Help

First, log into your dotCal workspace by entering your username and password.

After logging in, I'd start by picking a personal theme. You can do this by clicking on the upper right red colored  "themes" link.

There are lots of fun themes to chose from and there are a couple more tabs you can click through that can make your experience better.

1) Click on the "calendar tab" for the calendar you would like to delete.

2) Click the "Pencil" on the right side of the tab.

In any "Grid" view, simply  "double click" in a calendar box or in "List" view click on "Create Event" for that day.

You'll notice a new Event bubble you just created, you can set and edit the Event's settings including Dates, Times, Alarms and Social Networking.

If you want to share a Calendar, (Read Only) with a friend, view the calendar you want to share in your dotCal workspace by clicking on its tab.

Click the "SHARE CALENDAR," button on the left under "dotCal Connect."  You'll be presented with a screen to put in your friend's email address and a place for a personal message.

Your friends will be sent a live calendar by email and a direct link to your selected that they can use in their calendar programs.

1. Getting Started

2. What should I do FIRST?

You can publish a calendar in several ways. The term publish means allowing someone else to see your calendar. We sure the term Share as well to mean 1-way outwards publishing.

You would want to publish or share a calendar for several reasons.

- You want to show a dotCal calendar or dotCal Mashup calendar on a website.  For this case you would use a dotCal Embedded Calendar.
