Events Calendar 2.0 Polish!

Sep 26, 2011 at 01:00 PM in Features

Since launching our revamp of the Events Calendar we've received lots of feedback and suggestions from you guys, which we greatly appreciate. So this week, we're pushing out a polish update for the calendar and incorporating many of your suggestions =)

Calendar Admin Section
The Admin section for the Calendar has received several enhancements:

2 Default Event Categories now exist, "No Category" and "Alliance". You can use these to color events on your calendar that have no category set or are posted by one of your allied sites (if you use the Alliance feature).
The Audit Logs now include the Date with each message, making it clearer which instance of an event the messages relate to. You can also search by entering the date in the message field to see all audits for one instance of an event.
There is now a new Events Admin permission you can assign, which controls who can access the Admin section of the Events Calendar.

Viewing an Event
The page for viewing an Event is now polished up with the following changes:

Drag-and-drop is now enabled for the Roles, Status and Groups tabs; allowing you to drag-and-drop participants to make changes for them (such as switching someone from the Tank to Damage role).
When signed up to an event, a Change button is now shown, allowing you to make changes to your signup (such as switching your role or status).
The tabs have been re-ordered, with Groups moved after the Status tab.
Participants now have their position displayed with their name if they are attending, and an "M." if they are maybe attending.

* tank mage op!

Events Calendar
The Events Calendar has received a few visual touch-ups:

Events which have category colors no longer crop and will wrap (except with images).
The spacing on the calendar has been adjusted to appear less busy with more events.
The tooltip for events has been compacted, and now includes counts of attendees.

As always, we love to hear your feedback =)

Can you make it so that members can remove/change themselves without having the special permissions that would also allow them to remove/change other members? A problem I described here: http://getsatisfaction.com/shivtr/topics/i_have_2_permission_issues (first problem, 2nd is unrelated)

Hi Eber,

Thanks for reporting the Change permission issue; that is now fixed =)

When is the next calendar update, adding the ability to add custom roles? Also, how difficult would it be to add the level of member character (ex. 1. Nuzo Priest 62)?

Is there any way you can see the names of the sign ups again from the side block without having to click it? For the Next Raid side block.

An option to toggle images on or off would be helpful. Some folks like to see full info at a glance instead of hovering over. Otherwise good update.

Hi Mudhawk,

You can disable the images on the calendar if you like by clicking the Admin button on your calendar then going to the Settings tab and unchecking the option =)
