BuddyPress Group Calendar
This plugin allows you to maintain, update and share upcoming (and past) group events with really swish calendar functionality... plus widgets that display a list of all upcoming events!
Start by reading Installing mu-plugins section in our comprehensive BuddyPress Manual if you are new to WordPress MU.
To install:
1. Download the plugin file
2. Unzip the file into a folder on your hard drive
3. Upload the bp-group-calendar folder in /wp-content/plugins/
4. Activate the BP Group Calendar plugin Site-Wide on the Plugins admin page if using WPMU
Upgrading To 1.1:
Due to differences in file structure in 1.1, please follow these steps to upgrade:
- Deactivate the plugin
- Completely delete the bp-group-calendar folder
- unzip the new bp-group-calendar folder to wp-content/plugins
- Activate the plugin again
To Use:
After activating the plugin, you will see the Calendar menu item in the navigation for each group where you are a member. There you will be able to manage and edit events as well as create new ones.
If you want to display upcoming events in the sidebar or footer or any other widgetized area of your theme, go to Appearance >> Widgets >> and drag and drop the Upcoming Events widget or Single Group Events widget to your theme's sidebar or other area.
You can edit how many events and what group it will show directly in the widget options.
