Wondering if the calendar from the example.edu site has been formatted using velocity yet?

   Hi Matthew,

   To my knowledge it has not. Are you just looking to port the existing 5 Formats over to Velocity? If I get some free time I could try and help out.

   These are the ones I am seeing:

   • calendar category view
   • calendar event
   • calendar events view
   • calendar monthly view
   • calendar sidebar

   What version of Cascade Server are you currently running? This may affect how the Formats are written.

   Thanks!

   Hi Matthew,

   I believe I was able to successfully port the Formats over to Velocity, or at least provide a good starting point for each. Please find the attached Zip containing the Velocity Formats.

   Note: I did not port calendar sidebar because I did not see this Format being used anywhere.

   Please let me know if you have any questions.

   Thanks!

   Hi Matthew,

   Just wanted to follow up to see if you had a chance to view my recent comment. Did you have a chance to test the Formats out?

   Please let us know if you have any questions.

   Thanks.

   Hi Ryan, thanks for passing on this information. For the VM version of the calendar should we be porting over the calendar data definitions from our original install examples: example.edu [see attached images]
   OR, have the data definitions been updated over the last 2 years and we need to update ours? I believe our original Cascade install was 2011.
   Cheers.

   Hi Matthew,

   Not a problem at all, I hope the ported Formats were helpful.

   Looking at the code, it looks as though they match up to the Data Definition in your first screenshot. If you are currently using a Data Definition like the second screenshot, you would either need to change the Formats, or change the Data Definition (as you mentioned).

   Please let me know if you have any questions.

   Thanks!
