Adding a Calendar Event

Calendar events are very simple on the Cedars website. Most of the time, the only two pieces of information you need are the date and the title of the event.

From the menu, navigate to Content/Calendar. Then click on Add Event as shown below.

Now you will see the following screen:

  1. Enter the date that the event will take place on (generally, you don't need to worry about the time entry, although if desired, you may add it).
  2. If the event is recurring, you can add that info here (for example, the 2-night Cedars Christmas Concert).
  3. You must add the title of the event, something descriptive. (Obviously. ;-) If desired, a very short additional description can go into the Summary line just below the Title.
  4. Choose the category the event should be in. The only categories available are school years, which means you can work ahead if you like. The only category the site displays is the current year.
  5. Click Add to save the event.

The last step is to check the Calendar Page on the website to be sure the event is showing up properly. If it is not, simply go back in and edit the event.
