Calendar

Creating the basic calendar

Creating a calendar is a two-stage process. Firstly, you have to define where the calendar will appear on the page. Edit a page in Wiki Markup mode:

Below is my vacation calendar.
{calendar:id=vacation|title=My Vacation}

By specifying the title, a new calendar called 'My Vaction' will automatically be created for you. It should look something like this:

You can add events to this immediately.

Adding Events

To add a new event, hover your mouse over a day on the main calendar display and click the 'add event' icon which appears:

Next, a panel asking which calendar you want to add to will appear:

Select 'My Vacaction' and click next. Enter the details for the event:

Click 'Add' to finish the job.

Adding a new calendar

Alternately, you might want to add a new calendar, either one allowing events to be added via Confluence, or one which subscribes to an iCal file elsewhere on the Internet.

Firstly, click the 'Add a calendar link'. If more than one type of calendar is available, you will have to select the calendar type:

Then, enter the calendar details:

The example above is subscribing to the 'Australian Holidays' calendar. You can subscribe to it yourself by entering the following URL as the subscription location:

http://icalx.com/public/rohanl/Australian32Holidays.ics

If you want to be able to add events through Confluence, set the location to 'Local'.

Timezones

With version 2.1.10 of the plugin, you can now specify both specific event timezones as well as the display timezone for the main calendar.

Adding events in different timezones

Setting the timezone for an event is simple - just change the the option below the event time. Note that all-day events do not have a timezone - they apply to the whole day on the specified date, regardless of the timezone. An example is below:
