Group Monthly Calendars

This article shows you how to access the monthly calendar just for a specific group.

A monthly view of events is accessible on an Insight web site at the Calendar/Month.aspx address e.g.http://www.example.com/Calendar/Month.aspx. This page can be accessed by selecting the Calendar option below the Home menu option.

Sometimes you may want a monthly calendar for a specific group. You can configure the calendar component in a layout to display a link to a monthly calendar view of events in the same group as that specified in the component. However, if you want to link to a monthly calendar that has slightly different setting from the calendar component you can create a link to a url with the following syntax to get the precise monthly calendar view you require:

http://{domainname}/Calendar/Month.aspx?ChildGroups={true or false}&group={group_id}

e.g.http://www.example.com/Calendar/Month.aspx?ChildGroups=true&group=111111

Note:The group id can be accessed as follows:

Select the group within Site Manager in the Web Office
Next select the Summary tab and then scroll down to open the Advanced Options
Within the Advanced options select the Edit the page title and meta tags for groupname task and a new page will be displayed shortly afterwards.
At the top of the page is the direct URL to the page, this contains a number for the group id, copy and paste this number into the URL to the monthly calendar you are creating.
