Plugin Usage

The usage of the EventList-Plugin is simple and straight-forward. As soon as installed and activated, a new tab called "Contact person, location, time" will appear when editing an article, where the input fields can be edited. All fields are optional, i.e. if a field has no value, it won't be displayed in the info box underneath the article.

Additional input fields of the EventList Plugin

  • Show in Event List: If yes, the article is included in the Event List (given it has a weekday); default: yes
  • Contact person: The contact person for the recurring event
  • E-Mail: E-mail address of the contact person
  • Phone: Phone number of the contact person
  • Target audience: The group of people targeted at with this event
  • Location: The location of the event
  • Weekday: The weekday of the event
  • Start time: The starting time of the event
  • End time: The end time of the event
  • Comment: Comment on time (e.g. bi-weekly)

Integration of the Module in the Website

The module can either be integrated as stand-alone module in a defined module position or it can be positioned freely within an article.

For a pre-defined template position, please choose the position in the list of available positions. Under "Menu Assignment" you can define the pages the module is displayed on.

In case of a free positioning, define a module position name in the module position box (e.g. "regular_events"). Then include the module in any article by writing {loadposition regular_events}. It is recommeded to assign the module to "all" pages in the "Menu Assignment" tab.
