Ok. here's what was going on. <br><br>First, if you, Ed, or any admins (me, Josh, Brian, etc.) are submitting events, we have the power to set the Published checkbox when creating the event. Because of the way I have the workflow set up, we need to not do that. Add the event then go tot the Admin events page to approve it like other submitted events.<br>
<br>Next, a location is actually required for the event to show up on the calendar. So if we don't select something other than --none-- , the event doesn't display even if we approve it.<br><br>Next, I had added a few items to the list of locations, and list of hosting groups. The calendar default view was excluding those additions so I updated the calendar view so by default it shows everything again. For some reason I forgot to add Community Connections as a working group initially- I added it the other day, but since the display wasn't showing any Community Connections events, they werent displayed. <br>
<br>Finally, I changed the old CC event so that it's repeat ended this past week, leaving the past events intact. This should be noted as important for preserving the record of past events, particularly for working group meetings. For example, I could have just deleted the Wed entry, which was set to repeat until next year. But that would have removed the record of the group meeting from now back to the time the event was created. Something to note if you make changes to other working group event times. Also a little archival anal-retentiveness coming out here from your rad librarian.<br>
<br>anyhoo. All fixed, explained, etc. let me know if you run into anything else or have ?s<br><br>-C<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Apr 23, 2010 at 5:14 PM, Chris Ritzo <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:chris.ritzo@gmail.com">chris.ritzo@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
