Does anyone know of a mod or plug in that would allow users to enter an event and designate it to go to more than one calendar?  Right now, I have a main calendar with all events, and then numerous individual calendars and I have to enter each event twice--once on the main calendar, and then again on the individual calendar.

Thanks!

The "Schedule to All" plug-in available at the Unofficial CalendarScript - Mods and Plugins site will allow an event posted to the default calendar to be posted to all other registered calendars as well. It may be able to be modified to post to other calendars selectively, if that's what you need.

BTW. The 'Meta Calendar' plug-in from that same site would allow all other calendar's events to display on a separate calendar without the need for making duplications.

JFYI

Just finished a plugin that should what you want. If anyone wants to test it out I'd appreciate it.

Right now the header requires a special column name that corresponds to the calendar name column.

Things I'd like to add in the future are:
- Check for exact duplicates - don't add event if it exists already.
- If database name doesn't exist in column, use current session

But for now it does exactly what I want, so I'll use it for the same thing "Hockey Mom" was looking for it to do. I'm also running a Community Hockey Assoc with calendars for multiple teams that have different practice and game times.

I'll keep the current version posted at: www.public-knowledge.com/plugins/Multiple_Calendar_Import.zip

Just made a change to the perl and html files and updated the documentation. Realized that a user needs to have a local privilege to add the events. The new permission for MULTIPLE_CALENDAR_IMPORT allows them to see the command.

Anyways .. the code has been rezipped and updated.

To make it available to see from the menu, the user needs the MULTIPLE_CALENDAR_IMPORT permission after the Plugin has been enaabled.

To be able to run it, they need ADD_EVENT for all calendars (check that option in the third permission column).
