A few additional Active Calendar notes

By | August 30, 2016

Just a few additional items with regards to submitting events:

  • Make sure to select the down arrow to the left of the venue to reveal additional venues and rooms. When selecting a venue for the event, make sure to select the down arrow to the left of the venue to reveal rooms, etc. located within the main venue. A few users are “checking” the “Main Campus” (or other venue), and are not selecting any venues beneath “Main Campus.”
  • Missing venue? If a venue does not exist, within the list, let us know. We’ll be glad to add the missing venue and add the correct address with longitude and latitude.
  • Limit the number of characters for the Event Summary. The event summary is limited to 250 characters. Also, the event summary should be used as a hook to entice the user to click to learn more. The event description should be used to provide additional information.
  • Style guide formatting. Make sure that all content within the event follows the College of Charleston Style Guide, including, but not limited to, phone numbers, official department names, etc.
  • Make sure to complete the Contact Information fields and use a valid @cofc.edu email address only.
