Is it possible to show who entered each calndar item in the item?

The thinking behind this. We'd like to have a shared calendar on our website that is private to staff.
We have an administrator and field engineers, and it would be useful that when the Engineer fills in his appointments, the administrator can see where each Engineer is.
At the moment they'd just see a couple of entries for 10:00 AM with some descriptions and not know who made the entry.
I will investigate the Colour coding Mod as that would help too I guess if 'Fred' had blue entries and 'Bob' had green

Thanks

This is pretty simple, just look in the "Documentation" section of this website:  

quote:<%= EVENT FIELD(name) %>     Outputs the value of the 'name' field in the event currently defined in the $EVENT variable. For example, 'title', or any other field defined in the Customize Event Fields screen.

In other words, insert this code wherever you wish between the <% FOREACH EVENT %> tags in your default template:
<%= EVENT FIELD(author_name) %>
-- or --
<%= EVENT FIELD(author_id) %>

whichever one you prefer, and that should do it. I taught myself a lot about customizing my installation from those Documentation pages. Just save a backup of your original files in case gremlins sneak in.

For just on the Event Details display, use the Customize Event Fields administration choice and set the Display in details: option to "Yes" for the appropriate field.

For other calendar displays, see musicvid's suggestion.

Woops, I overthought it again, DanO.
Thanks for your quick reply.

Thanks guys

Just to clarify, do I amend the lines that are like this:
<A HREF="<%=$CGI_URL_QUERYSTRING%>view=Event&event_id=<%= EVENT FIELD(id) %>" CLASS="gridtext"><%= EVENT FIELD(title) %></A><BR>

...or something else?

** do I amend the lines like...  **

If that's where you want the information printed. The <%= EVENT FIELD(title) %> tag prints the event title.
