A detailed look at using and customizing the Sueetie Calendar Event List View Control. Sueetie Calendars are included in the
Sueetie Premium Edition.Events aren't just for Calendars Anymore
You can now display your community calendar events in list format by several types of criteria. You'll find
a working demo of the Calendar Event List View Control here. Here's a screenshot.
Event List Options
The Calendar Event List View Control is designed and works like every other Sueetie List View Control. We're get into the design a little later. Event List Display Options are:
- All Upcoming Events - You can display all upcoming events for a designated calendar. You can specify a number of events you'd like to display in the list or specify the number of days of events from the current or starting date.
- Filter by Type - You can filter events by Calendar Event Type.
- Previous Events - You can display previous events from a given date in reverse chronological order
- Display a single day event list - This is perfect for conferences and other events where you can list all sessions for a given day.
Calendar Event List View Control Design
As I mentioned, Calendar Event List View Controls are designed exactly like every other Sueetie List View Control. The only file you need to get to know is the control's view.ascx in your /Themes/THEME/Views folder. Two view.ascx files for Calendar Events are provided in your release package theme's /Views folder. These are the same views used in the sample Calendar List View page above.
You will also have the source for the Calendar List View page above in your Theme's /Pages folder. The Url to the page is http://yoursite/eventlists.aspx.
Calendar Event List View Control Properties
Like all Sueetie List View Controls, the /Views .ascx support full Intellisense to help you with the Calendar Event List Control Properties. They are:
- NumRecords (no default provided for flexibility)
- CalendarID (default = 1)
- CalendarEventTypeID (if not entered, all CalendarEventTypes are displayed)
- ViewName (name of the view.ascx)
- NumDays (Number of days from starting date to include in the list)
- CacheMinutes (default = 5)
- StartDate (in 'mm/dd/yyyy' format. If none enters defaults to current date)
- EventViewType (UpcomingEvents or PreviousEvents)
