About the Calendar App

The Calendar application is built in the Application Development Framework (ADF).

Overview

The Calendar application allows for robust handling and display of events. Calendars can be displayed by day, week and month in both list and grid formats. The events that show in the calendars can be determined by Organization, Category, Sponsor and many more parameters. This fine level of control makes it ideal for having internal and external facing calendars for your organization.

ADF Library components that are required for the Calendar application:

• CEData_1_0
• CSData_1_0
• Data_1_0
• Date_1_0
• Forms_1_0
• Scripts_1_0
• CCAPI

The ADF must be configured correctly for your site. The Site Configuration (ADF.cfc) wiki page has instructions for configuration.

Contents

The Calendar application contains the following:

• Custom Coding - various components and scripts.
• CommonSpot Components:
