I’m not seeing any specifics on this for Spider. Is this an option in the free version?
Thank you so much!

]]>The plugins I’ve tried generally seem to be designed to be used by a site displaying only a few dozen events, but they might still work. Exporting seems to be a bigger issue. Is there any way to take the contents of the exported .csv or .xml file and make it into nice paragraphs, like you’d use when placing a file into a print layout program like inDesign? Or maybe more importantly, has anyone done this? Whenever I bring this up I hear things like “sure, text to tables” (for inDesign) or “there’s got to be something with XML that will work” etc. Or else something about Word macros or writing some sort of script.
Is that what’s needed? Do we need to hire someone to write a script? Something more extensive? Another member of our organization recently spoke to two different programmers about doing a calendar program from scratch. They wanted around $15,000 or $20,000. I don’t think that’s necessary, but neither can I find a solution myself.
Like I said, there must be many people in this situation — small- to medium-size publishers using WordPress sites, hoping to use the website to host their calendar database. Am I missing something or is there currently no elegant solution to this?
]]>1) I have a specific group of people whom I want to allow to post events to the group calendar. Such that all users can see which members of the group are doing what things on what days. Obviously sometimes there will overlap (multiple members will have events on the same day) which is the idea of the group site. BUT someone looking at the overall calendar should be able to see all events from all members including the days in which there are multiple events occurring.
2) each of the members is authorized by me and must have their own profile that they can maintain/change their theme etc.. to customize for their look as they wish.
3) each of the members should be able to share their calendar on their own website, NOT the group calendar but rather their own individual calendar so that THEIR members can view only their events etc.
So this maybe more than a simple calendar app/plugin I dont know but would love some feedback and advice on the topic.. thanks
As well, I’m willing to pay for a commercial/upgraded version of a calendar app but it has to be affordable as this is a non profit..
thanks

]]>The model is a school (the parent site) and all the departments within the school having their own child sites that other departments can’t get into, that they can customize the look of, have their own unique plugins etc. We don’t need any kind of social networking (forum boards, groups, friends lists etc) for the users.
We are looking for a global calendar however. Something each child-site can put their own events into, yet all show up on the parent site.
I’ve dug around and installed “The Events Calendar” by Modern Tribe. I can see that site ‘A’ can give any other site permission to post on site ‘As’ calendar, but it isn’t ‘global’.
Does anyone know off hand of a calendar that can do this… or point me in the direction of pulling in all the events of the child-site calendars into the parent calendar (ICS or RSS)?
I’m not a programmer but have done my share of backwards engineering on WordPress things. My boss is a ColdFusion programmer so she has a good deal of experience, just not in PHP.
