Create a School Generated Calendar

Platform managers can create school generated calendars.

Select Core.
Select Content.
Select Calendar.
Select Add calendar.
Enter a unique, descriptive name.
Select a color for events associated with the calendar. If you select to use a custom color, you'll also select whether the text font should be dark black or light white for readability.
Determine whether the calendar should be active or inactive. By default, new calendars are active.
Select which event categories should appear as options for filtering the calendar. You can also add new event categories.

Each event category indicates whether it is public or secure and indicates the roles that have access to that category.

For iCal Feed event categories, the date of the most recent refresh also appears. Due to server caching, newly added and edited feeds may take up to an hour before they appear on the calendar. Users can select Refresh to manually refresh the feed. The feed indicates an "in process” status while the request is processing.
Select Apply.
Select the roles of users who should have access to view the calendar.

To grant access to all users, choose the "all school" role. Find this role under "uncategorized."

Tip: To limit calendars by school level, campus location (for school with multiple campuses), or other groupings, we recommend you create a clone of the "friend" role for each desired grouping. Then add users to the appropriate role. Finally, create a new calendar or edit an existing one to use the new roles.
