Manage Events

The Manage Events screen allows you to review, add, remove or change events for the Event Schedule Plugin.  This screen gives you access to all the events the plugin polls when filtering events to create bulletins.

 

You can view events for today and the future.  The Event Schedule Plugin automatically purges events that are older than one day in the past.  If you choose an invalid date, as in February 31, then today's date is used instead.

 

 

You can enter any description you like, limited to 255 characters.

The stop time must be after the start time.

 

 

All rooms in all buildings are available in this list.  The format is Building Name - Room Name.
