Any event added to the list view, automatically links to a live event page.

If you've already added an event, click through twice, and you will be directed to the event page.

The list widget is designed in Flash, and is not compatible with HTML formatted text. You can link to your event page and add HTML formatted text under # 5 "Add an HTML description".

2. Under "Select widgets for this page", de-select "RSVP options" (Second field)

What are the specific dimensions you need for your calendar?

Anna replied on April 15, 2008 22:58 to the discussion "How do I add a calendar to my website?-new boxed calendar" in Spongecell:

I would suggest trying our list widget, which can be customized to smaller dimensions than the boxed calendar.

Here is a PDF on how to customize a list widget:

Spongecell can support as many events as you have going on at any given time; 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7..etc.

The article above, is highlighting your ability to create a distinct calendar, to manage each respective event.

For example, you may create one calendar to promote 4 upcoming concerts(4 unique events) for "musician A", and create a second calendar to promote 11 upcoming concerts (11 unique events) for "musician B".

How to email a Flyer: Promoters

The aim of any email is to get people to start talking and generate some buzz around your event, and using our add to life tools will not only start some conversations, but build your list too!

1. The first step is to create the email content. We offer some templates, or you can use your own.

2. Now, you want to put the power to spread the word in the hands of your readers. Choose one or all of the add to life tools we offer: interactive calendar and/or list widget announcing all your upcoming events, which give your readers the ability to send email and SMS to friends, who send to their friends, so on an so forth.

3. Customize unique event pages for each individual event, and allow a forum for people to talk it up and give you feedback for future events.

4. You also now have the ability to track who's interested/turnout, using the RSVP graphs, and knowledge of how many emails have been opened the email, re-read the email, and passed the email on to friends.

5. You can attach the flyr to the email, but remember to link the flyr back to the event page you created, so people are directed to another location to take advantage of the interactive tools!
