The Forum Calendar

[Nephele]

I haven't tried adding anything to the Calendar yet, but when checking it out I noticed there's a choice of "Add New Single Event" as opposed to "Add New Recurring Event." Shouldn't these dates be entered under "Recurring Event" so that they come up on the Calendar each year? Am I mistaken in presuming that "Single Event" will come up on the Calendar only for the year (2008) in which that event was entered, and then you'll have to add it in again next year and the year after? But "Recurring Event" you'll only have to add in the one time?

[Primus Pilus]

I noticed that "Agustus" now is on the calendar within the next 7 days. However a slightly more descriptive name would maybe be useful?

 

Something like: "Title of Augustus bestowed upon Octavian"?

 

Would be useful in general.

 

I edited this entry to say Augustan Settlement. However, if one clicks the item itself one will see that there is indeed a description. I think I like short entries better, it encourages one to be curious and to click...

I agree short descriptions are good for this, the point should be that "Augustus" could refer to at least a dozen different events. Thanks for taking a look at it though

[M. Porcius Cato]

Nice list.
