You can find the link to the calendar here on the forums in the menu bar at the top, next to Quick Links and the FAQ (see below).
The calendar can also be access directly through the following link:
The calendar is not tied directly to the forums and does require a separate registration and login in order to add calendar events. However, when you login the first time, you can check the box "Remember me". As a note, the registration screen asks for a Username, Email, and Mobile Number, the first two are required for registration, the mobile number is not required (and I recommend not putting anything in, regardless).
Self-registration will also ask for a passcode which is referenced below:
Once registration is complete, you should receive an email (at the email address used for registration), with a temporary password for logging in. After logging in to the calendar, you can click on the drop down for your profile and set a new password.
To add events to the calendar, simply click the day to which you want to add the event or the first day in a series of days for the event. There are three categories for events, Available, Tentative, and Unavailable.
Below is a short SOP for adding an event that will make it easy to see who is or isn't available:
- Title: <your name>
- Category: <available, tentative, unavailable>
- Date: <click the calendar icon to open up a selection calendar if you need to change the date, click the clock to select times within the day if applicable, or click All Day or No Time as applicable. If it's only one day, then you do not need to fill in the "End" date, only the "Start">
- Description: <optional>
- Send Email: <don't check, not required>
