Create Calendar Events
This is a short guide on how to create calendar events and how to edit the calendar events that you have created.
Create new event
Log in using your Lucat ID on https://www.nano.lu.se/user
1. In the "Content" menu, select "Add content" and then "Event". You may have to press "Manage" to see the "Content" menu.
2. Choose language: please note that this is the language for the calendar entry, not the event itself. As the NanoLund page is in English, you always need to choose English.
3. In the text field "Title", write the main heading of the event (mandatory).
4. In the "Add Media"-field you can add a picture/video to the event.
Press "Add new or existing media" to add files. You can either add new files or re-use already uploaded files from the website library or your personal library. In case you would like to add a Youtube video, you do not need to use the embed-link, it is ok to just use the link of the Youtube page for the video.
Please keep in mind to choose pictures in landscape format instead of portrait, otherwise it will take a lot of room on the page.
5. In the field "Lead" you can provide an introduction.
6. In the text field "Body", provide a description of the event (mandatory). Remember that you can also include links, images and media in this field.
7. Under "Event details", add start and end time as well as place and contact. If there is no physical place for the meeting, you can put Zoom in the location-field.
8. Extra information: it is voluntary to fill those fields, e.g. if you wish to give the GPS position of an event or if there is an admission fee. Only used fields will be shown on the published event page.
9. Category: here, you can choose from the drop-down menu, e.g. student event or colloquium
10. Secondary category: currently not used for the NanoLund website
11. Scheduling options: you can use these fields in case you do not want to publish an event immediately but at a later date instead.
12. You can get a preview of the calendar entry before publishing.
13. Click on "Save" to publish the event. It will be immediately published, unless you have used the scheduling options. Please note that it can take up to 15 minutes for new events to be visible for external visitors.
