Back to Build Subsites, Templates and Pages

Overview

For each "Event Organization" that requires its own custom calendar should have its own template built from the main "Calendar Template". These individual organization templates will be used to render the filtered events for each organization's calendar view pages.

Steps

  1. Create a CommonSpot page for the "Event Organization" from the Calendar template. (The subsite for this is not critical but it may be a good idea to keep these templates together in the calendar subsite.)
  2. From the Calendar element interface, click the Render Mode icon.
  3. Select the Filter tab.
  4. Add another row of criteria by using the drop-down under the Approved field and choose AND.
  5. Now in the forth Field drop-down that appears select Organization'.
  6. For the forth operator select Any List Entries Contained In.
  7. For the forth value select the "organization(s)" whose events should display on this template calendar views.
    1. hold CTRL to select multiple "organizations"
  8. Click OK on the render mode window.
  9. Submit and activate the page.
  10. Save the page as a template.
  11. Submit the template for public use.
  12. Repeat these steps for each "Event Organization" that will have its own filtered set of calendar view pages.
