Group Calendar
This calendar shows all events for the group and all shared events for its subgroup(s) for the current month. Depending on how Kavi Groups is configured, the calendar appears either at the bottom of the group home page or on a separate page.
To view the group calendar:
- From All Groups, click the name of the group whose calendar you want to view. This takes you to the home page for that group.
- Click the Calendar tab. This takes you to the Group Calendar page for that group.
- To view a month other than the current month, select the month and year from the drop-down lists below the calendar heading and click View. To view the month immediately preceding the current month, click the Previous links/arrows above the calendar. To view the month immediately following the current month, click the Next links/arrows above the calendar.
Note: If you are a visitor to this group, the calendar will only show this group's shared events. See Sharing for more information.
Features
- Legend: Located to the left of the calendar (icons and explanation text). When an event is scheduled, the icon for that type of event appears on the calendar on the date of the event. If an event is cancelled, the cancelled icon appears on the calendar on top of the original icon, and the event details remain available for viewing.
- Chronological list of upcoming events for the current month: Located to the left of the calendar (and continued below as needed). Listed for each event are the date, event type icon, name (linked to the Event Details page), and group sponsor (parent group or group subgroup). If there is an event scheduled for today's date, it appears at the top of the list and is highlighted, with the word Today next to the date in parentheses.
Note: Events may be displayed or hidden from the Group Calendar by various means. Settings in the Admin area for all groups effect the ability to display events here. Also, configuration settings for a particular group may limit/permit the display of their events here. Lastly, groups may opt to not share events, even if they have the ability to do so. See Sharing and Group Administrator Overview for more information.
Tip: To quickly find out an event's scheduled time, place your cursor over the name of the event and read the rollover text.
