, go to the contents of your home directory.) The Calendar has five views: 3 Month, Month, Week by Day, Week by Hour and Day. Click on the tabs across the top of the Calendar to navigate between views. The Month view is displayed by default. To change the dates displayed on the Calendar, use the next and previous links or select a specific date and click "Jump." In any of the week/month views, click on an individual date to see the day view, which shows the details of events happening on that particular day. In all views, hover over a particular event to find out more information about it. Click on the title of an event to go to the complete event details. Published events will appear in the Calendar Portlet.

 Tip: The Calendar also supports iCal and vCal formats for exporting Events to your personal calendar. |
Events Folder
All Events added using the Calendar tool are added to the Events folder, located at the root of your site. By default, the Events folder is in the Public Draft state. This folder allows you to easily copy, cut, paste, delete and change the state of your event, depending on your role in the system. Remember, only Events in the published state will appear in the Calendar, Calendar Portlet, and Events Portlet.
