Once you have completed the installation process, the next step is to configure the Calendar Base's plugin. The plugin controls what views are displayed in the Frontend as well as offering some additional options.
- Illustration 8: The Calendar Base Plugin's Flexform
Refer to Illustration 8. If you haven't done so already, give the plugin a Header title (1).
If you don't want the Header to be displayed in the Frontend, select Hidden from the Type drop-down list (2).
In the Startingpoint field, select the Storage Folder where you will keep your Calendar Records (3). This is most likely either the Storage Folder you created in Step 2 of the Installation, or your site's General Storage Page.
As shown in Illustration 9, there are nine tabs in the Calendar Base Plugin. Use the following illustrations and descriptions to configure the plugin as desired.
Note: Each FlexForm value can also be set via TypoScript and FlexForm settings will override the Typoscript. The Advanced section of this document provides more details on the available fields.
Be sure to save the Flexform when you have finished configuring the plugin.
Refer to Illustration 9.
The General Settings tab sets the available views and a variety of general options that are shared across the views.
Allowed views: Determines which views will be available in the Frontend. The first view in the Selected field will be treated as the default view. There are many different items you can add to your calendar. Each will be explained in their related section of this manual.
Calendar name: The name of the calendar. This will be the Header displayed throughout the views. This field is optional.
Allow to subscribe: Allows anonymous Frontend users to subscribe to an event so that they are notified of any changes to the event. It is recommended, however, that the Captcha Library extension be installed to ensure only legitimate users are able to subscribe (see Using the Suggested Extensions: The Captcha Library).
Allow FE user to subscribe: Allows registered Frontend users to subscribe to an event so that they are notified of any changes to the event.
Week start day: Choose which day of the week you want to start with in your calendar display. Choices include a traditional Sunday start day or a business Monday start day.
