For information about how to create or edit a part, as well as the tabs on the Edit Part screen, see Create and Edit Parts.
| 1. | From the Design tab, under General options, enter a name for the calendar in the Calendar title field. |
| 2. | Under Default display, select the default view of the calendar. You can select Calendar view or List view. Website users can always select a different view when they open the calendar. |
| 3. | Under Uncategorized events management rights, select the roles with rights to manage any events not associated with a category. |
| 4. | Under Event categories, select the event categories to associate with the calendar. After you add a category, click Assign rights to the category. The Event Category Security screen appears so you can assign rights to users and roles for the event category. For example, a Soccer calendar may have the Registration, Practice, and Games categories, and only users in the Coaches role can add, edit, or delete events in these categories. Also, when coaches add a new event, they can assign its category from those you select for the calendar. For example, the coach specifies whether the new event is Registration, Practice, or Games. You can use these categories to filter the types of events that appear in calendar groups and calendar highlights. For example, you can set a calendar highlights part to display only events included in the Game category. For information about how to add event categories, see Code Tables. |
| 5. | To include a weblog for the Event Calendar part, select Enable RSS. Additional fields for the weblog appear. |

Also, if your website has a News Reader part, add this link to your news reader so it displays new events when they are posted. For more information about the News Reader part, see News Reader. |
| d. | In the Description field, enter a description for news readers about the types of events posted on the calendar. For example, if your organization supports environmental advocacy, enter “Upcoming Local and National Events Supporting the Environment.” |

| 8. | Under Security rights, define the roles with post and manage rights for the published events. |
| a. | In the Post column, select the checkbox to assign post rights for users and roles allowed to post to the weblog. This does not include rights to edit or delete postings. |
Note: If the list is marked Moderated, posts are pending until a user with Manage rights approves them. A user with Post rights views his or her pending posts, but not those of other Post users. Only users with Manage rights view all pending posts.
| b. | In the Manage column, select the checkbox to assign manage rights for users and roles allowed to add, edit, and delete weblog postings. If the list is marked Moderated, this grants rights to approve postings. |
