Title: Event Calendar
Post by: daphne on Aug 22, 2014, 05:21 PM
Does anyone know how to make one of these on the forums?  I think it would be helpful to see at a glance what scheduled events there are on tap, without necessarily having to go through all the forum posts on the various threads.  Could be used for both PC- and DM-driven events. 

Does that sound like a helpful idea?

I think it does, really.  At the least, it would be convenient for those DMs who want to look at a calendar, and then post something.

In turn, it would be helpful for players who just want a quick look - especially those with a hectic real life.  And then they can click on the event in question for the announced quest?

Someplace had something like that.  Forgot if it was here, or another place.  Either way, even having a calendar that had stuff at a glance could be helpful.

Sincerely,
Arya

Alright. I enabled it.  Top of the page, there should be a Calendar link now.  Anyone can view it. Only staff members can create events at present.

After we see whether this idea goes well or not, get feedback, etc, would you consider the possibility of faction/group leaders getting the privileges, as well?

That could happen.  I'll need to either create a 'Faction Lead' group or get them listed somewhere though.  Still figuring this system out.
