Calcium Documentation - Dynamic Include
Including Events from Other Calendars
You can specify that events from other calendars should be included
when you display your calendar. When events are added or changed in the
included calendar, you'll automatically see those changes on your
calendar.
You specify which other calendars to include events from via your
calendar's Administration page. Select the Include other
Calendars link from the Settings page for your calendar.
You'll see a list of all the other calendars which you have permission
to include.
Select the calendars you want to include events from, using the
checkboxes.
You can choose to include only events in specific categories for
each included calendar. If you select one or more categories, only
categories in those events will appear. If no categories are selected,
events will be included regardless of category.
If you like, you can override the colors which are specified in
included events, and choose the colors to use for all events
from an included calendar. You can also opt to draw a border around
every event from an included calendar.
In addition, you're able to specify text that will be displayed
above each included event, in a smaller font. This can be used to
further identify which calendar an included event is from. HTML tags
are permitted here.
Events included from other calendars can have special properties:
- Events marked Private will not show up at all when
included
- Events with Private Popups will appear, but you won't be
able to see their popup text
- Other events may appear only with a special string, such as
"Unavailable"
See Event Privacy in the
Adding Events page for details.
Note: The Dynamic Include feature is not recursive; if you
include a calendar which includes another calendar, only events from
the first included calendar will appear. For instance, you might have
three calendars University, College, and
Department, in which:
- University includes College
- College includes Department
The University calendar will display only events which are defined in
the College calendar; events from Department will not appear
when viewing the University calendar.
