Calendar related FAQs
NOTE: Events and Event Details are now viewable, to the Public, on the Home Page without login!
It is not advisable to add personal details to a Calendar Event. If you need to add personal details, keep the Calendar Event details basic, then Add the Event as a Member News item which does require member login to view.

How do I add a Calendar Item?
Click here to open a new window for Google Calendar. First ensure you are looking at the cranleightortoiseandhare calendar by making sure it is highlighted (red) on the left hand side. A good way to check is to confirm that you can see other future/past events.

Select the Date and Time for the event. Give the event a name and select 'Create Event'. You may also select 'Edit Event Details' and add more details. Please add details in the 'Description' area of the event. Tip: If you add the full address in the 'Where' box a link to a map will appear in the Calendar.

How do I add a General Comment, start a General Discussion or comment on an existing event.
There are two ways to do this:
1) Use the Comments area at the bottom of the Events Calendar page. This area is for general discussion, chit-chat, shout-outs, etc. This Comments area will be cleaned up by the Administrator from time to time. This means Comments will be deleted without record.
2) Add the Event as a Member News item. Members can then add comments to the bottom of the page on that individual Event in the Member News. This is a good way to start a discussion on an Event and keep comments separate from general Events Calendar comments.


How can I Receive Notifications of Events Added, Changed or Removed
To receive notifications of Calendar Events go to Google Calendar and select Settings -> Calendars -> Notifications -> Then select your preferences.
