Hi Joe,

Lokks good.

Only suggestion would be that it would be good if two months are visable, so the default view would show (today) Nov & Dec.  Canhelp with people planning and not have to click to move forward a month, especially as you get close to the end of the month.

Thanks

Nick

Good idea, I'll put adding a 'headline' image to calendar items in my todo list!

Joe

Hi

We don't have many events so it would be nice to have an option to display a whole year of events, as the default used to be. At the moment the options are month, week and day - typically month shows one event for us. It would be nice to be able to see a page of upcoming events, as we used to be able to.

Thanks

Alan

There's no way to configure the default view in the Calendar app (though this is on the todo list).

What you could do though is to add a button to a page which links to the day view of the calendar.

So for your site, the target of the link would be /hoperadio/schedule/view?view=day (you can leave the date out of the link and it'll default to today).

If you wanted to create this as a button rather than a normal link, you can use the bootstrap button class for it.

To do this, create a piece of text like "See today's schedule" and use the wysiwyg link button to create the link to the calendar day view. Then in the Advanced tab for the link, add btn btn-primary into the Classes field. This tells the system to create a button, and set it in the site's primary colour.

Another trick, instead of a button, would be to add a Redirect item to your site using the CMS, set the target url to be the day view, and add it to the navigation menu. (then remove the calendar itself from the navigation menu)

Thanks

Joe

Hi Joe,

Can I add to the request that it would be nice to have an option to display a whole year of events, as the default used to be. Our entries are typically up to six months in advance so seeing them as one list is helpful.

Many Thanks

One option is that you could try adding the Community Calendar includelet to your homepage (or any other page!), and configure how many upcoming events you want to highlight.

I'll look into adding more configuration options to the Calendar app, to give greater customisation of what's displayed.

Thanks

Joe

Hi Joe,

You've had quite a few suggestions from people regarding the new layout of the Events Calendar. I run a village website & add any upcoming village activities using the Calendar. I have had one or two complaints asking what happened to the display of the rolling month that used to be the format of the old Calendar. For our website, I do agree with the complainants, so maybe you could add this request as an option your To Do list.

Thank you

Joe,

Many thanks for adding the "List" view.  I'm sure our users will really appreciate what can be achieved with the extra flexibility.
