Description
Campus Calendar offers a user-friendly platform for managing events efficiently. One of its key features is the ability for users to submit events seamlessly. This article provides a step-by-step guide on how to submit an event using Campus Calendar.
Instructions
-
Visit the Campus Calendar at calendar.uco.edu and click Submit Event.
-
Select the right calendar for your event under "Submit to Calendar." For multiple relevant calendars, use "Suggest to Calendars" and choose all applicable ones. Consider carefully which calendars your event should appear on. If you have questions, please contact University Communications. You will no longer need to submit to the All Activities and Events public calendar.
-
Begin by providing your name, email, event title, and start and end times. Ensure you include the event's time and date in the correct fields instead of the summary or description.
-
Provide an informative "Brief summary" that potential participants will see. This will appear in the event list as well as the RSS feed. This should be concise and no more than 2 sentences.
-
For additional details, use the "Long description". This does not appear in the RSS feed but will appear on the full event description. In this space you can provide additional information with highlighted details.
-
If your event is online, click the "this is an Online Event" box. Include links for platforms like Zoom and any relevant special instructions for participants. 
-
Assign one or more categories under "Event Type" and choose applicable tags under "Event Tag." 
-
Optionally, attach a photo and caption to your event. Photos or Images must include a caption for use as alt text; this is mandatory for accessibility. Photos must be visual without the use of any text to convey meaning. Upon review of the calendar entry, inaccessible images will be removed. 
- Review all event details and click the "Submit Event" button for approval and upload to the Campus Calendar.
The manager of the calendar to which you've submitted your event will review the submission. They will approve or reject your submission, or contact you if they need more information about the event.
