Universal plugin control panel

Before changing anything, beware that settings will be applied only after pressing “Save” button. If you leave page without saving - all changes will be lost.

Settings

  • Width and height - size of scheduler on the page
  • Link - link to the page, where scheduler is placed
  • Debug mode - can be used to get detailed report when data is not loaded or not saved correctly
  • Repeat events - enables support of recurring events
  • Prevent overlapping - allow only one event in the same timeslot
  • Mini-calendar - adds mini-calendar icon on top, and calendar based edit-form.
  • Modes - list of tabs, which will be on top of scheduler

Access rights

Allows to define access level for different groups of users:

  • Add - ability to create new events
  • Edit - ability to edit existing events
  • Show - ability to see the scheduler

And set private mode:

  • off - events are public. Users see and can edit (if the appropriate check is set) all events
  • Private mode - users see and can edit (if the appropriate check is set) just self-created events
  • Private extended mode - users see all events but can edit (if the appropriate check is set) just self-created ones

Templates

You can define

Administration

Panel shows the list of all events in the editable grid, you can add | delete | edit | reload events here.

Custom fields

Panel allows to define custom fields, which will be linked to events.

There are two types of custom fields

  • Textarea - plain text field
  • Select list - select box with list of options

Each field can have

  • Name - the name of a field in DB ( will be created automatically )
  • Description - will be used in edit-form

Select list fields have also extra flags

  • “use as colors” - allows to define which color event will have, based on custom field value
  • “use as units” - creates an unit view based on list of options
  • “Timeline” - creates a timeline view where you can choose time-scale unit:
    • Day
    • Working Day
    • Week
    • Working week
    • Month

Depending on your needs you can choose one or both of these views.

For advanced users

For advanced users we offer extra possibility - to wide available functionality.
All you need - scheduler_include.html file (you can find it in the plugin's folder: you_wordpress/wp-content/plugins/event-calendar-scheduler/scheduler_include.html).
How does it work?
You add the desired additions to the file. Essentially, it's all. To the page the contents will be added automatically (the file is included to the page on default).
